The Easter Egg Hunt...Nathan's at it again!

On Saturday April 11th Chris and I took the kids up to the West Valley Fitness Center for their Annual Easter Egg hunt. We thought it would be fun for both Nathan and Audrey.
Audrey could have cared less, but had a lot of fun watching everyone else. Nathan, well, he had fun...more to come on that.

Audrey and Daddy walking to the park.
Audrey was loving being on daddy's shoulders.
Nathan getting ready to go get some eggs (not sure what's with the look on his face).
So right after taking this picture, Nathan decided he'd had enough waiting and took off across the field. He didn't even go after the eggs or prizes. He picked up one but then threw it back.
I was going to follow and catch him, but he ran too fast and I didn't want to step on any of the prizes. Chris couldn't do anything, he was behind the crowd with Audrey. Nathan ran clear across the field and then waited there. He started to come back and got scared and I could barely hear him crying, so I had to walk out a ways to him to get him to come back...embarrassing!
Dang kid, not sure what we're gonna do with him yet! :)

After getting Nathan back with us.
It's almost time!
Sorry I didn't get any pictures of Nathan picking up any eggs and stuff. We were having too much fun to get pictures. I tried to get Audrey to pick up something, she just wanted to see what everyone else was doing instead.

An egg!


Even with Nathan running across the field, we did have a lot of fun.
We're not sure if we'll do it again next year. We're talking about having our own Easter egg hunt at our house next year. There were so many people and parents 'helping' the kids that we think doing our own will be even more fun.

*P.S. We ran into a member of the ward after the Egg Hunt and when she saw Nathan running across the field had told her mom..,"I know him."
What a kid! Not much else to say on that!
