Easter Egg Hunting

After church on Easter Sunday we would usually spend time with my Dad's side of the family, however, this year, with Memaw being in the assisted living facility and having only been there a few weeks, they didn't think it would be a good idea to take her anywhere yet, so Nana and Aunt Kay went to have lunch with her. Our family decided to spend the afternoon at Grammy's beach house. They all came to church with us since our church is only 10 mins from her house :)

Ava is the only child in the family so there really wasn't a big to-do about egg hunting, but we didn't want Ava to go without, so we hid the eggs- in very obvious places :) and let her find them. There were some money eggs Grammy put out, so the older "kids" were allotted 2 eggs a piece.

Ava was so funny, she knew what to do, she just didn't like picking up the real eggs that had been colored, she kept picking them up and dropping them saying mess and wiping off her hands. It was so cute.

Mom and Grammy bought her these eggs and will say cute things like "Yoo-hoo, come find me!" or "I'm over here!" so Ava could find these eggs when they were hidden by listening to them. She still likes to turn them on and play with them...thank-you-very-much-mom-and-grammy! *insert rolling eyes here!*

She had her Easter basket filled to the top full of eggs- and she loved hunting for them.

I think she is going to have to become a little more aggressive next year- especially if there is money involved....

Okay, so here is a question for you: What do you get when you have only 1 kid in the family?

Christmas instead of Easter! This is what we left with from Grammy's house. (this doesn't count what the Easter bunny brought and what Adam's parents gave her.)

Ava received presents from her Gammie, Grammy, Auntie Ro-Ro, and Aunt Stacey- can we say spoiled much?
