Welcoming spring and egg hunt in the garden

With lots of kids, we stood eggs, hunted for the cooked (and plastic ones), roasted marshmallows, played music and ate...Oh, and sent good fertility and health vibes to the garden and those we love, especially those who need them the most. Some images (Maya is the one looking like a catburgler) The rest of the photos are here
