Neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt

The weather was beautiful this weekend so we had lots of outside time! Daddy and Ethan got to play some golf and Mommy and Caden got to go for a run. Then we grilled hamburgers and hot dogs with 5 other families on our block on Saturday and enjoyed our neighborhood Easter egg hunt on Sunday after church.

Before we headed down to the pavilion, Mommy attempted to get a picture of the boys in their Easter outfits from Mimi.
 And another attempt with "cheese faces" once we got down there.
 It wasn't too long before the first egg hunt began and Ethan was off!
 Our lovely little Miss Lauren helped Caden with his Easter basket so Mommy could take pictures. So thankful that she loves our boys!
 Ethan actually looking :-)
 The Easter Bunny came to visit and Caden wasn't too sure what to think of him...
 Still thinking about it and checking him out...
 Mommy is about to get a new lens for her camera and shots like this will be SOOO much better in the future.
 Ethan wasn't too sure about the Easter Bunny either, but he didn't run away...
 And then there was SUCCESS!
 Caden still wasn't sure what to think, though
 After we opened up our eggs and got all of the goodies out, Caden was excited to have a treat!
 One of Ethan's eggs had the Golden Ticket in it so he got to trade it in for a prize. He chose a carrot-shaped foam rocket and it was MOST definitely the hit of the egg hunt after everyone had finished.
All in all, it was a fun-filled day with egg hunting, playing on the playground, decorating Easter sugar cookies, and playing toss with the rocket. Two little boys were ready for naps after that!
