Easter Egg Hunts

Miss Hope’s preschool had a massive Easter Egg hunt in April. They had 60 preschoolers (from Multiple classes) and some siblings all meet at a park and gather eggs. It was really fun. In the top picture there is a guy with his elbows up. That is our neighbor Josh, who’s son Dallin is in Hope’s class. He was hilarious as he was telling the kids to throw their elbows around to get eggs. As you can see, the kids weren’t really even paying attention to him. Bryce was in class doing his own Easter Egg hunt so just Ethan and Hope participated at the huge hunt. But they LOVED it.

Best Buddy cousins! We had an Easter Egg hunt at both Grandparents houses. I ended up with only a few pictures from Grandma and Grandpa Christensen’s house. The Uncles and Grandpa hid the eggs. What was funny was after 10 minutes of the kids piling eggs into their baskets Hope burst into tears and exclaimed, “Mom! I don’t have any eggs!” It was so funny because she was egg hunting with Sadie who got to the eggs just a little bit faster then Hope and so the eggs were going into Sadie’s basket. The second everyone saw her in tears the kids quickly offered up eggs to her and the hunting continued with all the kids sharing. Bryce had an overwhelming basket because he hunted with Avery and every egg Avery dropped from his basket went into Bryce’s basket. In the end I think they split their eggs. It was really sweet how the kids offered up eggs to each other.

The best Easter Egg hunt of all was at our house. The Easter bunny was tired of Easter Egg hunts and Candy so she hid an Easter Basket for each of the kids with one egg of Jelly Beans, one egg with a dollar, and some clothes. The Easter Bunny’s husband laughed at the Easter Bunny as she hid the baskets and made an Easter Basket Scavenger hunt. But it was so much fun with the kids. They found a note at the bar with an Easter egg that had a picture clue inside as to where to find their baskets. Each clue led them to another egg, with another clue, and eventually in the Guest room their found their baskets. It was so much fun that Mr. & Mrs. Easter Bunny decided they’d do a scavenger hunt every year.
