Here are Ryan and Jeffrey getting ready for the egg roll for their age group. Notice how carefully they are paying attention to the woman giving directions (off camera.) The rest of the kids were not paying any attention to the directions. They were getting ready for the race. When the woman shouted, "GO!" all the rest of the kids took off, rolling their eggs as fast as they could across the finish line. Ryan and Jeffrey at first continued to look at the woman for more directions. She of course was moving to the finish line to judge the race. They were very confused until Carol and I shouted, "Roll your eggs!" Then, they got to work rolling their eggs...I think they might have been the last two to finish, but still enjoyed it all the same.
Ryan has a huge sweet tooth. HUGE. He LOVES LOVES LOVES egg hunts, especially when there is candy inside the egg. Ryan has taken home quite a loot at each one. At this particular egg hunt, I allowed him and Becca to have 3 pieces of candy each and then they had to go play with their friends. While the kids played, I enjoyed talking with my friends, while I kept an eye on them playing. I noticed after a period of time that Ryan was all by himself at a picnic table across the playground from where I was standing. He was far enough away that I couldn't tell exactly what he was doing, and I figured he was all by himself because he had pooped. As I was enjoying my conversation, I put off going to get him for a few minutes. When I got over there to change his diaper I realized that he hadn't pooped. He was digging through someone else's Easter basket and helping himself to their candy. He looked up at me with a big smile, and said, "It's OK, Mommy. I SHARING!" Oops. So, we left pretty quickly after that...
At this event, there was a clown who made balloon animals. And what did the boys choose? Swords of course!
