Easter Egg Hunt

I'm so happy that it is finally spring... otherwise, today would have been a total waste! A local church has been advertising an Easter Egg Hunt through the school (only in the south!) for the past few weeks. Brennan has been dying to go; he practically paid me to take him! He's been reminding me of this since Monday, so I couldn't disappoint!

The egg hunt was held at the school, hence why they could advertise for it, at 3 o'clock today. It was PERFECT weather... not hot, not cold, and not windy. We got there early and it killed Brennan to have to stand back and wait. He really, really just wanted to go at all of the eggs! While we were waiting for it to start, we decided to practice with Nolan. He was very quick to figure out the pick-up put-in-basket idea, but only for the plastic eggs, not for the candy. While we were practicing, a lady from the local paper asked if she could take his picture, so maybe my baby will be in the paper tomorrow!

When it was finally time to find the eggs, I watched Brennan while Don helped Nolan. Brennan went NUTS! He was running around like a chicken with his head chopped off! While I may not agree with his methods of doing things, he was very successful. He managed to fill up his entire basket with eggs and candy~ yeah for me!?! While I was having a hoot watching Brennan, I guess Nolan wasn't having any part of the hunt. Don said that he collected a few at first, but when other kids got too close, Nolan just walked away and was done with the whole thing! And all the while, Ian just watched from my arms, enjoying the perfect day!
