Happy Easter!

What a great day!! It was so beautiful outside - perfect for our first official Easter Egg Hunt!!

Evidentally they had an easter egg hunt at their school party - Tyler and Haley were telling us they found eggs on the slide, in the sand, and other places on the playground. I asked Elli if she found any and she said, "noooooo I didn't get any". Broke my heart! I was so concerned about her getting pushed around and not getting any eggs!

Well, if that scenario was true, and she really didn't get any eggs, then she definitely took some alone time to strategize on how to get her share on Easter Sunday! As soon as she saw Tyler grab the first egg, it was ON. From that second forward she was in egg-hunting mode and NOTHING stood in her way. If we pointed to an egg to help Haley or Tyler, she would sprint from the other side of the yard and grab it just as they were reaching for it! It was so hilarious to watch! I tried to put these photos in chronological order so you can see how innocent the egg hunt started, then you can see the transormation into ultra-competitive mode! Tyler mostly stayed to himself and even took a break mid-hunt when he realized there were treats in the egg! The girls were to busy "competing" to realize what they were actually fighting over!
