Mark's Easter treasure hunt

Now that we have a big 4-year-old in the house, I decided it was time to step up the Easter egg hunt a little: we did a treasure hunt, and the hints were WRITTEN (rather than pictures). In order to find the treasure, Mark had to read the clues all by himself. He did a really great job, and found the treasure in no time.

Mark reading the second clue. I put a few hard-ish words in it...

...but this didn't stump my boy.

Mark reading another clue. There were 8 clues altogether, I didn't take pictures of each, but I LOVE that I got some good shots of Mark this time... and by that I mean, I love that I got some pictures of him in which he isn't sticking out his tongue at the camera!

Yet another clue to decipher.

Whew, this one is hard to read!

Who knew - the dryer was a great hiding spot for the treasure!

I love catching the look of joy on a child's face as he unwraps a gift.

You can tell he is thinking "could this really be true???!"

YEP! Meet good Darth Mark. He exists in an alternate universe in which Darth can be cool AND good, at least that's what I've overheard Holden and Mark saying (minus the alternate universe part) during some of their play. I bought this costume last year after Halloween (when it was marked down 80%!).

Good job reading all those clues, Mark! Errr, I mean, good job reading all those clues, Darth!
