Big Ol' Egg Drop

What a morning! We went to see a helicopter drop 8,000 plastic easter eggs onto a football field. After 90 minutes of waiting in the cold wind and several passes of the helicopter, the egg "hunt" began. Ten seconds later it was over! Boston got 1 egg. Yes......only one. And that ONE egg was really found by Denver. Apparently a little girl had squatted down to get an egg and another egg was right under her. Denver quickly grabbed it so Boston could have one. =0)

All in all.....it was a good morning. When we got in the car to leave, Boston said, "Look what the helicopter brought me! (holding up his egg) That helicopter was a nice boy!"

20,000 easter eggs dropped from a helicopter. More eggs and more inflatables this year. Every child will get eggs.

Please help us get the word out!
