Wednesday we went back to Magic Mountain and meet up with some other fun people. Sydney decided she liked Bugs Bunny Land and didn't want to leave. She loved having Morgan take her on the rides. She was even a trooper when she tagged along with me, another mom and 9 other kids to go on the big people rides. That was a bit crazy--- did a lot of walking and counting and making sure we had everyone every few steps.
Thursday we stayed home and cleaned because WE WERE HAVING COMPANY!! Couldn't wait for our guests to arrive on Friday. The big boys decided that nachos needed to be had for dinner. We all decided that it was a great choice! We even had enough left over for two other meals! hehe
Saturday morning we colored eggs while we waited for the rest of our company to come... GRANDMA!
This went super fast... 18 eggs and 7 kids and one little lady who wanted one of every color. Big kids though were great and didn't care that they only did one.
After Grandma (Auntie) got here we went to lunch at Wendy's... yup all 12 of us and then went and fed the ducks.
Morgan is hiding...Addison, Chandler, Westley, Harrison and Spencer

After feeding the ducks we went to the mall and walked around.. yup all 12 of us! :) Then it was home to enjoy our Easter dinner a day early! Kids took forever to go to sleep so Easter bunny had to wait and wait, but Aunt Dean and Aunt Jenn had a good time talking.

Spencer- Addison- Chandler with their goodies
Morgan with her basket and bowl of cocoa puffs--- yes, we were very healthy this weekend.
This is the only picture I got of "Easter wear". We got dressed, went to Sacrament meeting, came home and got undressed. Oh well.
We had a nice, quick egg hunt in the backyard. Sydney was allowed to have a 30 second head start before we let the bigs go.
(yes, my son is wearing his black church socks with his shorts..... it's a Sunday tradition!
After a lunch of you guessed it... NACHOS we had to say goodbye to our FUN company. We were so excited to have our fun cousins come and grandma too! :) I don't think I have laughed so much for a long time. Aunt Dean was sneaky and left us all a little surprise in the garage. It's a tradition to have our "adult beverages" of Henry Weinheart root beer and orange cream soda. We already miss everybody and can't wait to see each other again. 4 hours is just too far away.
oh... almost forgot, the ladies played the men a game of Mexican domino's and beat their socks off AGAIN!!

Sounds like a fun weekend! Happy Easter
Looks like you had a fabulous spring break!
Did you paint?? Love the running shot of Sydney. We didn't get a family picture this year and I couldn't believe it - oh well, I suppose :) Happy Easter.
No, I didn't make my company paint! I wanted to have fun instead! ;)
Fun weekend!!
Looks like you had a packed house. Glad you could spend time with relatives for the holiday.
