Neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt '11

Last year we took the kids for their first Easter Egg hunt. The two kids wondered aimlessly through the field and right past all of the eggs. Mimi, Grandpa Rick, Chris and I were tasked with the job of scooping up the eggs and putting them in the kids' baskets. This year I wanted the kids to be excited about the egg hunt and have a vague idea of what was going on. I bought some eggs and put 1 M&M in each egg and hid them in the living room while the kids were napping. It definitely did the trick because the kids were shoveling the eggs in the basket. They both got quite the haul.
