The Lodge Easter Party
The Lodge Easter Party was held on March 25th, where we started off snacking and watching the movie, “Trolls”. We chatted for a bit while the eggs were being hidden. We could also guess how many jelly beans were in a jar. Girls who attended were Katie, Dalanie, Isabella, Joella, Jazmyn, Maribel, Sami, Lilli, Gigi, Allison, Eliza and me. Then the adults passed out baskets for collecting our eggs. We all lined up by the door, but the younger kids went first. Mom Paula made the rest of us sing our ABC’s at a normal pace before we could go outside to find the eggs. There were a lot of people there, so not everyone got a lot of eggs. Sadly, I am not a fast runner so I only got a few eggs, but I didn’t mind. A couple younger kids stayed out longer because they wanted to see if there were any eggs hidden in the snow that was still outside (there wasn’t).
When we got back inside, Dad Clancy turned “Trolls” back on and we all got some food. The jelly beans were probably one of the most popular deserts because they ran out really fast. Though there were no golden eggs this year, there still were some regular colored eggs with money inside them. I even got one! Some kids traded candy, and then we all emptied our eggs and put them into a container so they could be used again next year. Then, the winner of the jelly bean guessing contest was announced. Vanessa won the guessing contest and got a chocolate bunny, which she gave to Ella, one of the Pledges. I had a great time at the party and I have been enjoying my candy.
