The King of Egg Hunting

Happy Easter everyone!!! We took Flat Stanley to Rockingham, NC (home of Rockingham Speedway Race Track), to hang out with our family for Easter Weekend. Flat Stanley didn't want to ride in the car, so he rode an enormous dog to get there. Flat Stanley named him Chewy because he loved to chew on Five Gum (that's Flat Stanley favorite commercial).
Once he arrived, he plopped himself down at the table to have his breakfast and morning coffee....he HAS to have a cup first thing everyday or he's a huge grump!
When he finished, we introduced him to all our family. He grabbed the camera and took a few snapshots:

Shortly after, he took a picture of some eager egg hunters off in the distance. He ran as quickly as he could and grabbed his Easter egg basket. He sped past all the other hunters and began snatching all the eggs.
We couldn't believe our eyes!!! After a few minutes, there were so many eggs in his basket we knew he had done the impossible...he captured the most eggs and became the "King of Egg Hunting!" We were so proud!!!

Flat Stanley stuffed himself full of Snickers and Resses Cups and candy bracelets and Nerds and all sorts of other yummy candy. We ended up driving Flat Stanley back home and leaving Chewy in Rockingham. There was no way Flat Stanley would be able to handle an hour of galloping. Before we left the "Rock," we took a quick visit to the Race Track!

What an EGG-citing trip!
Love
