every year, for as long as I can remember...
folks take time to meet on the square the Saturday before Easter...
for the grand EASTER EGG HUNT...
there are all sorts of things in the eggs...
money, candy and for those lucky enough...
a little piece of paper that says you have won an easter basket...
the hunt is spread over 3 grassing areas...
and the square gets the smallest of them all...
the kids are divided into 3 age groups...
so the older kids are in a different area...
we always watch the little ones...
when they are done finding the eggs...
they all find a place to sit down and open each of them up...
the eggs are given back to the easter bunny to use again next year...
its a big thing in a little town...
for parents, grandparents and neighbors...
and we had a good day today...
warm but cloudy...
and no rain...
the kids also get to color the sidewalks around the square with colored chalk...
there are prizes for that, too...
and of course, the pictures...
so cute...
the queen even shows up...
see, this is serious business...
some of the older kids...
and the day wouldn't be complete without the Easter Bunny...
who is doing double duty today...
the Post Prom committee had a Breakfast With the Easter Bunny at the grade school this morning...
I wonder if they served carrots for breakfast?
hmmmm...
maybe bunny shaped pancakes would be better...
got brownies in the oven...
eggs boiling for deviled eggs...
doing a cheese cake next...
and the food prep will be done...
got some windows open today...
but better get hopping...
we have one down today...
DH is sick with a nasty cold...
coughing his head off...
so its just me and Craig and we have some outside work to do, too...
so, later...
;)
