Leilani at 39 Weeks

Easter Sunday in Lanikai

Leilani enjoyed her first Easter egg hunt.  We used the same hollow plastic eggs that have been a part of our family tradition for over 10 years.

Each Easter we have filled the eggs with a variety of tasty treats.  The eggs have been hidden behind rocks and trees and cacti in Borrego Springs, San Diego and Lanikai.

Since this was Leilani's first hunt, we made it relatively easy.   Lead mostly by her nose she found the first egg "hiding" behind a root.  Inside was one half of a Fig Newmans, which she quickly ate. 

She located the next egg behind a rock.  This one had a peanut butter sandwich made with Wasa Sourdough Crisp Bread and Skippy Peanut Butter.  Again, gone in a flash.

She then found the next two eggs in a blur. No stopping her now.  Gone was a piece of a Candy Apple Banana from Hawaii and a handful of Kashi Heart to Heart cereal.

The last egg was hidden in plain sight on the lawn. Now Leilani was really into the hunt.

She decided to have some fun with this one.

 She carefully picked up the egg.  She must have known it was fragile.  Then she took it across the lawn.

 Just a second after this last photo, she pushed on the egg and it popped open to reveal a Sandy Dog Biscuit.

What a nice way to end Easter Sunday in Lanikai.
