Waveland Strong Easter


We planned to do the annual Easter Egg Hunt at Lake Waveland, but the weather was going to be cold and dreary.  So we moved it to the fire station and had a carnival.  Such a smart move!


We had so much fun.  There were about 12 games with lots of eggs with "golden tickets" in them for prizes from the prize table.  Plus bags of candy for every kid who arrived. 

The Easter Bunny arrived via fire truck, per usual.  It was at this moment, as I watched a few kids jump up and down excitedly, that I remembered how Camden always did that....Oh...Camden!  I had taken her to GaGa's while I prepped and had forgotten to pick her up.  I was only 20 minutes later than I told her and, thankfully, she agreed she was too big to care about missing E.B's entrance.


It was great to see him make his way around to each game and play against some kids.



He even raced Camden in the jellybean jumper game.


But shortly after, he took his place in this beautiful setting for pictures.  Of course, I was too busy to make sure Camden got a pic.


I did see her play some of the games.



 


And Gramma Pat was able to come and help too.  I promised I would invite her down next time to just be with us and not help at some event I was running!


Camden won a few smaller prizes, but also got one of the large ones.  She selected a fluffy pink bunny.
