Eggstravaganza!

Saturday just kept going and going!  At 4 o'clock we got cleaned up and headed to church for an Eggstravaganza!  At Zion, we don't just toss some eggs on the lawn... First, we visited all the baby animals.  Donkeys first.

Then these adorable baby goats.

We asked to take one home but you know Dad would not have it...

We spent quite a bit of time with this big mean ol' turkey.  He was especially mad at B who kept yelling at him.  Thank goodness he was in a cage!

A lot of our friends were there too!  Hi Jonah!

seriously...  this guy was out for blood.

The bunnies were MUCH friendlier.

Dad went off to help Pastor and Mom took us inside for Easter crafts.  First stop was the cookie table.

Of course, we did great work there.

We Vandys are not known for our arts and crafts skills, but we did give it a solid effort.

Okay, one of us gave it a solid effort.

The other one...  well the other one entertained us :)

Pastor finally got the gym settled (it was absolutely packed).  A funny puppet came up and told the story of Easter!

Afterwards, Daddy took the first graders out to find eggs and Mom went with Jonah, Sissy and I.

Can you believe there were over 6,000 eggs?!  Here's the preschool section.

Ready, Set, GO! 

Some kids did VERY well.  Jonah and B wanted to stop and open each egg we found. 

Mom tried to get them to go get more, but there was no arguing.  They each got about 5 eggs :)  Oh well.

I got so many eggs, I started giving them away to my friends who didn't get as many.  Afterwards, we went back over to eat and play a little more with the animals.  I got to hold this big soft bunny.

B was really mad that Mom wouldn't let him have the bunny.

Finally, the nice farmer lady convinced Mom that B could hold the littlest bunny.  He was SO happy.

Thank you so much for putting on an awesome Eggstravaganza Zion!
