I can't really decide if I like Easter being later or earlier in the year. When it's earlier it seems to sneak up on me, but when it's later it's like I almost forget about it and then BAM! Easter. The upside to it being later is that :fingers crossed: the weather is better for things like Easter Egg Hunts. This year we hit up two Easter egg hunts. The first one is the annual one our neighborhood puts on. It was great weather and the kids had fun. It's especially nice for the younger ones since there aren't a ton of people. The next weekend we headed to Ravenna for their hunt. Rylee and Tenley went first and it wasn't so great. Nothing like good ole Ravenna in the "no parents allowed" hunt and then a million parents scoop their kids up and start grabbing all the eggs from 3 and 4 year olds. Some things never change because the same crap happened when I was like 4 and hitting up this egg hunt. Rylee freaked out upon them saying go and basically stood and cried. Tenley could not have cared less and when I tried to encourage her to grab the eggs by putting one in her bag to show her how to do it, she promptly threw it back out. Egg total: 1. Morgan and Mackenzie's age group was next and there were a ton of kids and it was complete chaos. Morgan ended up with one egg. Not so successful during that hunt.
The night before Easter the girls decorated eggs for the Easter bunny. It really boiled down to Morgan and Rylee decorating and Tenley making a mess. They seemed to enjoy themselves so that is all that matters.
We followed that up with a lovely Easter morning, followed by a wonderful Easter day at my parents house. The girls loved their baskets! They each had a few toys in their baskets and all Tenley could see was candy. She was not interested at all by any toys, because OMG! Chocolate! Happy Easter Everyone!
