Easter Egg Hunt

We have Easter Egg Hunts like most do.  This tradition came into being after we took our kids to a public Easter Egg Hunt and they ended up with one egg each.  We felt like we could do better. Every year we arrange for the Easter Bunny to drop eggs into our yard.  The Easter Bunny was kind enough to color code the eggs for each child.  For example, Hayley would hunt for just the purple eggs, and the eggs were hidden (difficulty depending on the child).
Here is Emilee showing off the pink egg she just found.  My kids get so excited they will just go in their bare feet.  With church being at 8AM, we had to wait until after church to do the hunt. Luckily I know the Easter Bunny's cell phone number and he texted me when he had left the eggs.

The boys found the jackpot on top of the play fort.  Unfortunately most of the eggs were the little kids.


Samantha found her egg in the tree - notice the one at her feet.  She really got into the Easter Egg Hunt especially after she discovered what laid inside.

You are such a great Mom!! The Easter bunny only comes to Grandma's house. We don't decorate eggs because I hate it. The Bunny knows this, and spares me the grief. :) Do you give classes that can teach me to be more like you?????
