Easter Fun

We kept debating where we would take the kids for an Easter Egg hunt and to see the Easter Bunny. We are lucky here in Vegas because there are soooo many choices. Charlie had batting practice in the morning so we decided we would meet at Town Square around noon so Kadee and Cole could participate in the Easter Egg Hunts. Unfortunately by the time we got there it was so packed that the last toddler egg hunt was already closed and we couldn't get Kadee into an egg hunt until 1:30! We thought we would take the kids to the park there to waste time until it was time for Kadee's egg hunt. Wow! There were a lot of kids there! You literally could not stand without someone shoving into you. Finally after about a half hour of letting the kids play I suggested that maybe we should go to The District and settle for their Easter activities. It took a little convincing to get the kids out of their but soon we were on our way.

We got to The District and right away I sighed from relief, it was not nearly as crowded! They didn't have as much going on, carousel rides, face painting and pictures with the Easter Bunny was pretty much it. Unfortunately the line for the Easter Bunny was ridiculously long and me and Charlie took turns standing in line for about an hour. It wasn't so bad though because the kids got a few rides on the carousel while we waited for our photo op!
Charlie had to take off to take the puppies to the vet so me and the kids mosied over to Panera for lunch. Kadee and Cole love the Broccoli and Cheese soup there. After lunch we thought our day needed to be topped off with none other than Ben and Jerry's. After that it was time to head home. Mommy and Cole were in desperate need of a nap. The crowds and lines wore me out.
