Easter Sunday saw three very excited children jumping up and down as soon as they got up; asking when they could go on an egg hunt…
Before the 5yo even got up we could hear him asking his brother if he thought the Easter bunny had been yet :)
Eggs were prepared, sweets hidden and the egg hunt began! I’ll let the photos tell the story…
The boys knew exactly what they were doing and ran off without a backward glance to find as many eggs as they could!
This was the wee girls first egg hunt… She joined in straight away :) Cries of my eggs, my bucket, more eggs! rang out around the garden and she ran from one egg to another. She was so pleased each time she found one, so excited to discover the little sweets hidden inside each. Our lovely neighbour had hidden eggs too, adding to the fun.
It was bright and sunny, the kids were happy and excited. Eggs were found, the odd bit of chocolate may have been consumed! After we had finished and all the eggs had been found, the 7yo came and whispered to me thanks for organising a brilliant egg hunt mummy; that’s what makes it all worthwhile.
Our egg hunt was followed by bike rides and strolls in the sunshine, lunch with friends; more egg hunting, more excitement, lovely food; it was a wonderful day.
Happy Easter everyone, I hope you have all had a wonderful weekend!
Oh WOW this looks Great Fun!!! Happy Easter :) x #MagicMoment
Thanks Leanne, happy Easter to you too x
They must have been so excited Sara! The boys look like they set off with purpose and wee girl must have been beside herself! She’s just adorable walking round with her little bag. Great photos of the boys checking out their stash too. Fabulous post, thank you so much for sharing #whatsthestory
Thank you Charly x They had a lot of fun, and the wee girl certainly knew what she was doing :) Thanks for hosting x
wow this looks like a proper easter egg hunt compared to ours! ours had about 10 eggs lol
thanks for linking up with #MagicMoments
Thanks Jaime, it was fun :) I used the plastic eggs and just put a few sweets inside each, so lots of eggs, not too much chocolate! Thanks for hosting x
Aww thats looks si much fun! We only stayed at home this easter sunday as its raining cats and dogs so we did our chocolate hunt inside the house! I can still find eggs in some hiddencorners =) #MagicMoments
Oh, I’m sure the kids would have enjoyed this just as much inside… it’s all about the chocolate :)
Looks like so much fun, and lovely to see the sun shining and no snow there! Gorgeous photos, and such a lovely thing for your 7yo to say x
Thanks Jocelyn x It made my morning actually x
Aww! It looks like they had a great time!! Such fun x
Thank you Kim, it was fun :)
Wow this sounds like such an exciting thing to do.
It was great fun :)
That looks like fun. Goodness me your children are growing up aren’t they?
Aren’t they? It’s a bit scary actually :)
Aww your Easter egg hunt looked amazing. We never did one this year but I reckon I’ll make up for that next Easter! #magicmoments
It was good fun, the kids absolutely loved it!
It looks like you all had the perfect day! It must have been extra special that your little girl joined in for the first time. Thank God the weather was on your side!
It was a lovely day, at last! It was wonderful to watch the wee girl running around so excited :)
How exciting! I love Easter Egg hunts. T had one in her play school. It was actually raining down in Cornwall on Easter day, so all Easter activities had to be done inside our house. Love the photos of your little ones, they all looked really happy and excited, just a bit like Christmas, don’t you think ;) x
Absolutely, they woke up almost as excited :)
Aw looks like a lovely hunt and you even had a sunny day!! So nice that your seven year old appreciated what went into making it all happen too. X #magicmoments
Yes, it was really lovely of him to realise and say thank you :)
Exactly what we were doing yesterday with all the children staying here. Lots of fun and looks like yours had a great haul.
They did quite well :)
It looks like they had a great time! I didn’t have any time to arrange anything this year as we were away.
Thanks Tami x Being away is a treat in itself :)
I love a good easter egg hunt. Looks like everyone had a ball. We had those baskets too they were great to decorate and use again next year. ;) Glad you had a great easter hun!
Thank Jenny, hope you had fun too x
AAwww that sounds like so much fun, and lovely photos too x
Thank you, it was a lot of fun, the kids loved it :)
What fun! Looks like you all had a brilliant Easter x
Thanks, we did have fun :)
looks like they really enjoyed doing the egg hunt, Happy Easter xx
Thank you, they did. Happy Easter to you too x
Next year I think the kids should hide the eggs and send us parents looking for them ;)… so much fun, you can see they are excited in the pics.
Absolutely!
It looks like they had a great time x amazing pictures too x
Thank you x
They look like they enjoyed it. You had much better weather than us so our hunt was delayed until the afternoon when the rain stopped and the Easter Bunny risked putting a few eggs outside and the rest were hidden inside. I really don’t think it matters where the eggs are the kids still really enjoy it.
Absolutely, as long as there is chocolate :)
Lovely! My kids enjoyed their egg hunts but I didn’t get told anything like that. So glad you had so much fun.
Thank you, it was a lovely morning x
You’ve gotta love a good easter egg hunt :-) Our 17 month old tried to get involved this year, which consisted of her emptying the eggs from where her big sister had gathered them – whoops!
#MagicMoments
Lol! The wee girl was quite keen on stealing her brothers eggs :)
Looks like quite a haul. A lovely day for it too by the looks of things.
They did quite well :)
