Easter Egg Hunt 2014

As per our annual tradition, we spent the Saturday before Easter at the Dolly Sanchez Annual Easter Egg Hunt at the Peoria Stadium.  This was Jessa's first egg hunt, so everybody was especially excited for her!

Daddy and Jessa waiting for the mad dash!

 She took to it like an old pro!  

 Between egg hunts, there were plenty of activities to participate in.  We did a family scavenger hunt, the kids rode a train, bounce houses were played in and pony rides were taken.

Brychan is trying really hard to not smile.

And Jessa?  Well, it's taken her well over a year to decide she likes Biggs.  So...riding on a huge, strange animal was just about the last thing she wanted to do.  There were lots of tears at first, but Daddy managed to get her to calm down and try it.  She still wasn't convinced by the end, but at least she was tolerating it!

Well, and Kehlton is obviously too cool for any of it. ;)

Why are Easter bunnies so creepy?

All in all, is was a fun and successful morning!  Brychan's egg hunt was less than perfect; after a couple of false starts and much older children being allowed in the 6 year old age group, Brychan ended up with nothing. For a child that doesn't even really like candy, he was extremely sad and disappointed.  However, a quick trip to the store fixed the problem for everybody!
