Terry gave them a hard time. At 16, 17 he would hide plastic eggs out on the back acre just to get them to hunt for them. He video taped them. He got such a kick out of it. How'd he do it? Filled the eggs with money of course. What else would have worked for a teen?!! LOL

I don't think they found the "bunny" but they surely got a wild "hare" and itched at the opportunity to hunt the money-laden eggs that had been hidden by their Easter "buddy" Dad! lol I should bring video tapes with me when I come to Calgary! Ryan would choke me. lol

Would anyone like to share old pictures of the kids. How about one of yourself when you were little?

We'll use really old pics of the kids, so no one will recognize them today.

If you can't get yours on the Net, email them to me, and I'll create a link.

Should we do Easter pictures?

Joan

Catie, Bob and I were cracking up at Terry's Easter Egg hunt. Funny. :)

If I do then I will send them your way, postage-paid return. I have the equipment to do it, I just don't know how to do it. Sorry.

Barb, do you have any of you as a kid dressed in fancy clothes. If not, any old outfit will do. :)

I have one or two of me and my sisters on Easter. Fair warning--I wasn't cute even as a kid. :)

tis a curse to be so blessed with beauty and a great body. *sigh*

My pictures of ME are not of Easter. I have but a few of me as a wee child because of a house fire. However, I do have some of my own children with their baskets.

I'd like to see you as a little kid, even if it's in a bikini. (I will have to post my bikini pic now :) ).

Billy and I are going to lunch now. If I have energy later today, I'll dig up my old pics and post them here.

if you could kindly return them to me. I'll send a small m/o to cover costs of returning them. Now I have to hunt down some decent ones...but I don't know if I have any with me "dressed up." What do you think, Joan?

That sounds great! Any outfit is fine. I bet you guys were adorable kids. :)

Pics of your kids when they were tiny would be fun, too.
