Could you be any slower?

No I'm not talking about Andrew. His name is Adam. He is the world's slowest bag packer! We went to get a nice Easter lunch and an hour later left the shops with hundreds of bags in hand. Adam took great care to slowly place a maximum of 3 items in each bag while slowly scanning and checking the price. As thoughtful as Adam was in looking out to see if we got the best deals, we wanted to let him know that we are bargain shoppers and already selected each of the 8 bags of Easter eggs because they were 50% off. But we can't be too harsh on Adam as he did greet us as we placed our items on the register. He was very original in his choice of phrase and went with  "Hi, how are you today!". We finally arrived home to find poor Emily waiting on our door step. We quickly explained it was all Adam's fault and then tucked into our hot chicken, potato salad, pasta salad, bread and Kathy's modern lettuce (which was kept in the biggest bag ever! Check it out below - is it massive or what?!)

 

Emily made my day when she offered to hide our Easter eggs and we had our very own Egg hunt. Picture this. 3 very calm, uncompetitive Jacksons searching for chocolate in the backyard...and no Andrew did not win! If we thought this egg hunt was challenge, then we had no idea what was in store for us at the Joyce's house. Sam (aka Bilby hider extraordinaire) wanted to give us a 'challenge'! Andrew was first to find his under a bush and buried under a foot of dirt. Next was Al, and she found hers in one of the hundred bushes in their botanical garden of a backyard. Last of all was me, and I don't know why I didn't find it sooner...I mean it was only buried deep down in the reeds by the pond and only took 5 minutes to find after I was told exactly which bush it was hidden in! Well it was worth it for that delicious chocolate bilby. Thanks Sam =) 

PS. Just in case you were wondering, we made it to church today and in fact we were even early!
