Easter

The kids and I went to Sierra Vista this Easter to spend time with Jared's mom and sisters and cousins (Jared's nana had a stroke so he and his Dad were in California with her)The kids had a great time playing with their cousins and finding Easter eggs.

These have always been one of my favorite things to do at Easter. You hollow out an egg, color it, fill it with confetti, glue tissue paper over the hole and hide them. When you find one you get to crack it on someone!

Almost all of the grand kids on Jared's side of the family












While we were there three deer came through the back yard and started to eat the flowers on the inside of the yard wall. Pretty cool. The kids loved watching them.

This was a fun weekend. I am so glad you came down. And that is a much cuter picture of Jadie and Porter than the one I got. So cute!! Maybe one day Jadie will like Porter, haha.

The confetti in the egg sounds like a great tradition. We'll have to try it next Easter. Glad you had a great day!
