Neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt in March

 Our neighborhood did an Easter Egg hunt for the kids at our church.  It was super organized.  Everyone donated a bag or two of wrapped candy.  The day before, some moms got together to fill the eggs and count them.  The person in charge made sure everyone was told how many eggs to find.  It was nice cause not one child could hog all the eggs.  
 When Kyle heard there was candy involved....he was right there.

 Waiting patiently while they hid the eggs
 I was trying to do a fun pic in his Easter basket... and well he's too big for it.
 Lined up for head count and quick pictures
 Go....It was going to be outside, but in Utah we had snow the morning of the egg hunt.  So, the church was a great back up plan.  It was fun to chase the girls and get pictures of them finding eggs.  Everyone could find 11.
 Emma looks like she is bee lining it to an Egg.
 Come on Ellie you can reach them.
 Candy always brings a smile to this girl's face.
 Ellie was also all grins.

 Afterwards, the kids had to dump the candy out of their eggs and give the eggs back, but keep the candy!
 I had to take a few picks up Porter with eggs.  At this time he was doing more of a scoot to get around.  It was still effective though.

 Such a fun activity for the girls
Eating their spoils!  We are so glad to have been a part of this fun neighborhood egg hunt.  I told the girls they were going to get some good practice before the Easter bunny came.  They sure did!
