Here Comes Peter Cottontail

eAsTeR wEeKeNd was just plain wonderful for us!!! We made a quick trip out to Utah for Mark's mission reunion. It was so neat to meet his mission Pres. and his wife. Were also able to see Mark's parents in SLC for a few hours. We had a good visit and went to Wheeler Historic Farm together.We enjoyed conference and also the Easter festivities in G-town. We were the last to find our basket, I probably would have asked for more clues, but luckily I married a good seeker. He did not give up and found our spoil!!! My favorite parts of our basket were the chips and cheese dip and the bubbles. Thanks, Mrs. E. Bunny! Greg ended up finding the most money in the money eggs this year--he took home $35. Lucky duck. I don't have a pic but he pinned the money on his shirt and took a victory lap around the house. Adding a new tradition to the usual, the men participated in an egg drop contest. Who can get their egg to not crack??? Check out these faces of concentration as they construct their "egg envelopes" using tape, cotton balls, paper, tp, etc...
Mark took 1st place in the egg drop using the "diaper" approach.
We also did an EaStEr BoNnEt parade in the house. We made bonnets out of paper plates and marched around to the Easter Bonnet song. My mom is really good at making things fun and doing traditions every year. Thanks for the fun weekend!!!

Just wondering if inspiration for this title came from your favorite character in Pinkalicious? (Loved your comment by the way!)
