Eggstreme Eggdrop



It's really unfair to all the other kids to be this cute.




Last Saturday me and Heaven got our Pre Easter on at Immanuel Baptist's Eggstreme Eggdrop. It was much more organized this year, but when you're dealing with hundreds of kids, thousands of eggs and a few crazy excited parents like myself...there is only so much organizing you can do. In short, it was a total and complete madhouse...like last year but with straighter lines.


The highlight of the event, as expected is the egg hunt. I really don't know why they call it an egg hunt however because it takes place in a field with literally thousands of unhidden eggs. They're just laying out in the open for the snatching...and snatched they were! But not before a helicopter does a fly over dropping the final eggs into the field.


Once the "go" is given, complete and utter madness follows. MADNESS I tell you.


Heaven racked up quite a stash in her egg snatching sprint. She did share with the smaller kiddos who hadn't gotten quite as many.  After the egg craziness had calmed down, we met up with some friends and spent the rest of the time playing games and waiting in crazy long lines for various germ filled bounce houses and slides. Not really my idea of fun, but the kids seem to enjoy it. The pound of candy they each brought home probably didn't hurt either.

Birthday Bash Numero Uno

Pretend It's January 5th, 2013 It's Birthday Season here at the Brandito Lair! Mr. Brandt heads back tomorrow and it's time for the annual triple treat birthday party for Mr. B, Uncle Danny and Annabelle.  Katy made 2 delicious cakes for the event. The boys got their own green cake and Annabelle got her own special Mario Cake.  We had some delicious food and the Birthday people got lots of special prizes!  The UnBirthday Party was definitely a success! 

Baby You're A Firework

One of these outfits was self chosen....the other was chosen by Mama...can you guess which is which?                   Happy 4th of July everyone!!  It was a rainy 4th for us Floridians. But with the rain comes cooler temperatures, and I'll take a little wet over sweat any day.   We started the 4th off by sleeping in (which of course still means we were up by 9...) and then cooked out with the Brandt/Simmons clan for lunch. We'd planned to go to the Riverwalk area too take part in the crafts and whatnot but once the girls heard Ava was already at Nana's house...they could not be persuaded to do anything that did not include being with her.   Cousins                  It was overcast and cloudy all day, but we did manage to escape most of the rain. Until the fireworks that is. I'm talking lite...

Wackiness

  It's wacky hat day at PRE today. Only Annabelle felt inclined to participate as it costs 2 feathers. Heaven said it was a "total waste of feathers" and Gavin said nothing as his only hat is a Seminole hat and he's gone rogue lately claiming suppot for Gators. My dear Annabelle made up for both of their lack of sense & style.  She is both Fancy in my large sunhat and Fabulous in her FSU Friday decor.   Doesn't get much better. Happy Friday!
