Easter Practice

Today we went to the annual Los Gatos Easter Egg hunt to practice for Easter:) Gavin got to wear his cute turtle sweater, AND eat TWO suckers! What a day for the little guy:)

We planned to leave about 15 minutes ahead of time and arrive right in time for the toddler egg hunt. Well, as with every event around here, it was PACKED! That did not matter one bit to Gavin. He got right in line, and when they called them in to find the eggs, he was the first one in...only his hunt stopped right there! In addition to the eggs, they also had candy spread all around, NOT in the eggs. Well, for Gavin that was all he needed! Forget the eggs, he found his first sucker and was DONE. He stood there and ate it (drool everywhere), and then found another. He got a total of 3 things in his basket, and he ate 2. I had to hide the last thing as he would have eaten it as well, and 2 suckers was plenty for this boy! (not to mention we have no idea how he eats them so fast...we are convinced that he does not chew them, just swallow!) 

After the "hunt" we got to visit with friends. We saw Brody and his family and then ran into Kekoa and his family. How fun to see friends.

We stopped by the petting zoo, where the line was about 400 kids long, so we just looked. G was happy making animal noises with Grandma. 

Daddy got some tickets so G could go to the toddler area where they had a bunch of toys and balls. Gavin was in heaven here. Notice the close up picture of Gavin's face...and then look at his nails. A few of them are pink. Gavin watched me paint my nails this morning, and wanted in on the fun. Why not? :)

Gavin had a blast in the bounce house. It was the perfect toddler size...he usually does not like them, but this one had a 3 person max, and they were all little ones. Gavin was actually the one JUMPING around the other kids:)

The last stop was lunch. We grabbed some pizza slices and headed to the shade area to have a picnic. Gavin and "Ma" walked up and down some stairs for about 20 minutes, I guess he was working off all that sugar.

It was so beautiful today, and G came home and took a 2.5 hr nap. This will have to be a new Easter tradition:)
