Easter Morning

We stayed at Kirk & Shalisa's house, and my kids were excited to get their Easter baskets.  They all got new movies (badly needed for our long car rides), and the 3 little kids got a Beanie Boo, while Kason got a book to read.  We snapped some pictures of the kids on our way to church.

Easter at the Cave

We spent Easter weekend in Monticello, which was extra fun because all of Tige's siblings were there. We visited and played games, and especially enjoyed spending Saturday out at the Cave. We enjoyed a delicious potluck lunch, playing bball in the cave, a hike, rapelling, Easter egg Hunt, rolling eggs down the hill, and target shooting.

Coloring Eggs

In preparation for our Easter trip to Monticello, I cooked 6 dozen eggs to be rolled down the rock hill at the cave.   I waaaaay overcooked my hard boiled eggs, but I figured since they were just rolling them down the hill and wasting them, I didn't care that they were like cement.  I have to say my eggs held up remarkably well being thrown down the rocks, and my yolks were intact! :)  When we were finished coloring the eggs, the kids said "that's all?"  Sheesh.  I usually only make a dozen or 2, so you'd think 72 was enough.

Glitter Mountain

We've lived in St. George for 8 years, and only just became aware of "Glitter Mountain."  So we found it on google earth, took some doughnuts & chocolate milk with us, and went for a breakfast picnic.  The kids had fun chiseling little pieces of "diamonds" from the mountain and hiking around.
