On Saturday we headed to Jameston's daycare for a community Easter egg hunt. It was from 10:30 to noon, so I was worried how JW would hold up for the hunt since it would impede his normal nap time. Brett worked from home that morning so that we could go as a family!
It was overcast and a little humid. The weather permitted, and festivities went off without a hitch! They had bounce houses, games, Bible characters, and
a ventriloquist!
My boys
JW really didn't know what to think of it all. I think he was just in a nap-time daze
He was kind enough to pose for Mommy (this was after several out-takes)
He did NOT like the bounce house, but he did give the ball pit a try. He normally likes them, but we are in the throes of separation anxiety (again). This was the best I could get!
He livened up in time for the egg hunt!
Cousin Aspen, my sister and bro-in-law, dad and step-mom joined in on the fun! Here is Jameston holding Aspen's hand after I asked him to...
At first she wasn't too keen on the idea, but then she gave in
Let's go hunt some eggs, Mommy!
Look at that loot!
Since he had some experience egg-hunting (weekend before in Plainview), he was a pro this time around! He couldn't get anymore eggs in his basket when it was all said and done. And he didn't really care what was inside the eggs

So, due to all the rain we received the days before, there were TONS of (hidden) ants in the fields.. And guess WHO found them (at least 100 of them. yep) with her knee while taking a picture of her precious son? I seriously knelt down for about 3 seconds...and wha-lah:
Several of the kiddos had bites all over their feet (JW had three :-(
Let's just say that awesome experience, coupled with it being lunch and nap time, had us ready to call it a day!
Overall, it was a great time, and we will be there again next year (with our ant-spray in hand)!
