Hunting for Eggs

Today was our city's Easter Egg Hunt. It is always crazy with hundreds of kids greedy for lots of eggs, but we go and have fun anyway! Our kids were in 3 different age groups this year, but thankfully Jonah is independent enough to go to his field and do his thing. He found some friends from preschool and hung out with them. Mike helped Silas get set for his field. And, I stayed with Lydia on the 0-2 field.

Lydia waited so patiently for the hunt to begin

She did a great job of picking up eggs to put in her basket - she often picked up 3 at a time!

Jonah won a prize - a piggy bank. At our hunt, most of the eggs are empty and you turn them in for a treat bag, but a number of eggs on each field have prize numbers in them that the kids redeem for certain prizes. 

By far, Silas picked up the most eggs. He didn't find any prize slips, but he was happy to receive his green treat bag.

It was a beautiful day!
