Egg hunt complication

We decided to do our egg hunt after nap, since we had such a busy morning with church, brunch before church, etc. Now that LO is taking a longer nap than usual, I'm starting to doubt the plan.

    Too funny! Squirrels are crafty little critters when thu want to be. They used to hang out in the garbage cans outside at my college and eat what everyone dropped in.

    I saw you thought about using real eggs - I'd advise against that too.  W

    The squirrels at my sister's house were spotted eating a cho
