A few years back the Corry's (My husband's side of the family) created what came to be known as the Eggstravaganza". Now, it is a yearly tradition loved and looked forward to by all. Here's a peek into it :)
It starts out with a massive egg dying party. We are talking dozens upon dozens of eggs. Everyone gets to die 6 eggs each and make them as creative as they want. This year, Jacob (I have ever mentioned my husband's name here before??) and I decided to show our true colors in our eggs.
He opted for his alma-mater, and of course, he is wearing the matching t-shirt.
I on the other hand, opted for my little passion. One "I love Quilting" egg, and one Mod-Podge-esk fabric flower egg. That little egg has 7 different fabric lines on it :) I thought it was just so cute, and actually quite fun to make ;)
After the kids are done it's on to the adults. Here are the eggs in the Adult Royal Rumble!!! Can you spot my fabulous Fabric egg??
And here are all the adults down on hands and knees watching their eggs spin in the Royal Rumble. Isn't it just awesome how we can be kids all over again!! I love it!!! I didn't go far in the Adult tournament but no matter, like we tell the kids, all that matters is that you have a good time :) And we all had a great time!!!

ReplyDeleteThat is awsome! And I have to say for here in the north kind fo practical as it is often very cold to do a hunt! (not this year, but in years past)

ReplyDeleteHow fun! and tell your hubby GO COUGS! :P
ReplyDeleteI love your egg tradition. We have one using the plastic eggs. After all the candy is out and baskets cleaned up, we have our annual Egg Wars where the kids and their dad chase each other around the house throwing the eggs at each other. It is hilarious!
Looks like lots of fun and I like your husband's style. Go Utes!!
