An Egg-cellent Saturday!

Our Easter Weekend started with the Fathers and Sons Camp Out of which I think I am grateful there is no photographic evidence. So after gathering in the troops and legions of dirty laundry we headed to Mom and Dad's for a family BBQ and Easter Egg Hunt.

The food was delicious as always! (Thanks to contributions by Mom, Dad, Grandma-ma & Grandpa, Cassi and Kaley. They took pity on the size of my belly and impression of John Wayne after riding the range wayyy too long and gave me a pass on a food assignment).

Adam and Brock had their own area to hunt for eggs--which they did over and over and over so we kept hiding them over and over and over!

Here's Double Trouble at the beginning of their hunt!


Cute pix of Adam. Brock was too busy looking for eggs to stop and smile for very long.


Katelyn, Bryson and Bradley had a separate area to find their eggs after which they had to solve word puzzles that were inside them. Since we're taking a family trip to Maui after school is out all the words had to do with our vacation. They sorted like eggs and then had to unscramble the letters to make the word. Yeah, we make our kids work for their Easter Candy!

Cute Katelyn.

Determined Bradley.

Energetic and Entertaining Bryson!

Blake and Megan had the same task as the older 3 just simpler words.

It wasn't really that sunny outside but Megan and her purse are always prepared for anything!

Meanwhile we hid eggs for Brock and Adam . . . . again.

Here the older 3 are counting their eggs only to find that they are missing one! Where is the egg map when you need it? Fortunately, Grandma-ma found the egg!

After this I stopped taking pictures because I was on duty to hide the eggs yet again for Brock and Adam. It was more like feeding chickens though. I'd just throw the eggs out onto the grass and they'd race to pick them up. They could have done that for hours! We missed not having our whole family there to participate in our Eggs-tra Out of this World Egg Hunt. But there's always next year!
