Easter Egg Hunt 2

Yesterday was the easter egg hunt with the kiddies and it was so much fun! We started the evening off by having the kids find the easter eggs we had hidden earlier that day. We hid 66 plastic eggs around the yard, which they found mostly on their own, minus the couple times we dropped subtle hints and played the hot/cold game, which wasn't exactly helpful to 5 year olds who didn't understand "you're really warm" or "oh wow, you are freezing cold now" :)

After that we went inside and the kids opened their eggs to see what was inside. They found stickers, tattoos, money, candy and some eggs had a couple dog treats tucked inside so Buddy and Lady could reap the benefits, too. :) I think they preferred seeing stickers over the dog treats, but they handled it well. :)

We then went back outside to fly finger kites before it got dark. It was windy, so a perfect evening to fly them. It was comical watching them run around the yard dodging each other and dodging Lady because she was chasing them and their kites. :) She got her exercise that night!

After kite flying we went inside and ate cup cake ice cream cones and dyed easter eggs before our night ended.
