Easter Egg Hunt

 Clearly the kids were so excited about taking pictures with their parents yesterday. 
 Our egg hunt got cancelled because of rain saturday so we had one before church yesterday.  Brent and I got there early so we could help put out all the eggs and while the boys watched Colin exclaimed that it wasn't a hunt.  We had lied to him - it was an egg run since the eggs were just put out in the middle of a huge empty field. So then he started to announce to the kids as they started arriving that they had all been lied to and it wasn't an egg hunt. I had to stop that fast.  Oh Colin....next year we will have a real egg hunt and make you work for your eggs. 
 It didnt stop him from having fun.  He ran to a spot where none of the other kids were and filled his basket pretty fast.
 Which is funny to me because Colin could care less about the candy. We still have valentines candy in his bag that he wont eat. Hes not a big sweet person - Joel and Norah are and will probably eat the candy Colin doesnt get to. 
 Norah found a piece of chocolate on the ground when she was helping me put out eggs for the next group of kids. 


 So then she went with the older kids and not her age group.  She found a few eggs and put them in her basket. 

 It was hard to get her to go get more eggs since she was so proud of those 3 or 4 and then opened them and started eating them. 

 I think she realized when she sat down with the boys she probably should've gone to get more eggs
 But thats ok since Joel and Bubba found plenty. 
She'll just try to help herself :)
