The First Hunt

Our neighborhood association hosted an Easter egg hunt on Saturday at 3:00, so Kevin and I thought it would be a great opportunity to start working on Jake's hunting (eggs only, of course) skills. Well, because Jake woke up from his nap at 2:40ish, we arrived to the park at 3:02. We could tell from the car the hunt was already in full swing. We're new to this, but it seems like this egg hunt thing is a very serious business to some! Well luckily, Daddy has a keen eye and spotted one lonely Easter egg in some tall grass near the sidewalk. Here goes nothing; the hunt begins....Reaching for the egg... Discovering the egg....

Realizing there is something inside the egg...

Being told to put the egg in the basket, but not seeing a need for that...

Getting ready to play after the successful hunt of 1 egg...

I have to say, Jake really did like his one little plastic green egg. He carried it with him the entire time we were at the park. Now, next time I know it's very important to be early for the egg hunts. Oh well, Jake didn't seem to mind at all. Overall, a great Saturday afternoon!
