Madd Max Has The Annual Easter Scavenger Hunt

 
This time the kids wrote a few clues for each other.
 
A Sam original.
"It's not so clean and not so neat, this is where unwanted refuge meets defeat.  One side rots forever, sealed in gloom, the other finds hope, a second bloom." 
A Max original.
"Under underwear where but not under where underwear."

Madd Max Has A Happy Easter

Maddie woke up first so she could get into her basket before work.
Max followed much later.
Working on his legos.
Then, it was over to the Leonhardts for the annual Findley Easter Egg Hunt (which was relocated due to renovation) - cake by Marissa.
Steve was working on the East Coast.  Everyone sent him "Hi"s, and enjoyed the plentiful spread.
Sun protection comes in many forms.
The hunt began with the little ones.
And then opened up for the big ones.
