Easter Egg Hunt- June.

The zoo was so fun and we were so tired from staying up late, Henry and I both got up extra early.
I wanted my blankie and nuk, so I went upstairs to my bed to get it. When I brought it back downstairs, mama said no. I was not pleased with this decision.
Before mama knew how wiped out we'd be, she promised Henry he could go to an Easter parade that started at 2pm. I stayed at home and took a 4 and a half hour nap. Mama hoped it would rain and they'd cancel the parade, but the weather held off.
We got to the parade a little early, so we sat down to wait.
While they waited, mama played around with the manual setting on her little camera.
Click on the picture to zoom in and you might see some of the freckles that are starting to form on Henry's nose.
Here's the first half of the parade.

There was a dance group and this was the second half of the parade. No wonder they only shut down a block of Pendleton.
The big finale was the Easter Bunny. He personally passed out a piece of candy to every kid there.
After the parade, all the kids immediately lined up for the hunt. Luckily, there were 2,000 eggs for about 200 kids. Henry was excited about the hunt and took off when the siren blew.
He got about 16 eggs!
They were saving the eggs for next year's hunt, so Henry emptied out all of his loot. After the hunt, he painted a sun catcher and watched sack races, tug of wars, and egg tosses. His boldness hd worn off by then and he refused to take part in any of the races.

Henry, you need to ask Mama to start putting money in your eggs! Grams used to put money in ours, and your Papa only used to pick up the eggs with the money in them!

Love you all,
Aunt Girl
