We went to a friend's house for brunch and an Easter egg hunt this morning. These are mostly friends that we've made through Poppa's work place and they have kids around Evan's age and a little older (up to 5 y.o.) So we tell Evan we're going to play with his "big boy friends." Unfortunately, we were rained in, so we had the egg hunt indoors. The kids waited in a bedroom while the eggs were hidden. Once that was done, the kids were let loose! Evan did a great job hunting for eggs and soon had a basketful of eggs! Many of the parents were impressed and I said, "We practice at home." They thought it was so funny. Seriously, we've been practicing for the last week. Evan loves it! He learned very quickly that he needs to wait patiently in the other room while we hide eggs in the play room and he comes over only after we tell him we're ready. I remember loving egg hunts as well - telling Mom to hide eggs over and over again; probably through May, long after Easter was over!
Evan was able to find many eggs on his own. There was even a tricky egg that he spotted by himself. He was standing in the living room and looked up. He pointed excitedly and we saw that an egg was "hidden" on the ceiling (attached with some tape.) Good eyes, buddy!
Unfortunately, we forgot to bring our newly-charged camera battery so no pictures this time. We will have another hunt at home when he wakes up from his nap, so will be sure to take pictures then! Stay tuned for Easter Egg Hunt, Part Trois!
