McLane Children's Hospital in Temple made a lot of kids happy this weekend with a FREE Easter Egg Hunt. Julia was there for all the fun!

(I really should stop talking about myself in the third person).  But, yes the kids had a great time.  In addition to the egg hunt there were lots of other activities.  Special guest, Easter Bunny, took photos with  everybody, even the law!

Of course the main event was the egg hunt.  Kids were divided up into age groups so nobody would get run over.

McLane's volunteers laid out over 12 thousand eggs, most with candy and goodies inside, but some of those eggs contained golden tickets that were traded for these big Easter baskets

Hundreds of kids and their parents showed up for this years hunt.  It was all free.  If you missed it this year.  I feel sorry for you, but remember to show up next year. It's Free!

 

Happy Easter from Julia and the Big Bunny!
