Easter Eggstravaganza

There is a church in Hermiston that has a huge Easter event the day before Easter.  We didn't know about it last year, but I saw it on the calendar of events and we decided to go in between sessions of general conference.

There were lots of carnival games for the kids.  I think Whitney and Rachel really liked those.

At the end of every game you would win Easter eggs filled with candy.

Doing a ring toss.  It didn't matter that neither girl actually ringed any, they still got eggs.

This fishing booth was the place to be if you wanted lots of Easter eggs.  Whitney 'fished' nine eggs and Rachel 'fished' twelve.  I won't have to buy candy for a long time.  Of course, this was also the longest line because of that.

There also was a petting zoo for the kids to touch different farm animals.

I learned that baby goats are much softer than grown up goats.  They had some goats there that were only two weeks old and were so cute.  The girls also got to pet horses and dogs.

There were a couple of different bounce houses (based on ages of the kids).  I snuck Rachel into the one for four to six year olds so she could be with her sister.

And there was face painting.  This was Whitney's favorite thing.

Doing some crafts - coloring super hero masks.

There was food also; we were waiting in line for the cotton candy.  We also had hot dogs and popcorn.

The best part was that everything was free.  The workers were all super friendly.  There were thousands of kids.  Poor Will had to miss out and stay home with sick Megan but hopefully we will all be able to go together next year because it was super fun.
