Eggstreme Eggdrop

It's really unfair to all the other kids to be this cute.

Last Saturday me and Heaven got our Pre Easter on at Immanuel Baptist's Eggstreme Eggdrop. It was much more organized this year, but when you're dealing with hundreds of kids, thousands of eggs and a few crazy excited parents like myself...there is only so much organizing you can do. In short, it was a total and complete madhouse...like last year but with straighter lines.

The highlight of the event, as expected is the egg hunt. I really don't know why they call it an egg hunt however because it takes place in a field with literally thousands of unhidden eggs. They're just laying out in the open for the snatching...and snatched they were! But not before a helicopter does a fly over dropping the final eggs into the field.

Once the "go" is given, complete and utter madness follows. MADNESS I tell you.

Heaven racked up quite a stash in her egg snatching sprint. She did share with the smaller kiddos who hadn't gotten quite as many.  After the egg craziness had calmed down, we met up with some friends and spent the rest of the time playing games and waiting in crazy long lines for various germ filled bounce houses and slides. Not really my idea of fun, but the kids seem to enjoy it. The pound of candy they each brought home probably didn't hurt either.
