Dahlia Park Easter Egg Hunt

We are so lucky to live in such a fun and friendly neighborhood. We love living in the Issaquah Highlands, but our neighborhood within The Highlands, Dahlia Park, is such a great place for a growing family. There are lots of little ones Clara's age and enthusiastic neighbors willing to participate in events like the Easter egg hunt that we held last weekend. We had homemade refreshments, sugar cookies for the kids (using Grandma Elaine's fantastic recipe) and a visit from our pal, the Easter Bunny. Even the weather was perfect!!

Miss Clara ended up with 2 eggs from the hunt. Kevin had her practicing the night before at home and was quite impressed with how quickly she caught on. At the actual hunt, she wasn't quite fast enough, but loved watching all of the other happy children run around the park.

Scout wasn't too sure what she thought about the Easter Bunny but the reaction was not as dramatic as her LOUD response to Santa!
Scout had fun collecting all sorts of things in her basket: bark, rocks, leaves. This being one of the few nice weekends since she has been walking Clara is still figuring out how to walk on the varying terrain. She is so determined and loved exploring in the park.

Happy Easter from The Michaels!
