Freezing cold Easter Egg Hunt

Only in America do you take your kids to an Easter Egg Hunt and watch the eggs blow away because of the winds and freeze because despite the fact that you live in the desert, the wind has dropped the temperature to what feels like minus five!The words "I'm freezing" were said instead of Cheese!

That was us this past Saturday, it had been a few years since we had taken the boys to an Easter Egg Hunt, and seeing as Aaron is nearly 4 he was able to really get into it all. It had been organized at a local park and split up into age groups, which was great, but there was 6 kids and 2 adults in our group, so the older boys had to fend for themselves while I had the younger kids and our neighbor was with her daughter in the middle age group. The younger kids were so cute, one of the girls decided that 2 eggs were enough for her and plopped down in the middle of the field to see what treasures were inside the eggs! Meanwhile Mr Aaron decided that seeing as his bucket was full, he would stuff his pockets with eggs!

It was a fun morning, just wish it had been slightly warmer!
