I come when the children are sleeping and hide eggs in each cranny and nook....

We celebrated Easter at the motor home. The kids all had their tents pitched so the Easter Bunny had his work cut out for him trying to make sure everyone was asleep before he left his baskets and hid the eggs.

Emma and Rachael built a bunny house....Betty and Kriston helped and wished Grandma wouldn't come up with all these great ideas and leave!!

Here they are coloring their eggs...These two are a pair!! Emma wrote a chapter in her book on her cousin Rachael and all the things they do when they come to the Island....so cute! They both are counting the days until they are out of school and Rachael can get here. Rachael is already planning a menu of all the things she wants Grandma to cook when she is here.....


Robin was sitting having her coffee, when all of a sudden she started yelling...."Oh my God...a squirrel is eating the plastic eggs." You should have seen her hobble on that bad knee when she saw he had one with money in it!! She didn't need to worry; he took a small bite out of the money and went for the chocolate. We did wake the kids up and have them go out and start hunting the eggs. It is always so much fun to watch the expressions on their faces every time they spot an egg.

Rachael was beside herself when she opened the prize egg....it had a $100.00 bill in it. The kids always look forward to see who will find it each year. They are all so good about not being disappointed if they don't get it. They know there is always next year. Besides Mike had to work so he didn't get to hunt....otherwise there may have been some pouting....ha ha....just kidding Mike!!

The moms always are happy when Grandma is on sight for holidays....Santa and the Easter Bunny always bring more when Grandma and Pop are there!!


It wasn't as warm this year as it was last year, so the kids weren't able to use the pools. They did find a lot of other activities to keep them busy. Besides miniature golf, the park had all kinds of activities planned for the entire weekend.

Rachael being serious....
Mike with a beard full of Smores...

The girls just having fun....
Since Mike was working and I was spending all my time with Robin, Salt, Betty and Kriston kept the girls busy with a trip to the Aquarium, bowling and a movie.
