Easter Weekend Trip...

It is quite a trip up to our parents' houses, but worth the drive! We all had a GREAT time! (here come the pictures....)


The Easter Bunny knew we were going to be gone for Easter, so he stopped by while we were packing and left the girls some fun stuff on the front steps. (Hallie got Hannah Montana guitar and Reese got a Backyardigans guitar) That's a lot of noise for a car ride... what was the bunny thinking?? :)



We made a stop off at Ron and Tricia's for a little egg hunt and visit.


Next stop, Papa and Nana's house (my dad)... For supper we went to Pizza Ranch. The kids had fun playing in "jail".




After supper we celebrated all of the "missed" birthdays. This cake was very yummy!!

Here's the group:

Hallie and Levi got Easels! Here is the future Bob Ross at work...

Since Dad lives up at the North Pole (practically) the cords for all the Christmas decorations throughout the whole town are frozen down... so it is still up. I talked Dad into lighting up the house for the weekend :) (you all know I love Christmas!!)

On Saturday we started off the morning with an Easter Egg hunt. They have a great idea... the eggs are empty, so the kids go out and have fun and get lots of eggs. (you don't have crazy parents out there out of control) After the eggs are gone you turn in the eggs and get a goodie bag of candy. (so all the kids were excited)

The rest of the weekend we had fun playing WII-- video game (I was so sore the next day!!!), Ned's Head, and other board games and just had fun being together!! We miss you, Papa and Nana!!!!

6 friends had to say...:
