Easter Adventure

What a weekend. Loved it. But it was sure busy. Saturday between soccer games we had our family BBQ and Easter egg hunt. This photo has all but Emma (at a friend birthday party) and Tucker who was outside hiding Easter eggs.
Oh the anticipation -especially when they have to get their photo taken first. To bad I haven't learned photo shop to combine these two photos so you could see everyone's face in one picture.

Jake won the kindness star. We let Jake and Ellie have a head start. Jake would open his eggs to see what was in them before he put them in his basket. The kindness was because Zoe tripped with her basket of eggs and Jake went over and helped her pick them up. He even put them back into her basket.

Zoe and Maria checking out the "real"eggs. Aspen found 8 of them, and took 7 home. The 8th she ate in-between bites of candy.

Whoopee - it was Hallie's 8th birthday Saturday! She has been celebrating all week- and would continue Sunday with her other cousins.

Since the guys were all here, Gil asked for help getting a tree trunk over to our house. We could call it the egg hunt of mishaps since 3 kids needed band-aids for bleeds and we also wound up with a goose eggs and stitches. Oh, and Tucker got a goose egg on his shin.

This tree will be part of the support for the chair-lift swing Gil got for his birthday.
Sunday- Easter was great. We had a broadcast from SLC for Stake Conference. All of western and Northern Idaho was included. We had some great Easter messages from the general authorities and got to listen to Elder Ballard and President Uchtdorf.

Monday was Bree's 4th birthday. She is into Barbies and loved celebrating all weekend too.
