This past Easter was so much fun. Brenna participated in 4 easter egg hunts and she did awesome! She totally got it from the very beginning and had more eggs in her basket than most of the other kids. A big reason is because she didn't understand that there were treats INSIDE the eggs until the third egg hunt. So while most of the toddlers would get an egg or two, open it up, see the treats, and then just sit and enjoy a snack, Brenna would gather as many as she could, thinking that the prize was the egg itself. Once she actually figured out that there was food inside, she would take every egg out and one-by-one, walk up to an adult and say "Opee, Opee, Opee, Opee" Now she wants to "Opee" everything. Even if it's a toy that does not open. "Opee, Opee, OOOOOOPEE!!!!!!" "Sorry baby, that's a plastic duck, it does not open." Cue meltdown.
Here are some pics from all of our Easter Egg hunts. The first hunt was with the playgroup at Kendall's house. We had to move the hunt inside because of the rain, but they had a blast nonetheless.

Brooke Logue who is an amazing photographer and fellow playgroup mommy. Maddy is saying, "These are all my peeps!"
Brenna loves this toy at Kendall and Ella Kate's house.
Struggling to get the group shot...
The next Easter Egg hunt took place at Brenna's preschool but unfortunately I didn't get any pictures from that hunt, but I do have a picture of what she was wearing that day. Wish she was smiling in the pic but the flowers were too pretty to pass up :-)
Her third Easter Egg hunt took place at the Jupiter Community Center. Here are some pics from that day.
She spotted the bounce house:
Kendall/Ella Kate, Amanda/Audrey and me/Brenna
Love her bunny bow...
Poor Audrey, she DID NOT like the hay...
Lastly, we spent Easter Day at my parents' house and had a lovely lunch with Mom, Dad, Ed, Joann, Grandma Ruth, Jeff, Jackie, Jaime, Adam, and little Addison. Brenna also loved this hunt although ants had gotten in several of the eggs. My bad for putting them out too early in South Florida.
She was happy in her dress for longer than I expected her to be. By about 5pm, she was trying to get it off.
