Mom, dad, and I walked to my grandparent's house for an Easter family gathering. This morning, my folks went to church with their running group buddy and I'm happy to say... I wasn't dragged along. My dad was FORCING me to go, yet when 7:45 AM rolled around and I had to wake myself up to take a pee, mom told me I didn't have to join them.
Hallelujah!
The weather was MARVELLOUS! Before the parents and I even walked through the front door, the family had hidden the eggs for my younger cousins, Jaylee and Brendan, to search for them. But! They didn't want to start until we were there! So! Once outside with everybody else, we gave them a thumbs up that they were O.K. to begin their scavenge!
It was fun to give Jaylee and Brendan hints as they walked about the back yard, endlessly peaking in bushes or up in tree branches! I remember doing Easter egg hunts when I was younger; their age. I never could find the Golden Egg.
For those of you who never had an Easter egg hunt with a Golden Egg, the Golden Egg held money inside of it. Usually, I couple bucks! I believe I stopped Easter egg hunting when I turned 13. Felt like the game was a tad unnecessary... Especially since I couldn't find the Golden Egg.
Boy, would I get jealous over whomever found that Golden Egg. I don't think I talked to them through the entire day! Haha!
I stayed in the sun the whole time we were hanging out. I got burned a little on my arms. That's okay. Not as bad as this one time when Mason and I went to Lincoln Park. I was a frickin' LOBSTER!! I passed out, too, once I was home. Hardly had any water. It was scary... My legs and arms swelled up the next day. I couldn't walk. It felt like I had wrapped water bags around my ankles.
The day my limbs became bloated, Mason ran all the way to my house (a 30 minute walk), while it was RAINING, just to say Goodbye and check to see if I were doing fine. He was heading to Oregon for a month. It was the first time we cuddled in my bed. Such a privilege! Hehe. :)
Tomorrow, I start school... Am I excited? Kind of! I get to learn about the Solar System finally! I've always been a curious person about Space and planets - stuff like that. I think it's WAY cool.
Anybody else believe that there is life beyond ours out in the middle of some galaxy???
