After several days of cold and gray, Saturday was bright and gay, and children enjoyed the sunshine for some Easter fun downtown.
At the new Many Friends Park on Main Street, the Easter Bunny had his picture taken with kids, and at First Christian Church on Hickman Street, dozens of kids of all ages hunted plastic eggs filled with candy.
Enjoy the photo gallery!
