Easter party at Zack's pad

Easter Sunday we decided to have a little get together with Zack's friends and their parents. WARNING: With this amount of kids and activities, there are lots of pictures. Originally an outdoor Easter egg hunt and egg coloring was on the agenda. It turned out to be a cold, rainy day so we ended up having the egg hunt in the living room.

So, while the kids were preoccupied in the basement play room, I hid plastic eggs full of stickers, tattoos and little plastic animals. Then the caravan headed up the stairs, with baskets in hand.
Some of the kids had "hunted" earlier, but some where new to the game but everyone found plenty of eggs.

Zack looking for eggs with cars...he thinks they all have cars in them, since that is what the Easter bunny did earlier that morning.

Landon found a few eggs and a few stickers left behind by Seth.

Joe was running around collecting eggs at lighting speed.

Riley was very pretty in her Easter dress along with basket.

After collecting comes the excitement of seeing their treasures. Sofia and Jason checked out flower stickers...

While LT was checking out Riley's stash...

Zack and Nixie among the carnage left by the egg hunt!

Ben and Dylan laughing it up after collecting impressive amount of eggs for a rookie!

After a play break (so I could set up egg dyes) we moved on to coloring eggs.

Nixie was very serious about her favorite, turquoise, just like her dad's bikes.
Rob and Seth went for stickers and crayons on his eggs, impressive for the rookie!

Landon was very perplexed about which sticker went with his green egg, but was good with his tattoo decision.

Jason and Sofia made several eggs...she is pro since making them at french class earlier in the week.

Dylan was also on a roll until dad cut him off at some where around 6, I think.

Isaac woke up from his nap in time to head over and join the fun!

At one point all the kids were in Zack's play room with Seth and his mom, Chi. We half joked that she was in charge and we were all heading to local pub...should have, the kids love playing with Chi.

Sofia brought a bubble gun that was a hit with all the kids, although it caused a lot of sharing challenges. As you can see Zack was a little impatient for his turn.

After all the kids left, during our brief clean up, Zack decided his hummer basket doubled as a hat! Finally he was off for much needed de-staining.
