Happy Easter! I had looked around to find an Easter egg hunt for Tristan. He had one at Mother's Day Out last week and did pretty well if someone was helping him. So, I was excited about giving him another chance to show off his egg hunting skills. We went to a recreation center down the road and noticed TONS of people there. They had roped off a huge section for the older kids and a smaller section for the younger kids. However, there were so many kids there and just not that many eggs! Also, the parents were NOT allowed in the egg section, so the kids were all on their own. I then gave up my dreams of having Easter candy later. The pictures below will explain some of our adventure...that lasted a whole 30 seconds...
Nathan and Tristan waiting for the hunt to start!
Not sure what he was looking and smiling at...he didn't fully understand the reason he was there...
There were some mothers yelling at their kids to get more eggs...and the whole 30 seconds that the egg hunt went on, Tristan stared at them the WHOLE TIME :)
Again...more staring. One of the mothers then ran under, grabbed an egg, and gave it to Tristan, who didn't even say thank you but just continued staring.
Mom and son celebrating the one egg (and one piece of chocolate) they got during their adventure!
Maybe next year will be better...
Oh, that's kind of sad. :( At least you got one egg. Next year he'll understand a lot better.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. I laughed out loud while reading this. Can't wait to show it to your dad. :) I guess Tristan wasn't used to a mother screaming at her kids. :)
ReplyDeleteNo need to hunt if someone hands it to you--taking him hunting next deer season, Nate?
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! Well, at least maybe next year he'll know what to do. :) Funny story, Shawna!
ReplyDeleteThis was a cute posting, Shawna!
