Cascarones.

On Saturday night we took Elena over to do a little egg hunt with our good friends and also her buddy CJ. They had a blast looking for eggs, even though it was a little chilly!
Elena kept getting distracted by dandelions! :)
So what exactly is a cascarone? It is an egg shell filled with confetti! I had never heard of this tradition until I met my hubby whose family always does them. On an egg hunt when you find a cascarone you are supposed to smash it over someones head. It is supposed to be good luck for you and them!! Elena thought this was the greatest thing ever!
Elena and CJ ran all over looking for eggs. Elena kept asking if she could crack the plastic and real ones on people heads too! Silly girl!
A couple of times I even caught her cracking her own egg on her head! Lol!

What a fun tradition that we will definitely be doing every year!
