Easter Egg Hunt at the Park (Photo Essay)

The day before Easter (Saturday March 22nd) there were two Easter Egg Hunts that I took the kids to. One was at a park that we're gone to for the last four years and the other was at the Kern County Museum. The one at the Kern County Museum  was advertised as being the largest in Bakersfield and was supposed to be super great (it wasn't in my opinion). We went to the one at the park at 10:00 AM. We got there a little early so the kids could play on the playground.

Yes...there actually was an Easter Egg Hunt :)

 The Easter Egg Hunt was in several age groups. My oldest son sons were each in a different age group. Their age groups were right next to each other so it worked out just fine.

Isn't it time yet?

See my sad empty bucket

I'm ready! :)

Gazing longingly at the eggs

There were tons of people waiting for the hunt. I thought the woman and little girl in the bunny ears and pink stripes were cute.

 My middle son is at the edge of the picture with the blue bucket. Didn't get all of him! But I liked how I captured that other kid in mid grab.

After this hunt, we went to Great Clips and then rushed to Easter Egg #2. That of course, is another photo essay.
