Two Easter Eggs

Though we are far from family in Indiana this year, Dan, Calvin, and I had a lot of fun celebrating Easter with each other and friends in Durham. Calvin hunted his first easter eggs, and he performed about as we expected.

While other kids were scampering around collecting as many eggs as they could find, Calvin found two, one for each hand, and happily walked around holding them for the rest of the "hunt."

Calvin was fortunate to come upon a container (a basket) belonging to one of his little friends. We didn't bring a basket of our own for him knowing that not much collecting would be going on. He enjoyed taking his two eggs and placing them into and taking them out of her basket.

Dan was home for the weekend, so it was really fun to enjoy this as a family. Calvin enjoyed showing Dan his two eggs while shaking them and saying "da" and "dis."

While Calvin liked the candy inside because of the rattle it made, we enjoyed eating his candy. We kind of wished he would have been more enthusiastic about acquiring it for his mom and dad. =)

We had another egg hunt the weekend before Easter, too. While the weather was a little cooler, the performance was exactly the same on Calvin's part. Here are the two chosen eggs from that hunt.
