Leading up to Easter, Gavin participated in a few egg hunts. Here are a couple of photos from 2 of those (a third is not pictured - it was too cold that day!)

| This exclusive invitation-only egg hunt yielded some really fun prizes. |
 |
| This one was a very exciting egg drop, where 2 helicopters dropped eggs on the high school football field. |
On Easter we had family and friends over for an egg hunt of our own.

| When he realized he couldn't reach that green egg in the tree, he got creative. |

| helping his sister: so sweet. |

| Twix are her favorite; she lost interest in any other egg contents when she discovered this Twix. |
When we came downstairs on Easter morning to examine the contents of the baskets, Sophie immediately mauled the stuffed bunny and wasn't too interested in anything but cuddling the it.
After seeing this Peeps sunflower cake on Pinterest, I knew I had to make it. Except it's brownies instead of cake. And most participants at our Easter meal didn't really think it looked like a sunflower.
But the biggest benefit of making it was seeing my kids each try their first peep. Priceless stuff.
