Easter Fun I (to be followed by Easter Fun II and III)

Neighborhood Egg Hunt

Each year it has been a tradition to hold a neighborly easter egg hunt for all the kids (who easily outnumber the adults 3:1). Last year was a blustery, freezing frenzy of a hunt with the back yards cleared of eggs and families in about 9 minutes flat. But this year was a pleasantly breezy, springy warm kind of morning and the kids lingered in their hunting while grown-ups cheered them on, helped the littler egg hunters on their quests, and socialized with neighbors after a long winter of neighborhood hibernation.

The gang's all here!Waiting for the "go!" signal. Calem has quite a haul, but was careful not to exceed
the two dozen egg quota for each kid.
Isaac also managed to find quite a few on his own!
But the obvious joy comes in discovering the treasures hidden inside!
