Easter Egg Hunt at Church

We went to our church Easter egg hunt this year and Ty had some kind of fun. There was so much there to do. Here he is in the bounce house. He thinks those things are so much fun. I think it is an accident waiting to happen.

We have been trying to teach Ty the whole concept of finding eggs and putting them in his basket. Well, who walked out the door and forgot his basket? Yep, me. I was so upset. Our neighbor had him a cute bunny basket made with his name on it. So, we comenced to picking up eggs and letting mommy and Ali carry them. He "found" 5. There were treats in them so that interested him alot.

For the children 3 and under, they just toss out a bunch of eggs on the ground and they just wonder around picking them up. Do you know how hard it is to keep a 1 year old away from a BUNCH of eggs. VERY HARD. He kept wondering over and picking them up. We let him hold one just to keep the screaming down to a minimum. That is why you see no other childern or adults in this picture.

Here is Ali (his favorite person other than grandaddy), helping him find the eggs.

Oh no! There is no treat inside. He kept wanting to open up all the eggs and throw whatever was in it on the ground. Uugggghhhh!

Now the hunt is over and he has to see whatever else he can get into!

So, we had snow cones, one of my favorites, popcorn, and cotton candy. Oh yeah, we did eat a hot dog and chips before all the good stuff. Ali is so good with Ty. If I need him to do something, Ali can usually get him to do it. She even shared HER snow cone!

They also had live Chickens (it may have been a rooster, either way it scared me) and bunny rabbits. You were allowed to pet them easy. As always, my son that is not scared of ANYTHING!!!!!!, and wanted to "touch". He wants to touch everything around him. He gets that from him daddy. No matter what store we are in Travis has to touch everything. It drives me crazy. Now Ty can say touch, so everything is touch....touch....touch!!!! Anyway, Ty is not the gentlest child. My neighbor has a dog and cat and when Ty comes over they run. I am trying to teach him to pet easy, but somehow he still has to grap and pull. My sisters cat is also terrified of him. When Ty comes over the first thing he says is mu mu. The cats name is Mufasa and we call him Mu Mu for short. When the cat hears Ty he hides. It is so funny. So needless to say I was a nervous wreck letting him pet this chicken/rooster. He did ok other than poking it in the eye. Geez.

We had such a good time with lots and friends and family. Oh yeah, Aunt Missy and Uncle Tony were in the dunking booth and Ty got to dunk one of them. I think it was Aunt Missy helpinghim dunk Uncle Tony. I think Ty's favorite part was being able to run around play with out me having to tell him no and you cant go over there. He so loves being outside.
