first egg hunt.

 

we're blessed to have awesome friends here that include us in holiday activities, especially with our families living so far away.  saturday was one of those days where we were doubly blessed as we were invited to not one, but two egg hunts.  C had never hunted eggs before so we were giving her a crash course of how things worked at breakfast that morning before heading out. 

getting all the kids lined up for a photo before hand.  how on earth did i not notice the boy with the large basket on top of his head until seeing the photos on my computer?!

 

the hunt was on and she was a natural.  each of the kids were able to find ten eggs each and they all were filled with starburst jelly beans due to a little one's dietary needs.  as C had never had jelly beans before, she thought they were fantastic.

 

the look alikes.  L finally took her first couple of steps on friday night - FINALLY! - so obviously egg hunting wasn't an activity for her.  instead she stayed with daddy and helped cheer on C.

 

after the hunt was over and eggs were emptied into baggies to take home, they were all tossed back into a bin to reuse next year.  L thought it was great fun to take the eggs out of the bin and put them back in C's basket.  and then daddy would put them back in the bin.  over and over and over. 

the second hunt was during L's naptime and we let C skip her nap to attend.  still need to go through those photos...
