Easter Weekend

Happy Easter!!!

On Saturday morning, we headed to the Easter Egg Hunt at Dinosaur Caves Park in Shell Beach.  The kids had their buckets and were ready to go...

There were plenty of activities to do at the event including see the Easter Bunny.  And sometimes seeing and waving is way better that having to have your picture with him.

It was packed as you can see from the picture and there were a variety of folks from locals to out of towners. (And let's just say you knew who was who)  Addy and I did manage to get a couple of eggs.  B had a little bit of a harder time but a couple of his classmates shared.  

 We also ran into one of Addy's friends and her family.  They opened eggs together

 After the egg hunt we headed home to spend the day in the neighborhood.  We had a neighborhood bike ride complete with a cone slalom until the cops showed up and asked us to get our cones out of the street.  It was kinda of a "buzzkill", so opted for giant bubble making and egg dieing.

As you can see I experimented with wine egg dieing, it didn't go so well but the wine drinking did. 

Thanks to the neighborhood Easter bunny, there were baskets on the doorstep for the kids.  They loved all the goodies, especially the grenade complete with sound effects.

The kids opened Easter baskets from Grandma and Poppa and again with the Schafer family.  There were plenty of goodies to keep them busy.  And Addy seemed to find everyone's candy all afternoon.

 We finished up the day with an egg hunt in the front yard.

 Mom managed to take this cute pic of the kids.  As for the family picture, we weren't so successful.

 

In the big scheme of things this maybe just be foreshadowing of the many battles to come in the future...
