Is it too late for Easter?

So I know Easter was a week ago, but here are some pictures of an Easter egg hunt we did for Anna. She LOVED it. We meant to do it the Saturday before Easter and ran out of time, same thing the day of Easter. We finally got it done on Monday. Better late than never. :)

Here is Anna with her ginormous basket. It's actually a sewing basket my mom bought me when I was in high school and did cross-stitching. Let's just say we were being resourceful.

She was so cute finding the eggs. She would see one and say, "oh, there's an egg." Her tone of voice was so precious.

She was pretty good at finding most of them. Every once in a while we would give her a hint.


Anna and her Easter eggs.

I first had filled the eggs with probably 5 pieces of candy. After I let her have an egg before the hunt, I realized that was too much candy for her and later put only one or two pieces in them. So then every morning, she would want some eggs. I finally would give her one or two with candy and them some empty ones. That way, she thought she was getting a lot. You gotta be tricky sometimes with these kids, otherwise she'll end up with a ton of cavities.

She finished all the candy yesterday, so I put the eggs away. This morning, she ran into the kitchen to get her eggs, only to find them gone. Needless to say, she was very upset they were all gone. Poor kid.
