Easter Celebration With Lance & Susan

Lance and Susan invited me and the kids over to celebrate Easter the day before Easter. It was a great opportunity for them to see the kids and for us to have some family bonding time. Susan went all out making a wonderful turkey meal with mashed potatoes, salad, and the works. We even had two pies, and of course I could not control myself to stop eating them :(

In addition to Lance and Susan, Pam, Jacob and Randy were there. It was nice to get to see them and hang out and chat for a little while.

In celebration of Easter for the kids Lance and Susan hid Easter eggs for Caiden to find. They hid them very well and in unique places. Caiden had so much fun running around trying to find them, and I had fun watching him having so much fun. :)

Caiden was sprinting around the yard looking for eggs
Grandpa Lance did not make it easy for him. Look at the eggs on the ladder
He hid a few in the trees...here Caiden holds one up with pride that he found one in the tree
and of course we need to hide them in and above the hose
Wow! Look at all those Easter Eggs :)

After we did the Easter Egg Hunt, we sat down and relaxed and chatted a bit.

Once our food had settled, Susan, Caiden and Randy colored Easter Eggs. Now these Easter eggs were a lot more vibrant than the ones I had made with Caiden. I'm a bit jealous.

Wow! Look how vibrant!

We had a lot of fun, but were quite tired when we left. Thank you again for allowing us to come over and hang out and celebrate Easter. :)

That was a lot of fun. And I got to hold Kiya quite a bit as long as she wasn't too hungry. Of course, she was hungry I think three times while we were there. She sure is putting on the weight. :)

I love super bright easter eggs too!! You just have to leave them in the water for a loonng time. Extra vinegar really helps too...
