Enjoying the Festivities...

Saturday morning we woke up early and got ourselves ready to go have some Easter fun.

The Washington City Easter Egg Hunt.

We arrived just in time for the candy hoarding to begin.

10 am sharp!

They had different areas for the different age groups. 

0-2, 3-4, 5-6 and so on.

Each boy was in a different group.

While waiting for Grandpa to park the car & come find us, 

I was holding Crew at Landens age group. 

Just as the whistle blew for the egg hunt to begin Crew wanted out of my arms and had thrown himself into a complete body spasm.

Grandpa arrived just in time and grabbed Crew from my arms to get him over to his age group.

With him gone I can now focus on Landen and Grandma Nette was with Cody.

All the kids are running out into the square grabbing candy faster then I can blink.

I see Landen still standing on the other side of the starting line crying.

What? Why is he crying?

My boy who thrives on candy? How could this be?

I kneel down to talk to him and find out why in the heck he is not out there getting ME some candy! 

Between sobs he tells me that Crew kicked him in the eye. 

Poor guy.  :(

So I pull him out into the middle of the square and while he stands there crying I am down on the ground getting all his candy for him. 

All the stuff I like, of course!

Then before we knew it, the entire event was over!

We went and found Cody, who was the last one still out in the square wandering around searching for any possible pieces of candy that may have been overlooked!  

Grandpa and Crew joined up with us too. Crew I guess froze when it was time to get candy.

Dan was telling me that there were so many babies & parents

that it was standing room only in the square. 

All the chaos scared Crew.

He did manage to walk away with 2 pieces of candy! :)

And he was happy.

The End.
