Kershaw Easter

The Saturday before Easter we headed up to Spalding to see my Dad's family. We always have Easter at my Aunt Tami's farm house. It's fun because there's lots of hiding place for eggs and baskets.

The first to hunt were the Great-Grandkids. They got frisbees and buckets. They were pretty excited.

Since there was no sand to haul, Ian decided snow was just as good!

Then the grandkids got to find their eggs - there was a nice little cash reward in our eggs that our grandma had left to us. All of us were quite surprised!

Then my dad and his 6 sisters got to do a little hunt of their own. It was pretty cool becuase my Aunt Tami took clues my grandma made in 2004 and used them. So the clues were in my grandma's handwriting and then they lead to a basket with some cool pictures of her and my grandpa!
It was a fun afternoon. I think Ian loved being out on the farm. The only problem we ran into was Ian being brave and taking a little walk up the country road about 1/4 mile all by himself. We realized he was gone and started looking for him and could not find him. We started to freak out a little bit because there are a lot of places he could have fallen and gotten hurt but luckily we looked up the road and there he was just walking back to the house - he was just trying to find the other kids - he thought they went for a walk without him.

This is Ian and Bandit (my cousin Nicole's dog). Ian loves him!

We stayed in Spalding that night and the Easter bunny visited us. Ian found his basket and got Madagascar 2! He was pretty excited!!
We had fun spending time with my dad's family - seems like we always have to run somewhere else so it was nice to just relax and talk for a while.
