A Little More Egg Fun

The weekend before Easter, our church had their annual pancake breakfast and Easter egg hunt. This was our first year attending so we were pretty excited! Until we woke up that morning to thunderstorms. Boo. So the party was inside, which is still fun for the kids but I really love it when our egg hunts are outside.

The pancake guy, Chris Cakes is the company, he was so fun! He flipped those pancakes up into the air and then he toss them up for you to catch on your plate! Luckily he asked each person about that ;) For the kids, he got really close and pretty much tossed it onto their plate. Smart guy :) Still, there were some misses and that was part of the fun. Of course, I didn't even think about pulling my camera out to capture that. I was too worried about catching my pancake ;)

After we had our fill of pancakes, we headed to face painting.



 Since they had to hide the eggs inside, they put a huge tarp down, covered it with colored grass and hid all the eggs in it. It was a pretty clever idea! Of course, they used plastic eggs. That could have been a real mess ;)

They took the kids in by age group and replenished the eggs between groups. Another clever idea!


 For Nick's group they had to line up facing the wall while someone said, "On your mark, get set, go!" I couldn't resist a picture :)
This is the only non-blurry picture I have of him scooping up eggs. He was like lightning!
It was fun to get together which our church family.
