Easter Day 2012

G-ma Cindy & G-pa Frank joined us at the lake... 
The gardners checking out our clover weeds... looking for chance of growth
 Like Mother, Like Son
 The Greats joined us for Easter:)
 We hunted for eggs and baskets filled with tons of goodies...
 Imagine 2 crazy:) grandmas in on the egg hunt...
 the girls were bound to be spoiled...
 showered with love...
 snacks...
 and gifts!
 We fished for a couple hours...
the water had yet to be let into the lake and so the fish weren't biting like we would have liked but there were a lot of laughs and simple time spent together.  You can't ask for much more than that if ya ask me!

Easter Eve







Is there such a thing as Easter Eve?  For us Easter eve consisted of dying eggs and hanging out together at the lake.  A very relaxing evening.  The usual immediate family was there plus Jaime & Ben who have really have become family.  Liv wasn't much into the dying of the eggs so instead she tried on shoes, hats, and read with Aunt Shannon.  "The Good Life"...thats where we're at:).

The Saturday of Easter weekend Grandma and I took the girls to an egg hunt in town.  It was a quick egg hunt where each kiddo could hunt for 5 eggs.  There was a drawing at the end for raffle prizes which we didn't win.  Harper was stoked to eat ALL of her candy from the eggs.  Liv held onto the same piece of chocolate for like 30 minutes.  By the time we were back at the lake she had melted chocolate all over her hands and face.  We had a nice little outing to start the weekend.

A daddy and his girls

A couple weekends ago, we stayed one extra day than the rest of the peeps at the lake.  We had a nice family of four time of fishing and gardening.  These two peanuts adore their daddy.  He equally adores his girls.   What an amazing relationship they have.  Blessed!

dancing machine

Liv j.z. loves to dance.  She jams out in the living room, car, or the boat.  She isn't particular where she jams out at or to what music she listens to...just as long as she can bob her head:)
