The neighborhood that we live in now has an annual Easter egg hunt at the park. We had never been to it before, but thought we'd try it out. It turned out to be a great way to start our Easter weekend. We invited Taylee and Rohne (Sam and Parker's cousins) and some friends of ours that are in our ward. We live close enough to the park that we were able to walk there and bring the kids in the wagon. There were a lot of kids, but no so many that it was too overwelming, which was good. The local firestation, which is right next to the park, drove one of their fire trucks over to the park so the kids could check it out and eventually they hooked up the hose and squirted anyone who was in the mood to get drenched. Mind you...it was 10:00 in the morning and not very warm. Some kids were gutsy enough and had a blast. Samantha got up the nerve and as she was walking toward it, they stopped. She was a little disappointed, but not very. Sam got out there and got quite a few eggs. I thought she'd be a little shy, but I was wrong. Overall, I think it was a success. Samantha came home with tons of candy and some great little toys from the prize table (you got tickets in your eggs that you redeemed for fun little toys at the end!). Very fun!
