Eggs, eggs, everywhere, but no Alys!

This year for some Easter fun, we decided to visit the Middleton Easter Egg Scramble. This is where Ethan had been playing soccer and he was to have a game after the hunt so it was quite convenient. Anyway, the kids were to gather at their appropriate age group for the "hunt". Well, as you can see, it was quite the hunt. :) We were all set to go, waiting for the horn to blow, signaling to go get eggs. Everyone was excited or so we thought. Ethan and Benjamin went scrambling for eggs. I was all set to take some photos and I hear Alys crying at the top of her lungs just standing there. Evidently the crowd of kids rushing for eggs scared her and she wasn't about to go get them. So, we have no pictures of the egg hunt! Ethan and Benjamin
thought it was great and even got a few prizes in their eggs. Fortunately, the egg hunt at Aunt Tammy's was a bit more fun for Alys even if it was getting dark. Better luck next year Easter Bunny. I guess they've got to warm up to you.
