Easter in Ecuador

One of Nate's co-workers served her mission in Ecuador and said that it is a tradition for kids to smash confetti-filled Easter eggs over each others heads.
 She gave Nate TWO DOZEN eggs for the kids.

Two dozen seemed like a lot.  Two would probably have been sufficient, right?
In turns out that when we give our boys permission to smash Easter eggs into each others heads, two would never have been sufficient.  They each had a dozen and were devastated when theirs ran out.  It was the highlight of the day!

We had so much fun running around out front and smashing eggs, that we want to start doing it every year!  The kids LOVED it!



After smashing each other for a while, they had to get Mike and Daddy...


And Mom...not only did Saxon smash the egg into my hair, he then had to rub it around for a while and make a complete mess of my hair...





Of course we can't leave out baby Dalton...


My boys are already begging to do it again.
We're definitely making it a tradition!
