This morning we got up and walked to the christian center that is just next to our neighborhood for their
Easter egg hunt. It was kind of cool because there was a lot of carnival stuff there too.
Ains got to jump around in the inflatables and get her picture taken with the
easter bunny. I'm still not sure if she noticed or what traumatized when one of the
easter bunnies took off their head for a breather. We also got to attend a motivational presentation in their auditorium. At least we had a moment about what
Easter is all about.
Ains got into the dancing. They sang "I get low and he lifts me up," and
ains would do the up and down actions with them. I threw in a picture of the dancers just for fun. Then we headed outside for the 2-3 year old hunt.
Ains was so funny because when they said go she took off running and didn't pick up any eggs. I guess she thought it was a foot race or something. John had to run out and help her so that we could get some candy (yes I mean we). She ended up doing pretty well.
After our first egg hunt I got a call from my sister and one of her friends was doing a little
Easter egg hunt for a few kids and invited Ainsley to come. So we headed over there and
Ains got to hunt for eggs that weren't just spread out all over the lawn. She seemed to have fun, John I think was a little more into it than she was. Afterwards the kids got to play soccer for a while and the adults got to make
italian sodas. We're totally into
italian sodas now. I guess as far as Easter festivities goes...so far so good. I was a little worried
ains would be
disappointed because all week she has been talking about going "trick or treating" for
Easter. She was going to dress up as a tiger. I can only imagine the looks we would have gotten going door to door with our tiger and her
Easter basket today. What fun! And there are more festivities to come!
