The annual cousin Easter egg hunt in Cornville! We did it a week early since the Gammon kids were visiting from Utah! We didn't want to leave them out yet!

One of Granddad quirks is that he asks for kisses to do everything! For example if they want a ride on the golf cart he replies, "Maybe for a kiss I can get up and do that."
When we got back we sent them out youngest to oldest to find eggs. The Easter bunny is much less "survival of the fittest" these days. I remember some pretty competitive Easter egg hunts with Jesse usually getting a ton of eggs. This year each kid got a whopping 21 I think! They were very good to stop getting eggs when they reached their quota. Much more civilized and less tears, but not quite as fun. Maybe when they're all older we'll let the chasing, snatching, and shoving begin!

This is the first year Auntie Marti could come! We got 4 of the 6 kids +families there this year! It's a little far to get the California or South Carolina families to come, and we'll see if we can get the Gammons to make the trek again next year!
Mr. Blue Eyes. His eczema has cleared up a lot since this picture. I think a lot of it was the cold/dry winter air.
I like the look on Miles' face!
The boys counting eggs- Olly is pretty excited!
Miles first swinging time with papa. Matt wants a swing set this durable. They just don't make them at the store like my Great Grandpa Allen made this swing set!
The spoils. Notice Miles trying to crawl around and snatch candy.
The traditional end of hunt picture with the grandparents! Great memories!
Great pictures! That Grandad really like to get those kisses from the Grandkids. I guess he'd better enjoy it as long as it lasts. Thanks for sharing. It was a fun, fun, weekend. Love Grandma
ReplyDeleteSo glad we could come and that the timing worked out well.
