Easter 2012

Easter is my favorite holiday. I love getting my trailer ready and heading to the desert for good food, baseball, volleyball, 4-wheelers, campfires, and dirt.
Before we headed out to the desert we had to stop by Cheddar Field and Stewarts, the local grocery store, for their annual Easter Eggs hunts. My boys cleaned up at both. Here is Jess at the Cheddar Field Hunt.
Checking out their loot at Cheddar FieldAfter the hunts, we got home and painted our Easter Eggs. Kade took it super serious and needed to make lots of New York Yankee eggs, Tyce lost interest after a few, but the eggs he pained needed to be superhero red. We started out our camping trip with kite flying thanks to Grandma Jo. Flying kites was a cinch in the Emery County wind. We spent a lot of our time just hanging out.The Easter bunny found us again this year and the boys were loving it. They each got a bunch of candy and new baseball bats. The Easter bunny hid their eggs, and we were up bright and early looking for them. Sporting their new hats....and a green lantern mask?Jess was so cute. He loved looking for his eggs and the best part was when he threw them as hard as he could in his bucket. He spent most of the weekend attached to Grandma Jo.....he absolutely LOVES her. Gotta love hanging by the fire!Another tradition we have for Easter is to roll (throw, chuck, squish) our eggs down a hill. The kids think that it is just great. Easter was great! I wished that we didn't have to come home!
