Eagle Mountain Easter Egg Hunt

On Saturday, Justin and I were watching Nathan so we decided to take him to the Eagle Mountain Easter egg hunt. Jillian and Brady were down for the weekend so they came too. (Justin actually missed the actual hunt because he was doing a service project with the elder's quorum).We didn't realize that it was going to be so busy until we looked out our window and realized that cars were parked clear down the street. So, we hurried and got the two kids into the strollers and booked it to the park which is just up the street from my house. They had it divided into age groups so Nathan was in the 3-4 year olds. He sat patiently and waited until the firemen honked the horn on the fire truck and complete chaos happened as kids ran to gather the eggs.He did really well gathering the eggs. I was impressed.It soon became a game of "Where's Waldo" as we tried keeping an eye on Nathan. Parents weren't supposed to be out on the field, but it made me nervous so we sent Jillian out to follow him.Here is a picture of Jillian.Lydia didn't get to do the egg hunt because she was too young, but she still had fun just playing on the grass. She loves being outside.In one of Nathan's eggs he found a dollar. He was pretty excited.Nathan was good and even shared one of his candies with Lydia, but she wasn't allowed to touch anything else. She could only look in the basket.The egg hunt lasted a whole three minutes, but I think Nathan still had fun with it.
