let the hunt begin...

Before I begin on the Easter festivities I just wanted to say that I found this delightful surprise in the store while getting a new toothbrush for Harrison, pretty sure it was screaming Gwen's name!! It even protects against acid wear that is brilliant.

Now on to the day of eggs, and candy, and crazy things for sure. Our friend Kelly had a few families over from our ward and past ward, for dinner and a giant Easter egg hunt for all the kids. When we got there James let Gwen wade in their pool and as we all know, once the kids get the go ahead for water it is all down hill from there.
We had dinner then the dads hid the eggs, here are the kids anxiously waiting by the back door for the go ahead.
All the kids are ready and the younger ones got a head start. Harrison and Gwen were really good this year and they spotted them left and right...




This Easter Gwen actually got the idea of getting lots of eggs, but it didn't stop her from stopping right in the middle of the war zone to check out the things that she got.
Here she is showing Max a little candy, I think that she is trying to trade the candy for the stickers.
Harrison even liked the things that he found in the eggs.
So as all the kids checked out the goods they had gathered in and we were cleaning up, Gwen decided that she would head over by the pool for a little...swim and that is how we ended the night, Gwen in a towel and one of Lindsay's shirts. It was really fun, and the food was great, not to mention that we have lots of treats to take us through the coming week. Long live the Easter egg hunts, and Easter candy of course.
