It was exciting that the kiddos were at the perfect age to partake in egg hunts this year. We did a little trial run around the house so we'd be ready.
The
first one we ventured to was the TCU egg hunt....it was a sunny day - but brrrrrrrrr -
it was cold and windy!
Brianne seemed to enjoy the hunt and stocked up on lots of goodies.
Bryce
had a melt down as soon as it started - he wanted no part of
it. Lesson learned - do NOT wake up your child from a nap to go to an
egg hunt - they will not be impressed!
It was a great day for a photo with the spring flowers!! The campus was stunning with the sun shining and flowers in full bloom....details that the wind made it a little too cold to fully enjoy!
Egg Hunt #2
We hit up another egg hunt celebration that was hosted by a big local church.Details that it had down poured the evening before this one....so the field was more of a big ol' mud pit - but we braved it and had a good time. Bryce enjoyed this hunt much better than the first one - although the mud on his shoes made him a little cranky.
Enjoying one of his many treats from his hunt!
Somehow I ended up as the one that took the kids up this gigantic inflatable slide. Note in this picture - Brianne is coming down the slide - i'm up at the top and little man is climbing up the stairs/ladder (he almost made it all the way to the top on his own....the last few steps are pretty steep so i helped him a little - but he was quite the climber!) - I also love the Texas Flag in the background. I never would have guessed that I'd be the mom of two little Texans!!
Egg Hunt #3
Last, but certainly not least, was a 'Special Bunnies' egg hunt put on by AT&T Pioneers Fort Worth. They went ALL OUT to make sure this was a fun event for kiddos with Special Needs and their siblings and families. Toys and games galores, multiple egg hunts, real bunnies to pet, the Easter Bunny, face painting, bubbles..... - it was an amazing time! A huge thank you to them for putting this event together - we will certainly be hoping to attend next year!
Bryce was a professional egg hunter for this one...there is just something that cracks me up about a little kid lugging around a basket as he fills it with plastic eggs. Brianne really didn't have time for the egg hunts - she was more excited about the giant inflatable hamster ball type toys and the bubble station and the baby pools filled with foam blocks...there was so much to do here!
My little basketball star! She loved this!
Some of our loot from this egg hunt! :) The eggs were not only filled with candy, but tickets that you could redeem for various prizes.
