The Last chapter of Easter 2008

We had such a packed weekend, that three posts on Easter is just plain CRAZY! Sunday was a beautiful spring day. It seems you never know what kind of weather you are going to get from year to year living in Utah. But Easter Sunday was gorgeous! We woke up to another egg hunt by the Easter Bunny. The kids had a great time finding their baskets and goods. We spent the rest of the morning and afternoon at church, which was wonderful.

Later that afternoon we did our "Big Easter" tradition. Every year for as long as I can remember-or for as long as I have been married, we have always done Easter with our best friends the Ereksons. We went to their home and had a splendid Easter Feast. Thanks Ash! You rock as a cook! Then we did the "Egg Hunt". Let me just start by saying that if my kids miss Easter at Aunt Ri's house-it's like freakin cutting their arms off.

I don't know how long this tradition has gone on, and I don't really know who started it-because I remember doing it in our early married years as college kids. I think it started with Cheri's parents Claudia and Dennis. Now we just do it for the kids. But hundreds of eggs are filled. Half with money and half with candy.


Mason was a mad man this year! He went crazy! He found 27 eggs, and collected $18. Now Zac and Juli (Cheri's married kids) together only hit $19! So a little 6 year old getting more was not cool! The older kids were "ROBBED!" Really, they all had a great time. Megan was all about the money, and basically ignored anything that sounded like jelly beans, and Mikayla-well she is happy doing whatever. It was such a fun day, and so good to see my cute nephews Zac and Chrisper-and of course its always good to be with the girls. Mom and Dad Logue were there to celebrate the festivities with us as well. Thanks Dave and Ri'for always including us in your fam!

OK so Cheri is looking for the eggs she hid in the flowers. The funny thing is, is that she was so mad at me and Claudia last year because we couldnt remember everywhere we hid the eggs. We came up $1 short. Freakin Cheri was missing $10! LOL. Love ya Ri'!

Funny Moments of the Day:-Playing curses--Juli, Ashley and Tex rocked. Zac basically was put out first.
-Seeing their dog CeeCee (who was in heat) in a doggie diaper.
-Talking with Les (now that is always a funny experience-regardless the day!)
-Watching Cheri try and find all of her lost eggs-sorry Ri' the gardners will get a bonus. Still LOL
