The Hunt is On!

Today was a beautiful day here in Indy! It was the perfect day for Evan's first Easter egg hunt! We joined the rest of the under-6 crowd from Carmel at West Park. It looked like a parade of strollers and candied up kids!!! We paid our $8 for Evan to not pick up a single egg and lined up by the 0-3 year old field of eggs and waited for the proverbial "shot gun" start. Note: when did Easter egg hunts become Easter-eggs-laying-in-a-field-where-everyone-can-see-them? When the gun sounded, the stampede of kids mowed down the eggs like a herd of wildebeast loose on a new plain of grass. Timnah and I were elbowing parents to get to the last three eggs untouched by all the other ankle biters. It was the most hectic 1 minute 42 seconds I think I have ever been a part of. All in all a funny experience and we were happy to be outside and enjoying a new "first" with Evan. Next year we will start training in the basement in early March on how to box out. He was a real cutie! Enjoy the pics:
