Huntin' Eggs

Wow...I've never seen a kid get so excited over finding something. It was the most adorable thing that I've seen Landin do in a long time. He just got so excited...

So, in order to hide the eggs, we had to distract Landin, so Uncle Chris took him for a drive while the rest of us hid the eggs. We made it simple, just out on the patio (cause we had just had some rain so we didn't want to attempt to track through the mud). We hid the eggs in the flower beds, on the steps, on his outdoor toys, on the grill. When Uncle Chris brought him back, he didn't even make it back into the house before finding an egg...then it all kept on going. I hurried to give him his basket, then Mimi took it from there. She gave him cute little hints on where to find the rest. They just walked around and he found every one of the eggs within 5 minutes! Then came the fun part...opening the eggs and eating the candy. I put a limit on the candy eating of course, especially after our good report from the dentist! So...it was an exciting hunt...very productive, entertaining and memorable.
