Easter egg huntin'

The first grade class Easter egg hunt was held in our yard this afternoon. It was a wonderful, sunny day, perfect for this activity.

John, Mary Ellen and I hid an entire box of eggs, including three special "golden" ones whose finders would win prizes.



The kids searched high and low and found all the regular eggs very quickly.



The golden eggs were much more difficult to find (I hid them really well!), but Jamie, Jesus and Emily eventually succeeded.



After the hunt, the kids enjoyed a picnic of juice, fantastic gooey cupcakes, and (of course) some hard boiled eggs in every color of the rainbow.



And (also of course) here's the obligatory group photo.



It was a fun afternoon. Happy Easter, in advance!
