Easter at Grandma's

After church on Easter, a quick change of clothes, and a check of the cows - we drove up to Grandma Ingalls' house for Easter with some of the family.  It is an hour drive up to her house, so not too far.  There was more food than twice as many of us could have ate. Grandma made my favorite potato salad, though she was quick to point out it needed salt I think it was just perfect.

My mom, who had just had her teeth removed for dentures and was not feeling well enough to come out, and my sister Kaylene filled 300 plastic Easter eggs for an egg hunt for the younger kids.  That was the highlight of the kids' day.  We brought home enough candy to last us the week.  Well, except Brech - who ate his candy in two days.  I think he didn't come off that sugar high until Thursday.

          ^^^^^^ That guy right there was bumming Swedish
fish off anyone who would give them away.
I didn't even know Andrew like Swedish fish.  Guess I know 
what he's getting for his birthday now.  Ha ha 
 On your mark....get set.....
 GO!!!!








 Kiara had just woke up from a nap so she wasn't as excited to hunt eggs as everyone else was.  She would have had Blase do the hunting if it had been her choice.  She'll eat all the candy though.
 I wanted to recreated the picture of the twins with Grandma Ingalls from March 2014.
I think all three of these lovely ladies are beautiful and sweet.
Kiara on the left-side of the picture and Brigid on the right side.
Rex asked for a picture with Grandma.
I'm more than willing to take a picture with family members if my kids ask.
I hadn't thought how beautiful this picture would be until we asked Grandma and she said she would love to have a picture with her Rex Howard.  Grandpa Howard would have smiled at these two posing for the camera.
