Easter egg hunt

We went to a state park for an Easter egg hunt on Saturday. It was packed, so Benjamin had some problems finding eggs. He found a couple, and then the older kids started emptying their eggs of candy. Some of them were throwing the empty eggs on the ground, and Benjamin thought he hit the jackpot then! He was even picking up broken, cracked eggs. It was cute to see his excitement.

No eggs yet!


A small sampling of the crowd.

We weren't sure how Benjamin would react to these large bunnies, since he's never really been around these kinds of things. I figured he'd be afraid, since he's such a cautious little guy. But, no, he wanted to go say hi to the bunnies, and go pet them! This picture, by the way, was taken by a newpaper, so we'll see if he makes it in. (And, no, we aren't "those" parents, who over-dress their child. It really was chilly out, even if you can't tell by looking at the other kids!)
