Egg Hunt take 1 and 2

We started our Easter celebrations last weekend with our first of five egg hunts.  Because there has been so much running around, candy, and chaos B and I were constantly talking with the girls and reminding them the real reasons behind Easter. Even Pay was able to talk to us about Jesus rising from the dead after 4 days (yeah, we have to work on that aspect), but she knew it was all about Him. It can be such a tricky holiday with all of the other stuff that takes place, but hopefully we are teaching the true meaning while allowing them to participate in all of the other fun stuff.
Last Saturday we had egg hunt #1 at Mandy's.  The girls had a blast. 
Check Pay as she found her first egg.

 All of the kiddos plopped down on the front step to inspect their goodies.
 I might be biases, but those are some of the prettiest brown eyes I have ever seen.
 Round two took place at Q's school.  Q, Cole, and Ty are definitely the three amigos and they are always willing to let Pay tag along.
 Ty must have been discussing the strategy.
 Buddies.
 Egg inspection is always the highlight of any hunt.
 Q and Mrs. Boswell.  She is pretty awesome.
 This is the closest Q has ever gotten to any stuffed figure by her own will.  Not too shabby.
