Myrtle Point trip for Easter

Last weekend was a busy holiday. We headed down to Myrtle Point from Mema and Papa's on Saturday morning. Once there, we celebrated early birthdays for Samuel and Sydney. They are both in May, but we aren't going to see them....so I thought "why not?!" Lauren liked to help!

I had made Sydney an apron for her and a matching one for her American Girl doll. There were some other goodies in her box as well.

Samuel got a couple Hunter Dan things and Uncle Jake went and picked him up some Star Wars Legos....which much to Auntie E's surprise were a hit!

Then they got a couple of games to share.

Easter morning came early. Papa said that the kids aren't up that early on Christmas! It was 6:30 a.m. and I'm sure that Lauren had a lot to do with it! The Easter Bunny brought Lauren a new Bunny Sing-a-Ma-Jig......weird little creature.

And a butterfly net....or as Lauren calls them "flutterflies".

Then it was off to the Elks Club for brunch and the Easter Egg Hunt. Getting ready outside on the golf course.

It was just about nap time and she was having a hard time restraining herself but once the other kids were off, she got into it.

They were mostly in the deep grass.

I asked her stop and give me a smile....this is what I got! On a mission.

Her basket with som of the eggs in it. She ended up with a few hardboiled eggs, 2 with candy and 1 special one that was slipped in from a special lady with $10 in it!

Looking for more eggs. You can see the other older kids way down the fairway. The area was pretty picked over but she wasn't giving up!

And low and behold there were more!

Each year she always finds one that color coordinates with her outfit!

Showing Daddy "More Egg!"

Still searching for the infamous golden egg.

Oh well, maybe next year!
