What a busy Saturday we had that day. It was packed full of fun things.
Our first stop for the day was at the Syracuse Annual Easter egg hunt. Last year we tried it for the first time but we couldn’t make it on time. This year we made sure we were at the park 10 minutes before the even started.
They had eggs scattered everywhere in the park and they had section for different age groups. Andrew was in the 0-2 years group so I had to stay with him and help him. Josh and Julia thankfully were in the same group. I was so proud of them. They got eggs all on their own and for what I heard Julia was a great motivator for Josh. I was afraid that he wasn’t going to get enough eggs but they did well on their own.
Some of the eggs had prizes on them and Josh actually got 3 prizes on his eggs; a bunny that he gave to Julia and two big pieces of candy which he shared with Andrew. It was perfect!
We ended up our morning having our picture taken with the Easter Bunny. Let’s just say Andrew didn’t trust that bunny until he offered him some candy, then and only then Andrew decided to give the bunny a hi-5
After lunch that day we headed over to Ogden to the Dinosaur Park. I’ve been meaning to take the kids to this Park for the longest time and everything just happened to fall into place that day not to mention that the park was having an Easter egg hunt as well.
The kids had a blast collecting eggs again and Andrew actually seemed to be getting the hang of it except after 5 eggs he wanted to open the eggs and get the candy out of them
After the Hunt we walked around the Park and saw the Dinosaurs. I didn’t realize how into dinosaurs they all were. Andrew wanted me to take pictures of him with every dinosaur, Josh and Julia asked me to read the entire dinosaur’s name that we saw and got really excited whenever they recognized a dinosaur from their show Dinosaur train. I was amazed to see how many dinosaurs’ names they already knew.
We spent 3 hours at the park. Just the kids and I and it we had a terrific time. I don’t know how I managed to keep everyone on sight, especially when they decided to play at their playground but we did it. We will definitely make this a yearly thing.
After the Park we had a date with grandma to color eggs. The kids had great fun, they are experts now! Andrew was really impress to see his egg change colors can you tell?
