Westside Easter Egg Hunt

This past Sunday was Westside's Easter Egg Hunt. It was a little early, but we had fun anyway. This was Elijah's first time to participate since he was only about 5 months old last year. It was really windy, but he had a lot of fun.

"Okay, explain it one more time...I'm going to take this basket and put a bunch of eggs in it?"

And he's off!!

"Forget thos eggs, there's dirt to dig here!"

"Wow, look at all these eggs!"



"Did I do good Papa?!"

"That was fun!"

It was a lot of fun to watch. This was the scene...all the kids took off running for eggs...all the moms took of chasing them with cameras....Elijah thinks everyone is running so he should be too...I run after him with my camera....all the kids scatter in different directions, still running....Elijah is confused and doesn't know who to follow, he just runs after one child, then another one will run by and he'll start running after them....the whole time I'm chasing him yelling, "look at Mama"....he was so overwhelmed with fun things to watch (kites were flying, children running, shouts of joy) that I never got that "perfect shot". You know the one...he's stanidng in the grass proudly holding his basket of eggs and looking at the camera with the cutest little grin. Yeah, I figured out the reason the child is always about 5 in that picture!! Oh well, we still had fun!
