Easter haul

We did an Easter egg hunt around the house, and they boys really got into finding the eggs. And, since they are a little older, the hiding places could be a bit more sophisticated than 'on the ground'. And, of course, once the hunt was over, it was time to divide the loot.

It was really interesting to try and find things to put in the eggs other than candy. At their age, I am really trying to control their candy intake, but filling an egg with marshmellows or animal crackers almost seems criminal. They were okay with it, but the jelly beans and M&Ms were definitely the highlight.
