Easter

We had such a great easter! This year we got up early on Saturday and took the whole family to Living History Farms easter egg hunt. The farm is many acres of rustic buildings from the late 1800s. You can see how blacksmiths, farmers, doctors, etc worked then. Anytime you visit you will see people wearing authentic clothing from that time and doing things the way they would in the 1800s, very cool! I am glad we got there early. We pulled in about 8:30 and there were only like 50 cars, so I thought it might be a bust. While I sat in the car and fed Zachary, and Daddy and Kenna waited in line hundreds of other people showed up.

We bought our tickets and headed straight for the toddler easter egg hunt. They got to find three eggs then got a brownie and some milk. She thought it was a blast. We headed up the hill to the other exhibits and then saw that what we had just walked right to now had a line of hundreds of toddlers. Thank goodness we got there early!

--looking for eggs (they had stickers inside, how fun!) --

--it was chilly, but ended up in the fifties by the time we left--

--eating her brownie and "choklit milk!"--

--just part of the line, wish I had taken a picture from afar--

--after the hunt we went to the bunny barn, here she is petting bambi--

--this look is priceless, holding a bunny with some help from daddy--

--then they went on a horsey ride--

Pretty fun day, and well worth the $5 to get in. We will probably make an event out of this every year, and will definitely get there early!

On Sunday Kenna woke up to see that the easter bunny had come. He left her stickers, art stuff, and a chocolate rabbit. She thought it was more fun that he left Zachary some diapers and a toy duck!

Later that morning we went to Mace's for some formal introductions of Zachary to his great grandparents and some yummy easter lunch!

--josh and emmi staged an easter egg hunt for kenna and kade. They had a blast!--

--Bridgot got a turn, he was happy until I got the camera out!--

At the end of the day AJ brought over his rediculous new truck. He is planning on lowering it in the next few weeks, but all the men got a hoot out of its huge-ness!

Happy Easter!
