No Such Thing as a Bad (Easter) Egg (Hunt)
It's the eve of Easter weekend, are you still 'scrambling' to figure out your weekend activities? Never mind the fun, what about the cleaning, the big Easter dinner, the brunch, the dessert, the entertaining, the crafts... all the preparation that just snuck up on us. Like a mini-Christmas, with pretty much the same weather. ;)
Here's the quick and dirty lowdown on all the hunts that will be held in White Rock, Surrey, and Langley this weekend. If you're like us and still trying to fit in a nap here and there, don't worry there are plenty of activities that will still get you in and out before and after that cherished window of time.
For ease of planning, I've broken down the activities by date. If activities are being held on more than one day over the weekend, I've simply re-listed it. If you're like me, you want to see your event possibilities unfolded in front of you rather than remember when which events are taking place and where. I used to call my inability to keep dates and places straight "baby brain", but it turns out this date/place confusion is permanent damage... now I just call it my mom brain.
