Maymont Family Easter

My favorite spot in all of Richmond is Maymont Park. After a several month hiatus over the fall and winter, we headed back out there today for their Family Easter bash. The weather was slightly uncooperative--about mid-50s, breezy, and drizzly. That didn't damper our spirits, though! Brennan participated in the Easter Egg "hunt" (all the eggs were thrown on the lawn, making for easy finding) and visited the petting zoo. While we loved watching him have fun and enjoying walking around, it'll be more fun in coming years when he is able to participate in more of the activities.

Waiting for the start of Egg Hunt. John compared it to the Oklahoma Land Rush. Being in the middle of it with my small child and trying to avoid being trampled, I would have to agree.

He was pretty proud to show off one of his hard-earned eggs.

Taking a break to eat lunch in the only dry spot in the park.

It was a little too wet to sit and enjoy storytime, but there was plenty of fun to be had by looking at all the fun bunnies on display!

The petting zoo was probably the highlight for Brennan.

He sure did enjoy petting the goats!
