The crowds were sidewalk-to-sidewalk at the annual Eggstravaganza event on Saturday, March 31st on the courthouse square in downtown Fairfield, Texas.

Proud moms, dads and grandparents snapped pictures as the preschool group gathered prize eggs.

 

With curls bouncy in the breeze, this little cutie sits while local artist, Patrick Hoeinghuas, draws her caricature.

The Eggstravaganza is an event sponsored by the City of Fairfield and put on with the assistance of volunteers from Fairfield Chamber of Commerce.

Additional activities included hat makers (and parade), hula hoop contests, free cotton candy, animal balloons by Willy Nilly the Clown, and an appearance by the Easter Bunny, herself.

Thanks to everyone who help make this year a success!
