Easter Egg Hunts

It was a weekend full of Easter egg hunts - a whopping total of four!

It started Saturday with a quick egg hunt at the Blackhawk Plaza.  We did this a few years ago and it was a lot more organized, but not as much fun.  Previously we went store to store to get an egg.  This year it was a mad rush to find eggs hidden throughout the plaza - but the problem was trying to contain about a hundred little kids for an hour while they hid eggs.  However if you came late like we did, you missed that you're supposed to sit aside and not look for eggs... oops.


Eventually we figured out we needed to join the crowd and wait.  And what chaos it was after they let the kids loose!


After we found about a dozen eggs, we got ready to go home and get ready for the long day ahead.


Which included dying eggs for the Easter Bunny to find.


That's an egg with Chewbacca drawn on it.

Then the next morning it was Egg Hunt #2 - the real one courtesy the Easter Bunny.  Of course Drew scored with some loot in his basket.


And it seems the Easter Bunny had trouble escaping after leaving his gifts and hiding the eggs...

 ...he left a little bit of his cotton tail behind and dropped some jellybeans in the process!


The "egg in the toilet" (magnet that is) was Drew's favorite egg find of the morning.

And then Drew realized what happened to Mr. Easter Bunny...


After hunting for eggs at home, we had to hurry up and get ready for church where we were having breakfast and Egg Hunt #3.



And in our whirlwind weekend, after Church we went strait to Grammy and GrampC's for Easter Dinner and egg hunt #4!

Drew and Adrina had a blast looking for eggs.


I adored my Easter find - little Miss Avery.



Drew scored big this weekend and found some money in his eggs that is burning a hole in his pocket.  We promised him he could spend it, but he had to count it first so he knew how much he had.
