Reflections On A Great Easter

Good Friday although it was rainy and very cold it didn't dampen our fun at Jack Miners.
 Jeff and Lindsey and Tyler and Landon arrived just after 2  on Friday and we headed over to feed the geese.

Landon seemed to really enjoy this experience.

Tyler liked the geese at a distance.  He had fun on the swing with dad and Landon.

Even Papa got in on the action.!!

Time to go but we still had time for a quick jump!

Then off to Colassanti's where it was warmer and we could pig out on donuts and cider.

Tyler loved coming down  the slides on his tummy.

Then on Saturday when Scott and Cassandra anKathy and family arrived we went over to Aunt Heather and Uncle Petes.
 Heather and Sam were decked out in matching bunny aprons. (Too cute)
They were each given a bag and then they went on a treasure egg hunt.  They even found treasures in a tree.  Then it was off to the chicken coop to gather some more eggs.

Have a seat Nathan....we need to sample our treasures!

Tyler loves collecting rocks.  Too bad there wasn't a lake near by where he could throw them into the water.

We had a great visit at aunt Heather's . Then off to Colassanti's to see the animals and get some donuts.

The mom's and the kids went to see all the animals while Scott and Papa solved the world affairs.

Back to Nana's for yummy stuffed potatoes and corn on the cob.

The children ate their Easter dinner on pretty plates and decor provided by aunt Heather. They had their very own table in the kitchen.

Inside the bunny were treats for all the children.

The adults ate in the living room as it provided more space. It was sure fun to be together.  The only thing to make it better would be our three families from Alberta seated beside us at our table.  We really missed not having them there.


We were so happy that Kathy came!

Jesse was hoping to have dessert first.

Clara cleaned up all the chocolates that the big kids didn't quite finish.
What a wonderful way to celebrate this  Sacred Holiday.

  1. Thanks for a fun weekend, Pat! We all had a wonderful time, and it was so good to get away! We made baked potato & ham soup yesterday with the leftovers you sent home. And tell Bill that he accidentally sent a frozen whole chicken instead of more ham! Or was that on purpose?? Anyway, we roasted it tonight in the oven with lemon and herbs and it was really good! So... thanks again!
