Easter egg hunt part one

We had a little Easter egg hunt and colored eggs with some neighbors and friends. The kids started at the top house and made their way down a few houses, ending with ours. Here they are getting ready to start.
This is so funny. I still don't quite know why Emma was raising her hand. Maybe she was signifying she was ready to begin. 
And she's off!! 
It took Thomas a minute to figure out what in the world he was supposed to do. He would pick up an egg and we would tell him to put it in his basket. He would, and then put it back on the grass where he found it and go find another egg and so on, hahahha. He got the hang of the real game, real fast. 
He was smart. While the other kids rushed down the hill to the other homes, they missed a TON of eggs at the first house. I think Thomas spent the majority of his hunt up at the first house and was quite successful.
Emma and Thomas enjoying their yummies after the hunt. This was an awesome realization to Thomas that there was actually candy and treats inside these eggs. Heaven. Emma loved wearing her bunny ears. They really did have a fun time. The sun was right in their faces, it was a little hard to get a smile out of them without being blinded by the sun.
