Of Easters Past...........

  I was watering a few plants that have managed to stay alive in all of this heat the other day, and I made a little discovery.

  I found this yellow plastic egg sticking out of the ground so I dug it out. It seems it must have been left there 2 or 3 Easters ago when we hid eggs with money in them for the grands. 
  I know for sure we didn't do this the last 2 Easters so it could even be longer. I do remember the first time we did this after Cayden was big enough to hunt with the older boys that Cayden made the statement, "Where's the candy?" LOL His mama was saying, "Forget the candy, and get the money!" 
  It was half filled with dirt, and came to a total of $1.61. 
 I might need to go back and hunt some more!

OMG, that is like a time capsule... I wonder how many more you have hidden? A few more of those and you can splurge at Starbucks.

My wife hides plastic eggs with money in them for our grandkids. I going to dig around to see if they missed any. I can use all the change I can get a hold of these days :-)

That happens to me when I change seasons and get clothes out that I haven't worn in a while - I can typically find $5 or $10 in a pocket somewhere - it always makes me feel like I won a prize - even though it was my money to begin with that I forgot about.

Oh well ~ simple pleasures :-D
