Easter Egg Hunt at the Park - 2022

The day before Easter, we headed down to the park to join in the annual Easter Egg Hunt with neighbors. Samantha decided that she didn't want to participate this year, but offered to help scatter the eggs around (including the valuable golden eggs!) an hour or so prior to the event.   

I had high hopes that it would be much warmer this year because it was a later date than usual (April 17th, to be exact), but one look at the weather app, told me that we would be out of luck.  We bundled in sweatshirts, gloves and warm socks and made the best of it.  

The boys each had their first flag football game later that day, so they were sporting their respective team jerseys:



All lined up and ready to go!


And ... they're off!


Jack ran to the far edge of the park to score those eggs while others were busy picking up eggs near the starting line.  Smart thinking!


There are ALWAYS eggs hidden near and inside the pirate ship, so Sophia started there first.


I love this picture.  It makes it look like James is the only one out hunting for eggs, but he clearly had lots of other competition based on the starting line up.  The others were just preoccupied in other areas of the park.  Ha!




Obligatory picture for Mom by the lake ... freezing their tails off in mid-April:
