10,000 EGGS






So I was a little skeptical about filling 10,000 plastic Easter eggs, but it happened! Pastor Lori, our ever-fearless Children's Pastor at Jordan Creek Family Church, had this vision of a community egg hunt, and she pulled it off. Even at only 28 degrees outside, and a windchill making it, oh!, so much colder!, she pulled it off. There were more than 200 people there, and had it been a nice, warm, sunny Saturday in April, there would have easily been twice that many. Our nieces, Manndy & Mackenzie, walked down from their house and brought friends, too. It was great! But Pastor Lori says..."Next year, we're doing this in Jamaica!"
Oh, but be sure to check out the DM Register website for more pix...including a super-cute one of Isabella in bunny ears:)
