Easter Weekend

Well this is my first post. I had previously said that I would not have a blog, but I guess I will give in. I am addicted to checking all my friends blogs. I have had the domain for our blog for a couple of months, but have never posted. Maybe this will help me get going.

We had a great Easter weekend. We headed down to Papa Bob's farm in Canton with my family on Sat. My cousin Ryan, Susan, Cody, and Casey were visiting over their Spring Break. The boys really enjoyed it. Ben stayed close to the barn playing ball, throwing rocks, and attempting to play ping pong. Blake really enjoyed riding with mom and dad on the 4-wheelers. He couldn't get enough. We rode around the trails with our cousins for a long time, but Blake never tired.

On Sunday we went to church and then headed to Uncle Brock and Aunt Erin's house. Erin's parents always come for Easter and they are sweet to invite us over as well. The only problem we get into is that Blake and Ben want to dominate Grandy's attention and it makes it hard for her to talk with Erin's parents. I hope they enjoyed their time once we headed off for nap time.


We ended our Easter day with our Sunday night dinner (6 adults and 6 kids). We have 2 great families that we get together with every Sunday night for dinner. We rotate each Sunday and it always provides great food and fun. Thanks to the Russes for hosting and the great steak and potato.

Here are some pics to capture our fun Easter weekend......
