Easter Egg Excitement

The highlight of Easter Sunday for two toddling 18 month olds? The egg hunt, of course. Ryan and Lucie had a ball taking part in the festivities at Aunt Betsy and Uncle Saul's house. Their cousins Milo and Maggie were very sweet and left the most visible eggs for Ryan and Lucie while they pursued the well hidden ones. R & L had a great time picking up each egg, giving it a shake, and placing it with satisfaction in their basket. It wasn't until their cousin Emily opened up an egg for them that they realized there were treats inside. How cool was that?

Now a few days later, R & L aren't ready to part with their baskets and plastic eggs. They love to walk around the house, dropping eggs in special spots for their parents to discover at a later date. Just this morning I went to put on my shoes and there was a purple egg. I found another in the laundry basket placed carefully under last night's pajamas. And so the hunt lives on...
