Alyssa Belle's First Easter Egg Hunt


Saturday morning we woke up early and enjoyed a delicious breakfast that my amazing husband made us. Isn't he just the greatest?!!

After breakfast, we headed to Bend to go to an Easter Egg Hunt at the Old Mill. We were surprised to see hundreds of families in line waiting. We inched our way through the line and by the time we got to where the eggs were hidden, they were gone; it was a total mess. All the bigger kids had ran ahead and they were happily leaving with full baskets, while most of the younger kids had nothing. We were a little bummed, but Alyssa didn't seem to mind a bit! She was just happy to be out with her family and to be around a bunch of other kids.

A few of the nicer big girls gave Alyssa some of their plastic eggs. Alyssa was so happy to have "EGGS!!" and we thanked them for sharing. When Alyssa wasn't looking, we took some eggs out of her basket and tossed them on the grass in front of her so she could "find" them. We got to meet the Easter Bunny and then we walked around the Old Mill for a bit looking at all the recycled Art they have displayed. It was a great day! The weather cooperated (for the most part) and Alyssa had a blast at her very first egg hunt!

Here are the pics:
