"The Great Hunt"

Saturday night we headed to Mom & Gary's for "the great hunt" with our family and the neighbors, it wasn't the normal hunt - they put a fun little twist on it!

Here's the garage all set-up for a night of fun, including these two cute bunnies that were in the garage to greet us, aren't they cute?



Onto the great hunt, here's team "GREEN" all ready to go!
Good luck Ron, Adian & Colton...


And team "BLUE" which was made up of Grant, Gavin, Jace...


Team "YELLOW" - Chris, Carl & Carson....and where's Carson you may ask?


Oh there he is - stocking up on the candy, he might get hungry on his hunt!
Better stock up...


And last but not least, team "RED" ... Gary, Nathan & Natalie!


Each team started off with a clue which took them to their team's colored prize and the next clue, which team is going to win "the great hunt"?

Here's team yellow having a great time,
they were always losing your youngest player....


And the red team was always losing it's oldest player....


Besides each team having to find the clues/prizes they also had 12 colored eggs to find in Mom and Gary's back yard, here's Carl and Carson busy looking for all those yellow eggs...


And the blue team....


Natalie and Carson got tired pretty early so they sat on the deck with Frannie while their team mates finished the hunt....in the end each team found their teams' prizes/clues plus lots of colored eggs. 


After the "great hunt" it was time for supper, we had some yummy turkey, cheesy potatoes, corn, salads and these fun deviled eggs that Nathan made...


After supper it was time for some bunny birthday cake, we sang "Happy Birthday" to both Chris & Ang...


Here are the boys sitting at the kid's table enjoying their cake and ice cream!


And the soon to be parents, Chris & Kasey...


What a fun night we had together and the weather worked out perfectly, the sun came out just in time for the "great hunt".  I think everybody had a great time and each team went home with lots of fun prizes plus tons of candy!
