Pre-Easter egg hunt

One of the parks in our area was hosting an Easter Egg Hunt on a Saturday. It was supposed to be a gorgeous day - 80 degrees, sunny, but they failed to tell us that it was going to be a little cloudy in the morning and cold.
That morning Scarlett woke up with a stuffy nose so she wasn't herself, but she made the best of it and we didn't stay long since we were cold. We stayed long enough for her to do the Easter egg hunt. Gerry was designated photographer, but he had a hard time getting photos because the area was packed with children and parents. Scarlett wasn't too keen on getting the eggs until I told her there was candy in them and then she was all for it, except she wanted to open them every time she picked one up. She finally understood to put them in her basket and we would open them later.

At one point we had Scarlett take her Easter basket to the Easter bunny to get a treat and she was all for it until he turned around and moved and she ran back to us crying. Why do they make those bunnies so scary-looking?
Scarlett's Easter egg hunt buddies - Twins Ava & Gabby, Alexa, Scarlett. They are all about 6 months apart.

Time to sit down and open the eggs and eat the candy. That is a Sweet Tart in her hand.
