Easter egg hunts

On Saturday we had two fun Easter egg hunts! The first was at our church Easter activity and there was a ton of kids! It was fun to watch all of the kids running around like crazy trying the find their different colored eggs. The kids each collected six eggs in different colors. The eggs were empty, but when they took them to the six different rooms in the church they could exchange them for a cup of candy (talk about sugar overload!) and learn about the events that lead up to our Savior's sacrifice. It was such a fun activity and so different from any other Easter activities we have participated in. I absolutely loved the pure expressions of joy on the kid's faces, during both the hunt and as they listened to the stories!

pure joy!
Later on in the day we got together with some friends at the park by our home and had our own Easter egg hunt. It was such a beautiful day and the kids were so excited (even though they had probably all eaten a good month's worth of sugar earlier in the day!)

They're off!
