Neighborhood fun!

On Good Friday we had some backyard fun here. Together with our neighbors we had a giant Easter egg hunt out back. For a few days we stuffed plastic eggs, with candy, stickers and tattoos for the kids. A few neighbors dropped their filled eggs off at my house and my neighbors house. (Our two yards connect out back with just a picket fence between) So we decided to hide the eggs on her side and round up the kids on our side before the hunt started. She and I went out and hid the 1 million plastic eggs! (felt seriously close to that amount anyway!) 


We let the little kids go off first and made the big kids line up along the fence and count down. 

And then they took off running....

It was a blast for everyone! We ordered a bunch of pizzas and hung out and ran wild (the children AND adults!) after all the eggs were found.  :)
It was a bit windy & chilly, so we ended up migrating inside to warm up. That way we could all have some adult time while the kids played in the playroom. It was a great night with good neighbors/friends. We didn't come back over the fence until about 9:30... the kids fell right to sleep when we tucked them in!

I took a ton of pictures and of course I have to share them. The kids were so cute, laughing, running and just having a ball finding all their treasures!


 I love this shot of the moms picking up the eggs for the little ones. As my neighbor said "What a bunch of bums!" haha :)

Just some of the eggs after they took all their loot out. We later divided them up amongst us Moms aka... Easter Bunnies ;)
