Happy Easter!

Today is Easter, and I really should be boiling eggs for Sasha to color after his nap...but instead I'm making a blog post! 

Yesterday, we decided to go to an Easter celebration on base. It was our first time going to something like this, and Sasha had a blast!

Sasha was totally thrilled to hang out with the Easter Bunny!

The highlight of the event was an Easter egg "hunt", which wasn't a hunt at all. They just threw a ton of eggs into an open field and then the kids all scrambled like crazy to get as many as they could! They had it divided up by age group - ages 0-4 were supposed to start at noon. We got there at about 11:55, and it was already over! So I just put Sasha in with the 5-6 year old group that did their "hunt" at 12:45. Worked out very well haha!

Kids started lining up along the starting line over 30 min before the "hunt" was to begin, so we went ahead and lined up, too. It was a long, windy wait. When they finally counted down the last 5 min, the kids exploded from the starting line and the whole thing was over in about 1 minute. It was pretty intense...and didn't really look like much fun, to be honest. 

Sasha is circled in red - this was taken right as they yelled "GO!"

Besides the "hunt", they also had bouncy houses (which Sasha loved), face painting, photos with the Easter Bunny (as you saw), and free kites!

We stayed for about an hour and a half, then went off to run some errands. One of which was getting Sasha a hair cut!! We had to wait almost 2 hours (!!!) because the place was so busy. So I went off shopping, and Regan and Sasha waited at the barber. I came back JUST as he was climbing up into the chair. Pretty good timing, huh?

Sasha actually LOVES getting hair cuts!

As I said, today is Easter! I should probably be writing this post later tonight so that I can include pictures of Easter dinner and decorating eggs, but I can just make another post later (or you can look at the pictures on facebook haha). I will include this picture of handsome Sasha, all dressed for church, just after he found his little basket this morning! 

He was so excited!!

And that's it for now! Happy Easter!!
