Easter egg hunt...or...How I almost lost my legs to a horde of toddlers

Easter 2009


I started to get worried when they started showing up by the dozens. Then the event organizer came up to me and after chatting for a minute said, "You've never done this before have you?" Then he said it would be safest for me to stand at least 40 feet away from the starting line. When the siren sounded, they came. Like a swarm of locusts with a thirst for blood they descended on this photographer. In a matter of seconds an entire baseball field full of candy was gone, and I just barely got away unscathed. On a side note, whoever the Easter bunny was...you might want to try to not look like you're gonna saw someone's face off with a fork if you want the kids not to scream. Seriously, I'm pretty sure I'm going to have nightmares about yesterday.
