Easter

Lilly had a big Easter weekend. It all started on Friday night with all three of us doing absolutely nothing.
But, on Saturday we really got going.
9am-pancake breakfast at Lion's Club Park
10am-Easter Egg hunt
10:10am-Pouring Rain
12pm-Lunch at Carter's Antique Toy Museum with Grandma and Papaw
2:30-5pm-Family nap
5:45pm-Lilly and I to dinner with Grandma, Bryan to Wes's to watch the Butler game.
9pm-Everyone home-Lilly to bed.
9:30-Lindsay to bed.
These are a little out of order (I haven't figured out how to move them around on my new computer)
Here is Lilly riding one of the rides at Carter's Toy Museum. Its a three story antique toy museum here in Zionsville. The basement level is filled with coin operated ride on toys. The first time we were there Lilly was a little afraid of the moving toys, but we thought it was time to give it another shot and we needed something to do on a rainy Saturday. And she loved it!
Here are Lilly and Avery showing off their Easter Eggs. It is just beginning to rain.
Lilly and Daddy show off their haul. Bryan was pretty proud of himself that he was a better Easter Egg hunter than most of the two to three year olds.
I have no picture to depict this because Bryan and Lilly were lost in the crowd and you can't even tell its a picture of them.
On Saturday morning Lion's Club Park was roped off into several different sections. We, obviously, hunted eggs with the two to three year olds. We all stood outside the crime tape that the Lions used to rope off the playground and waited for the whistle to blow. Then all hell broke loose! It was a jail break.
We discussed weather or not adults should go out there and help the kids, then the whistle blew...Bryan went with Lilly to help her hunt the eggs. I can't even explain what happened next. I took a couple of pictures and then put the camera down to watch. I couldn't even begin to find them. A swarm of children and adults overtook them and they disappeared. A small field with about a million brightly colored Easter Eggs was cleared in about 45 seconds.
Here is Lilly on Easter morning hunting for her Easter Eggs. Every time she found one she would get excited and say, "I found it!"
Lilly going through her basket, eventually she just dumped it on the table. That seemed quicker.

Hunting eggs at Grandma and Papaw's. She was really starting to get good at it by this point.
But....she got a little cocky and lost her balance when she had collected almost all of the eggs. She sat there in the mulch, with her eggs spilling out of her basket yelling, "help, help. My eggs, my eggs?!" while I snapped pictures.
