St. George Easter Egg Hunt

Anytime we spend Easter in St. George, we most certainly attend this. It is 30 minutes of waiting around at your designated area. Then a 10 second count-down on a mega-phone. Then it is parents pushing their kids out into the hunt when the count-down gets to about 4! Then it is cheering your child on and encouraging her to pick up as much candy on her own while the parent next to you is loading up candy and dropping it into her own child's bucket. I assure you, it is awesome!!

Did that sound like a complaint?? My bad. We really do love, it is just comical to see some of the parents do the job of a 3 year old, among other 3 year olds. I want to say to those parents, "Go buy a freaking bag of candy at Wal-Mart!!!"

My girls think the egg hunt is the bomb and I truly do enjoy watching them (do it on their own!)! It is a fun tradition that we have done the last couple of Easter Holidays!

Here are some pictures of Emily from the beginning, when Grandma Joyce was giving her instructions, to when she was showing off all her fun stuff!


And here is Gracey! She was a pro!


And if you don't believe me about the parents, look closely at this photo. I wish I would have taken a closer picture, this lady was literally dragging her kid around!


After the Egg Hunt, we went over and held some cute baby chicks. Gracey was all about holding them, Emily only want to barely touch the head as long as I was holding it. They were cute....and so were the baby chicks. Glad they weren't mind though!

Check out the intensity in Em's face!
