It is Easter Egg hunt week here in Oxford. I started Sunday with a pre-hunt before Church to make sure I was ready to go this week. The last thing you want it is to pull a hamstring or mistake an Easter egg for a pine cone during a live hunt so it is always best to practice. Including my pre-hunt i think I will participate in 6 hunts.
You can see the excitement on my face about egg hunting season. It only lasts a week in Mississippi so you need to take advantage each day.
Where or where are you?
We interrupt this hunt for a picture. Oh joy!
A successful hunt. Found the eggs and 1 cricket.
After church we head to the official first hunt of the season.
I traded in my decorative basket for my utility basket for this hunt. Sometimes looking cute is not as important bringing in a big haul.
I pretty much ran the show at the O-UUMC hunt. This was a good year for me because I was pretty much the oldest person in my section. I was a seasoned pro compared to some of the newbies in my category so I gathered my dozen in record time. Now next year will be a different story when I move into the 3-5 year old category.
When you gather your quota in record time you have the luxury of surveying your area for better eggs. This is called a swoop and swap. You swoop in and swap your egg filled with bubble gum and trade it for the starburst filled egg.
Showing off my eggs.

Look at his pretty tree branch.
Dada is showing me the bees. These things were huge and not playing around. Or where they playing around? I don't speak bee so I am not real sure.
From the hunt we went to the baseball game. Good to get an SEC sweep.
Back to an out of place Easter egg hunt picture.
Time to take the field and run the bases.
Look at me back there...running the bases. I love a Sunday run on the bases.
I passed this poor boy about 3 times.
Hey Ole Miss Diamond girl. No time to wave, I'm on a mission.
Woops, I got called out because Ole blue says I ran out of the base path.
Hope everyone has a good week.
