Easter weekend - story #1

If you can call two years a tradition, then the Egg Dive through the parks and rec dept. is one of our new favorites.  It's just what is sounds like - kids dive for eggs.  Well, "dive" is poorly named, it's more like an egg wade, but so much fun nonetheless. Kids are divided into age groups, eggs are tossed, the whistle is blown, and the race is on.  Nets swoop up eggs and it's over in 15.2 seconds. But, totally worth the trip.  I mean, everyone has a regular egg hunt, but how many get to wear their fanciest Easter swim suit?  (kidding on the fancy swim suit.  Pretty sure Lydia had this same suit on in last year's pic.)  So to all the parents who try sooo hard to get that perfect Easter egg hunting picture, just give up like we did, and go the water route. So much easier.

    I think it's a little hypocritical of you to be uncomfortable with me using Facebook to increase your blog traffic when you have no problem posting shirtless pictures of me to do the same thing.
