How many egg hunts does a kid need?

...As many as we can get them to, I say! First, the kids headed out to "This is the Place" National Monument for the Make-A-Wish Foundation's annual Egg Hunt a week before Easter.


Jace got spoiled by the clown. He asked for a spider. The clown said "Okay, but just this once." It is the shape that takes the most time and balloons!

I think these are Mickey Mouse ears on Lance. The clown took just one look at Lance and began making these. Half of the wishes made in the Make A Wish foundation are to go to Walt Disney World.
They had games, egg coloring, face painting, hot chocolate, donuts, and beautiful music playing. When "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" played (the one from "50 First Dates"), I had an Evan moment and shed a tear, maybe two.

(Right) One week after Easter, the final hunt here at the U. Jace is proudly displaying that he found the egg that won him the grand prize of a $30 gift certificate to Build-A-Bear!
