The Hunt is On

After we made trails and rolled our eggs down them, we got all ready and lined up the kids for the Easter egg hunt.  The Easter bunny was super sneaky this year and hid them all over the hills, in the trees and under bushes and in the sand.  The kids were really ready and exited and could hardly wait. 
Kasen and Colt were making some pretty wierd funny faces for the camera, oh let the personality shine through:)

 Here they are again in all their cuteness and glory:)
 And another one.
 And another.
 Daisha and Rossi.  Rossi is about 8 months older than Daisha, but the older Daish gets the better they get along and play.  It's going to be fun watching them play and grow up together. 
 Cutie pies. Ready and excited to go hunt for eggs with their cute little buckets.
 Kasen ready to go.  he was a little bugged at mom for making him stop and turn and smile for the camera, he just wanted to go and hunt for eggs.
 Daisha getting the eggs.  She had a little trouble walking in the dirt by herself, and couldn't quite grasp why we were finding eggs in the dirt, but she found a few and was happy.
 Kasen on the other hand was all about running as fast as his little legs could go to try and find as many eggs as possible.  he ended up with a great little basket full.  He didn't really want to go to another egg until he had opened and eaten the candy inside the one he had found, but i convinced him that he justneeded to find a few an then he could have some candy.  he has quite a sweet tooth, just like his mother.




 Here are the boys enjoying their findings. 
 James was throwing stuff at Parker, it was cute as far as throwing things go and he has quite a good little arm for a 2 year old.  He really lets it fly. 
 The crew resting after a good easter egg hunt in the sand. 
 Some more 1 on 1 time with Grandpa enjoying peeps.  I dont really care for peeps, but that's okay, Grandpa and Daisha had a good time enjoying them.
 Yum yum!!

I didn't get any pictures of the older kids hunt.  We also usually have a money hunt, Grandpa and Jerry funded the dollars for the 2 bigger kids to have  their own hunt, and Jerry and I hid the eggs.  It was pretty crazy and hard.  There was alot of money to be found and I would have been motivated to have to find them even though we hid the eggs pretty hard in a pretty large area.  I even climbed up pretty high in a tree and hid one, it was a $10.00 egg, so it was worth the effort.  Even though I gave Parker quite a HUGE hint as to where it was because they were having a hard time finding any of the eggs.  Parker ended up finding the 2 big money eggs, but it was fun watching them and even funner hiding  them, even though I didnt' remember where I hid them, and that ended up being quite a deal towards the end when we really needd to find it so we could go home and enjoy Jerry's famous ribs, and Grandpa's famous homemade root beer. 
  It was a GREAT time at home and enjoying the hills with my family.  so glad i was able to go and spend time with them all, there really is nothing better.
