Happy Easter

This weekend we went camping with our ward. It would have been nice had we gotten there a little earlier, or been able to play longer, but we take our camping opportunities as they come. I don't think we could ever go camping by ourselves. Having friends to help watch Mason, or play with the boys while we set up and took down our tent was invaluable. We also had the advantage of having a giant egg hunt with everyone the next morning. Here are the boys pre-hunt:
And then they took off! Mason was rather picky about his hunting. I took him over to an egg on the ground and said, "Mason, get this one!" He bent down, touched it and then yelled, "NO!" and went to look for another one.
 Jensen made out like a bandit! He was a very aggressive hunter, as you can see by his bucket full.
The big kids got to search for eggs in the playground that they had at the campsite. (It was a nice place to go camping- clean site, bathrooms, a pond, and a playground to boot!)
Three happy hunters. After packing everything up, we headed home to clean up and take much needed naps (even me!) and then we spent the evening playing with Uncle Jason, Aunt Jennifer and Uncle Adam who came into town the day before.
We hope everyone has a wonderful Easter remembering the real reason for this most important holiday.

This post has me so confused (: Again this year, camping in April? And what is this: an Easter Egg hunt that is not in the snow? How obvious the eggs must be if they are not hidden under the snow. Does this not take away all of the fun? Joking aside...I am obviously jealous of your weather. It looks like they had fun. Kids are so much fun.
