Easter Egg Hunts

Good Easter night! I recently spent time at my families’ houses over the past two days, and it’s great to see everyone coming back from college and from work and everything for a little. That doesn’t happen too often; however, today I was at my Aunt and Uncle’s for Easter dinner, and I hid eggs for kids that are 4 and younger, I hid 42 eggs. 42 eggs for 3 children. I have no problem with throwing the kids an Easter egg hunt, but there came a point where I just ran out of spots to hid the eggs. You might be thinking how can you run out of space, use some creativity! And you’re right except for the fact that these kids are really young and we gotta keep it fair! So eventually the eggs were placed really close to each other in some spots and it’s like you walk a yard and you find another one. I don’t know what it was like for the kids, but I thought I would get bored. I’m 17 though…Anyways the rest of the family participated in a hunt except the eggs had lottery tickets in them. So the prize was all chance. There were twenty eggs hidden. Guess how many were found…if you guessed 19 you were correct! So right now I’m thinking I bet that last egg was like the $2,000 winner…I’m never going to know…It’s lost out there….waiting for someone to scratch it off…It’s itchy. I don’t know if that ever happened to you, but it always seems like this happens each year. I think we need to date the eggs in case we find one from previous years. But leave a comment if anything like this has ever happened to you before. It’s good to share stories. Spread your world!
