Egg Hunt 2011

We had an egg hunt the Saturday before Easter at our house.  My parents came and Aunty Raroo and Jordan and Aunt Christy.  The weather was suggesting rain, but no precipitation forced us to the indoors and we were able to hide the eggs and candy outside.  Each of the kids had their own color to find; that was fun because we took the liberty of hiding Ryanne and Mckay's eggs in really hard places.  In the end we found all but one of Mckay's, which still hasn't turned up. 

Here they are bursting to get out the door so they can find

and eat

their candy.

But Mom makes them all wait for pictures first.

Duh! Can we get the photo thing over with?!

We want candy!

Ok, Ok! We'll smile if you'll release us

from your grip afterwards!

Mckay finds an egg atop the swing set.

Can he reach it?

He couldn't get it by jumping, so he resorts to climbing.

Ryanne The Tall finds an egg atop the wall.

"Eww! I can't believe you hid one of my eggs in the

rabbit poop!

Leah counts her treasures.

Now she is off to find more with Jordan close behind.

I found this in the garden!

Did it grow here?

Jordan . . . stre-e-e-e-e-tch!

Is he getting the egg with his foot?

I guess he got it, down he goes.

Wes and Christy watch the fun.

Mckay is taking a sugar break--nothing like eating

half the candy before finding the rest!

Elias runs down along the strawberry patch

looking for goodies.

Leah is counting her eggs again!

Mom! That is soooo D.I.S.G.U.S.T.I.N.G.

You can't hide easter eggs in the cat litter box!
