First Easter Egg Hunt

At almost 4 1/2 years old, Gwen finally made it to an Easter Egg Hunt this year.  The past 2 Easters, Adam was in Vegas the weekend Moraga puts on its festivities.  I'm glad we finally made it to one before Gwen outgrows it.  She's already showing signs of being too old for these things... After overhearing me talking to my friend Elisa about the fact that her husband was the Easter Bunny this year, Gwen really stared the bunny down trying to see Nick inside.  When he knelt down to give a little one a high five, Gwen saw his tennis shoe slip out of the fluffy bunny costume foot.  She gasped and pointed to it and looked at me as if to say "Busted!".


I hope she doesn't catch on that all characters are just normal people dressed up in costume.  That will really ruin our next trip to Disneyland!

The girls were so cute during their respective age-segregated egg hunts.  Whitney collected eggs like a pro and was at the top of her age group.  She'd carry her basket to a spot with eggs, put it down so that she had both hands free, and collect an armful of eggs before returning to empty her loot in the basket.  




 At the bottom of her age group, I was worried Gwen wouldn't fare as well during her hunt.  But, with Daddy carefully scouting out the best spot for eggs, she ran out with full force and scooped up her eggs in no time flat, running back happily to show off her stash.
