Easter Egg-stravaganza!


I love how kid friendly our neighborhood is! Between the annual Egg Hunt, Spooky Playground, Block Party, Santa Visits and The Fall Fest, it seems like there is always something for the kiddies to do. And somehow I am involved with the planning and execution of all of them! The Egg hunt is a pretty big undertaking, two age separated hunts, Easter Bunny visit, tattoo stations, cupcake decorating, Easter grass planting, and treasure hunting. Phew! We must have stuffed at least 800 eggs last night. Last year Jasper was sooooo into the Easter Bunny, wanted to pet her and sit on her lap, this year- not so much. The cupcakes and egg hunting were calling.

Jasper being wary of the bunny, but he really wanted an "Easter carrot."

Carrot or cupcake?
Amazingly, the carrot wins, 4 carrots consumed vs. 1 cupcake top.
The 4 and unders patiently waiting.


He has no idea of the chaos that will ensue.

Now, I don't really have photos of the actual hunt, there was a bit of a trampling. By the time Jasper recovered and wanted to try to get eggs, they were mostly gone. :( But we found a golden egg hidden in the play house and that remedied the situation.

And another carrot...

And hanging out with good buddies...

And by the end of the day all was good again.
