The boys came out of that 5-minute spree with buckets FULL of candy and eggs. It was awesome! We are so grateful to the Rotary for hosting this event!
Inside the plastic eggs are money or coupons for free items or tickets to receive money at local merchants' businesses. The boys opened all their eggs to see what goodies lay inside. They were so happy to see that they'd all received several dollars!
After the city egg hunt, we headed over to the church's stake primary activity. The theme was "Forever Families". Our Stake Primary President is so organized and fun and comes up with awesome activities for our youth. They had a great time at all the different stations and having snacks. The boys liked this maze of boxes/obstacle course in the middle of the church gym that led to the temple! They came away with bags full of goodies, too!
When the activity was over, we picked up the boys and headed to my mom's house in Utah. My mom was prepared with items for her annual event of dying eggs with my boys. They look forward to it every year. I appreciate that my mom is always willing to get extra items to make it a fun and new and creative experience for them.

Initially, Ammon said he was not interested in dying eggs with his brothers. But, after seeing all the fun they were having with Grandma, he decided to join in, too.
I like seeing the different styles of my 4 sons' eggs. These are Ammon's eggs (all practically identical!):
Micah has really had an artistic outlet recently. These are some of his colorful creations:
Jonah used a variety of decorations: stickers, markers, wax:
These are Kanyon's eggs. His favorite part is the dying process. He could care less about stickers!
Josh and I went shopping that night and my mom put the boys to bed for us, which was so thoughtful of her. Our first day of Easter festivities had been a fun and successful one!
