Egg Hunt

I really enjoyed Egg hunts as a kid and want my kids to have that fun too, but I don't like how every Christian holiday gets overshadowed by secular activities. I want my kids to know the real meaning of Christmas and Easter. As a compromise, Brandon and I decided that we will do an egg hunt on Saturday for the kids so they aren't wanting to rush out of church and find eggs. They can have all that fun the day before and then on Sunday they can be focused on the resurrection of Jesus.

The local radio station had an egg hunt down at the waterfront yesterday and Cayden had so much fun! He kept saying, "more eggs, more eggs." They would let each age group go in and get 5 eggs, 1 of each color and then they had to get out of the area and let the next age group go in. After Cayden was out of the area he kept looking for more eggs (he didn't realize it was only in the one area) so we just threw the same eggs back on the ground and he had fun finding them again-this age group can be so fun:)

He was pleasently surprised to find they had "num nums" in them. :)
