Easter EGGstravaganza

I know it's May now, but I'm a little behind. We had a really nice Easter weekend. Saturday the sun was shining and we decided to drive out to the Alpenrose Dairy Farm for their annual egg hunt. We arrived early and had time to get pictures with the creepy looking bunny...although Grace was too scared to get very close. The egg hunting was mayhem. There were kids and parents everywhere. We cleared the fields of candy eggs within minutes of starting. Even though it was pure craziness we had a great time especially since the sun was out. I even participated in the "Mom's hunt". It was the same idea, except that the prizes included much better things...like beach trips, gift cards, and diamonds. I have to say, the adrenaline rush at the start of the hunt was pretty intense. I totally ran over some older ladies who were running out there too slow. :) If I thought the other hunts were over fast...this one was inane. It was over within seconds. Unfortunately, I didn't get any of the "prize" eggs. Maybe next year

The rest of the weekend was pretty low key. We dyed our eggs,the kids enjoyed their baskets of goodies on Sunday morning, and we spent the afternoon at Church celebrating the real meaning of Easter. Afterwards we enjoyed a yummy dinner with family.
