Easter Hat Parade


As Megs and Christopher were off on their country road trip over Easter, we had our Easter festivities on Wednesday night. It kicked off with an Easter hat parade..

Everybody put in a sterling effort:-

Megs and Christopher who put in hours of creativity to come up with these creations:


Tim who did amazing paper folding techniques to come up with this samuarai hat:


Dad .. who did amazing things with scissors and manilla folders:

Jenny, who did amazing things with paper,ribbons and easter eggs:

Millie, who had an amazing knitted cat creation:

and me: who did amazing things with 2 bucks from the $2 shop!!

The hat parade ( around the kitchen and lounge room) was followed by an easter Egg Hunt in the garden. As it was already dark, we had torches and lolly bags and scavenged in the dark. Everybody, but Christopher in particular, (who was experiencing his first ever hat parade/ easter egg hunt) was very excited by finding some hidden treasure!.

This was all followed by an easter feast .. everybody's favourite ..paella and a summer pudding for dessert.

and to finish..a movie of the table decorations:)..(riveting, I know!!

o and by the way... there was an enormous amount of chocolate!!
