Hunting for eggs

last week i ran past

a church

advertising a community-wide Easter egg hunt

SOooo

when the girls weren't sleeping on Saturday

we decided we needed to 

head to the hunt!

there is something so thrilling yet simple

to them

when they're allowed to paint

something on their body!

(they both chose Easter eggs on their left cheeks)

then we decided it was high time for a snack

(carbo-loading for the race for eggs?)

turns out the snack was the perfect

energizing food for

jumpy castles

though Cutie Cakes decided she'd rather sit out the fun

and finish her popcorn

(who can blame her?!)

at least her sister jumped and slid enough for both of them!

 

right before the egg hunt, 

we snuck in some fun bubble blowing

while i tried not to think that dozens of kids

had their sweet little mouths all over the bubble pipes and wands

before my cuties got their mouths all over it...

 

After a prayer of blessing and thanks, 

the girls were divided into age groups

and off we went to our designated locations

it was SO interesting to watch how the girls took off

in their own way

Cutie Cakes grabbed a few eggs

and then discovered

THERE WAS CANDY INSIDE

that sidelined her for the rest of the hunt

while Cutie Face decided it was far better

to grab as many eggs as she could see

and then examine her loot with her sister

Cutie Face often blows me away with her generosity

and she voluntarily shared candy with Cutie Cakes

without any prompting!

i had so much fun hanging with these girls 

and can't wait to see them in action again next week!
