Neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt



Since all the neighbor kids (Nick, Sophia, and Kelsie) were going to be around for Easter weekend we decided to have them do multiple Easter egg hunts. This morning was the neighborhood one we planned. Each house had 24 eggs hidden in the front yard and then we let the kids have at it. They all did really well, but they kept following each other instead of spreading out to find the eggs. It took them quite a while to find all the eggs, because we did hide some pretty well. I was pleasantly surprised that there wasn't any fighting over eggs and they all came out with enough to fill their baskets.

Once the three of them had found all the eggs, Kelsie and Sophia started taking turns hiding their eggs for the each other to find. Nick stayed out and searched for a little while, but then he was done so the girls continued to take turns hiding their eggs from each other. We started the egg hunt around 10 and they were still enjoying hiding eggs for each other to find when we finally decided to go in for lunch around noon! It was such a fun morning and it was a great way to keep the kids out playing and enjoying the beautiful weather we had today!
