This morning there was a big egg hunt at Linfield College here in town. It was in the gorgeous oak grove...in the POURING rain. Of course yesterday it was sunny and 80, but today it was W-E-T. But there is something about the joy kids bring to situations...they did not care. Even Carter seemed to know something festive and fun was going on.
Even though Garrett' isn't quite 4, we put him in the 4-7 age group so we could watch Maddy and Garrett together. He is SO tall- he blended right in. And he got TONS of eggs, so it turned out fine. Madeline had great 'strategy' and instead of being in the crowd at the front of the field, she ran FULL SPEED ahead to the far reaches of the field and cleaned up out there. It was over so quickly, but even several minutes afterward Garrett was looking high and low for eggs still- he LOVED it. (Joel spotted one in a tree for Garrett!)
Look how wet Joel's back is! Carter is happy anyway...(Also, you know it is wet when a native NWern is using an UMBRELLA!)
The rain makes the spring flowers all the more beautiful!

You guys are the cutest. Good for you for braving the egg-hunt rain and all. And that is such a funny story about Carter - it cracks me up to see their sense of humor. Happy Easter!
