It’s our first year in a new town for Easter. It’s also our first year with a toddler who is old enough to experience Easter. We dyed Easter eggs Thursday night, and I think he had fun. Watching NASCAR races on TV was his preferred evening activity, however (the kid likes racing).

So this morning we walked the two blocks to the city park for the 56th Annual Chaska Easter Egg Hunt. 56th!?! This town definitely has some history.

We guesstimated about 250 people total were lined up on all four corners of the park. The hunt officially started at 10 a.m. sharp and all the eggs were claimed by 10:02. I looked.

Here’s junior’s ginormous egg pail…

Those four eggs he found are a very big deal at our house right now.
