Easter 2011
The weekend before Easter we were lucky to get an official invite to the Autoliv Easter Egg Hunt, courtesy of Stacy and my Dad. They have both worked at Autoliv for a long time, in fact I think my Dad has retired 3 times....? Anyway, we were told it was quite an event, and that it was!!! It was at the Weber County Fairgrounds on the baseball diamonds. They had each field divided into age groups and the fields were covered in everything from eggs to chips to granola bars to Capri Suns. Aubree was really lucky and found a "prize" egg so she got to pick another prize from a table of lots of fun things. After, we went to Smith and Edwards (which I love) to aimless wander as my Dad would call it. And then off to Applebees for lunch, it was a great day.
Kamryn, Kade, Payton Aubree, Easter Bunny, Ryker, Madi, McKallan and Taryn.
I love these kids!!!
He is so cute and was just happy as could be.
Nice ears Stacy!
And now we are onto Easter weekend. Heidi, my BFF and her family go camping every Easter, just somewhere local. This year the went to Crystal Hot Springs. Why I agreed to go this year I don't really know because you know that me and water just don't mix. Thank goodness for Heidi and Shane for taking her swimming to the gross hot pools, there is no way I would put my big toe in there. Nate went down there too but wouldn't get it. I know, we are mean parents but I was thankful that Heidi needed to pay her friendship dues - hahahahah. The Roe's have lots of Easter traditions for the kids, they die Easter Eggs, play games, have a huge Easter Egg hunt and it is all finished up with the Easter Bunny coming into our trailers to leave the kids their baskets. It was really fun and we love Heidi's parents so much, we are lucky that they love us too!!!!!
I think Grama Vicki had one too many margarita's when she thought it was a good idea for the kids to die Easter Eggs in HER trailer! But who am I to argue? This is Aubree and Gage, he is Heidi's nephew.
Here is Miss Shadie Jo Rotten and her 3rd cast!!!
This is a picture of our automatic bed that goes up and down so that you can pull the 4 wheelers and stuff into the trailer. Sweet little Aubree was pulling on it and if fell. To tell you the truth I am surprised that it lasted as long as it did. Everything in trailers these days are made so cheap! Nate fixed it but I don't think I will be sleeping up there anymore, that would be one rude awakening!!!

This game was sooooo funny! There were a ton of hard boiled eggs it went kid by kid, they had to pick an egg and crack it on their head. Grama said that there was one egg that wasn't cooked..... So, each kid took forever to pick their special egg, cracked it on their head hoping not to get raw egg dripping down their face. It was hilarious, funny thing was when it ended up with the last kid cracking the last egg, the joke was on all of them because they were all cooked!!!!!
This was so awesome!! Heidi's dad Mike is a "Retired Teen Idol". He brought out the guitar and sang songs around the campfire. Aubree was in awe... She had just got a super cool purple Tinkerbell guitar for her birthday so she was loving every minute of being right by Grampa and his guitar. Grampa even fixed a string on her guitar and gave her one of his special guitar picks, you would have thought it was Christmas.
HE FOUND US, THE EASTER BUNNY FOUND US!!!!
Koda is still a little sleepy......
.....and so is his Dad. But how do you resist a game of "Head Banz" at 8:00 in the morning?
I sure love these two!!
