Easter Egg Hunts

Ellis went on two Easter Egg Hunts today!  We had a neighborhood hunt for the kiddos this morning and it was so nice!  Perfect weather and gracious Mommies helped make this a success!  In the afternoon, we ventured down to Calera to ride the Cottontail Express at the Heart of Dixie Railroad.  It was such a beautiful day, glad we got to spend it together!

At the neighborhood hunt...

 I'm not sharing this egg with you Daddy! ;)

 Go Ellis Go!

 The way this jelly bean is dangling cracks me up!

 Mmmm...

 I believe I will help myself to seconds

 Ellis found his friend

 Gimme five!

 By now he's figured out that goodies are inside of these eggs!

 I've got the golden egg!

 AHHHH!!

 Ellis decided the eggs were fun to throw

 I see the Easter Bunny

 Ellis ran to the bunny, he thought he was the best thing ever!

 He stood trancelike as others visited with the EB.

 Ready to hunt some eggs (again)

 The meadow was a teeny tiny bit smaller than I pictured for a train full of eager kiddos.

 A vineyard was right next door

 GO!!

 Ellis won a monkey and was giving it a kiss

 I'm not so sure about this!
