Easter is almost here

Saturday morning was the Fountain City Easter egg hunt. John has been going since he was two, I think...maybe three. Not important. It was chillier this year than in years past and he is quite styling in his shades. I tried to get him to take them off for the hunt since I knew I would be taking pictures and more importantly, I thought they would fall off in the middle of the hunt. He insisted they stay on and I don't really want to be the one discouraging protection from all those harmful UV rays so they stayed on and made it through the whole park trip. The age group he was hunting with was all kids below 8 years old. That is a giant range when you are talking about kids just learning to walk up to ones that could start skateboarding any day now. This year John held his own and filled up his "basket". We didn't get any of the big prizes but he was very happy with the 3 pieces of caramel he received in the eggs.

There was park play time before and after the hunt. He wanted his face painted after a while but absent minded mom did not bring any cash. Someday I will remember that any kid event will need extra cash for something. He bounced in the bounce house. I am so proud of this. We never thought he would leave the ground. He also was pulled around the park by a tractor. He loved all of it. Easter time is fun.
