Easter on the Farm

 This year for Easter we all adventured back to the farm to celebrate with Oma & Opa.  Though this was a short visit, we all enjoyed our time together with many activities.  I know Izzy in particular had fun as she cried when we left saying she wanted to stay with Oma & Opa longer.  We dyed Easter eggs on Saturday.  Micah couldn't figure out why Opa couldn't wipe off the green color from his hands.



 In our tradition, we show off our favorite eggs.
 Odell had a town Easter Egg hunt.  The kids were separated by age with the youngest going first.  East child could pick 4 eggs which contained candy.  They could then take them into the Legion where they would get money for their eggs and visit the Easter Bunny.  It took Victoria a bit to figure out what to do.  But when she did, she kept picking up eggs.  She quickly figured out I was then putting them back down so tried to hold as many as she could in her arms.





 A family picture all dressed up.
 After church there is a tradition of eating breakfast in the basement as service is early.  There was alot of running around and smiles.  I took on the challenge of making their outfits.  This will likely be the only outfit for Micah as their are not alot of choices for boys.  But he sure looked handsome.

 After taking a nap from church, we had an Easter Egg hunt on the farm.



 Unfortunately Grandma hurt her hip a few weeks before Easter and required surgery.  We made a visit after church.  Four generations together!
 A trip to the farm would not be complete without fun.  The swings were a favorite for all.  Feeding the animals is another routine we all enjoyed.
