Easter Egg Hunt

We went to an Easter egg hunt yesterday.  It was a lot of fun for the kids.  Unfortunately, it was the coldest day we have had in a few weeks and it felt brutally cold compared to the warm weather we have had recently.  They certainly did not mind at all though!  

Egg hunts are so funny...the kids wake up in the morning and keep asking, "Is it time to go yet?", everyone gets ready, we head to the hunt and wait anxiously for it to begin.  Then it is over in less than a minute.  C took off immediately and gathered lots of eggs and candy, while R was looking for the perfect egg - she wanted pink!  Luckily, she found a pink egg; phew!  C was very generous and shared his candy with R (proud Mommy moment)!



Then we waited in a really long line to see the Easter Bunny.  We tried to convince the kids that we could go visit the EB at the mall, but they really wanted to see THIS bunny, so we waited.

We couldn't get pictures like this at the mall, and we could never beat the price (it was all free).  It was worth the wait.

I'm glad they had a blast even though it was so cold.

You got the best pictures with the Bunny!!

I love how R had to look for a pink egg-that is so sweet. What's the sweetest though is C sharing his candy with her. Don't you love moments like that?! I know you do:-).

Sounds like a very fun morning.

It is all ever with too soon isn't it? This year we're hoping for blue skies for out door egg hunting too.

Bummer about it being so cold! Abby looks forward to our egg hunt every Easter too. It is hilarious how fast it's over.

Cute pics.

Same thing happened to us last year at Operation Egg Drop, way too cold. I think we're skipping the various community egg hunts, and just do one at home this year.
Definitely a better picture at the park than the posed mall ones. So cute.

You're right! We must have been on the same wavelength yesterday. Looks like the kiddos had so much fun! I think your Easter bunny looks a bit more handsome than our Easter bunny, but maybe I just have a case of Easter bunny envy.... ;-)
