Every year my parents have an easter luncheon. After lunch there is an easter egg hunt for the kids. I was grand and supreme champion for YEARS before I was forced into retirement...who knew there was an age limit?
In any case, I can now relive some of the glory days by watching JT participate. Last year was his first year in the easter egg hunt. JT was 5 1/2 months and I have to say....he sort of stunk. I am being generous by saying he got ONE egg last year. In reality it was more like 1/2 an egg. He got it, dropped it and never seemed interested. Sad effort on his part.
This year we don't want a poor showing because JT is at my parents house 5 days a week. It is like losing on your own home court. Over the weekend we went to Toys R Us and what did I see? Easter eggs. What did I buy? Easter eggs. What did we do when we came home? Practice.
What? Yes, practice. Easter is just over a month away and we are determined to make a better showing than last year. JT actually did quite good. He was getting an egg every 15 seconds and by the end of practice he was down to 8 seconds an egg!

i am teaching him how to gather easter eggs. i thought that was pretty self explanatory from the video.

yup, jt thinks practice is just some game and play time! i am genius!
Okay, I see how its going to be. Turning the Easter Egg hunt into a competitive event.
I'll have to get Maggie practicing the elbow to the gut, stick your foot out and trip, and steal from JT's Easter egg basket.
...this shows why Miles should receive yet another vote for "Father of the Year"!!!!
GOOOOOOOOO, MAGGIE!!! :)

hmmm, maggie has a huge advantage...she is already 2 years older and has two older siblings to show her the elbow to the gut move!
