Lucy's First Egg Hunt

Last Saturday, Lucy had her first Easter Egg Hunt! :)  It was one of the community egg hunts and as I mentioned before, there were some pretty fun prizes.

I didn't get the chance to practice with Lucy at all. In fact, we just play with the plastic eggs at home; so, she didn't quite understand the hiding/looking for them. And, when she got to one and picked it up, she had no desire to look for more. She was happy playing with the first egg.

Oh well...I think she had lots of fun.

When we first got there, we all gathered in the building. All the children were running around,  playing like crazy.  A sweet little girl came up and gave Lucy a ball.

Lucy was in awe of all the children running around. She loves to watch children play. So, she just sat there, like that, until the hunt started.  They separated kids into two groups: 5 years and up and four years and under. Heath and I knew right away that Lucy would be lucky to get any eggs.

She did get some candy. The 'bigger' kids didn't seem to want that; they were too busy looking for eggs.


And, she found TWO eggs! :) 

I know what you all are thinking...I helped her out a lot. Just so you know that I didn't, here are some photos.

I did have to make her put it in the basket, to look for more.

All in all, she found two green eggs! :) Now, she just needs some ham.....haha....lame joke, I know. I sometimes just can't contain the corniness.

The eggs only had jelly beans inside, no big prizes. But, it didn't matter; we enjoyed watching Lucy. It was a great practice run for when the Easter Bunny comes this Sunday. :) I can't wait! We are dying eggs tonight!

HAPPY EASTER

EVERYONE!
