Easter 2012

Our family took a short trip to visit friends and family in the Seattle area.


Nolan, Gabby, Paislee, Emma, Ethan, Jacob, Allison, Lily, Grace M, Jayci, Grace B

These kids have such a good time together. We look forward to many more visits and camping trips together.



Beth, me, and Kimeree (My good friends from LS)

We were able to visit our really good friends from Lynnwood too. Mary and her kids are so fun to be around and we were all so happy to see them again. Ethan and Jeremy (above) have been best friends since 1st grade, even though they have not been at the same school or even in the same city for a few years now.

We went down to the marsh lands and Mary entertained us with her knowledge. My kids vote her Mom of the Year ;)



In true Seattle style it started pouring on us while we were way out in the middle of the wetlands. Jayci got a ride back to the park while the rest of us ran for it.

Sarah, Emma, Nolan, Rachel, Lily, Jayci, Ethan, and Jeremy

 

Aunt Peggy's ward had an AWESOME Easter egg hunt that we took the kids to. It was a huge yard with thousands of eggs. The kids had a blast.

Cousins!!! Kennice, Amanda, and Holly (holding Nolan)

My BEAUTIFUL cousin Steph is so much fun! She and her mom, Aunt Peggy, colored Easter egss with the kids. Then Steph had all these games to play and the kids won a bunch of prizes. She is seriously amazing and the kids just adore her. (BTW Steph, next time let's not tape anything onto the sliding door ;) haha)

Piper was in on the action too!
