Easter 2018

We had a wonderful Easter weekend.
The girls came home with John on Thursday.
We had to do our grocery shopping so they came with us to Aldi and Walmart.  They were good little shoppers and we had dinner at Culver's.
On Friday we did so many fun things.
We started by making dough for sugar cookies, then we dyed our eggs, frosted our cookies, picked up pine cones for grandpa, and went out to dinner after Courtney, Paul. Lissa, and Nathan arrived later on Friday.












Grandpa paid 25 cents per pine cone so they both made quite a bit of money!
I almost forgot, the girls also took their first spin of the spring in the Escalade.

I hope they never get too big for riding together in the Escalade!

We had planned to go to Elias on Friday for fish, but there were so many people there that we couldn't even get a place to sit in the bar area so we all decided to go to Bismark's instead.  Perfect choice.  We enjoyed great bar food and cheap pitchers.  John and I took the girls home while the other kids went out for a few beers.
It was a good night all around.

On Saturday, the girls went on their first Easter hunt to find their baskets.
The wigs were a big hit!
We all (except for marge) went to an Admirals game that night.  We ate at Rock Bottom before the game.
It was a fun night.  The girls loved their first hockey game especially the fights!
we had great second row seats.  John had his own seat away from the rest of us!












We also visited the Bronze Fonz on our way to the hockey game.
As you can tell by our outerware, it was unseasonably cold this whole weekend!

On Sunday, we all went to church, my kids sang with the rest of the school, it was wonderful.
After church it was more wigs, ham dinner, and then Alissa and Nathan left followed by Courtney and Paul.
The girls did another egg hunt and made a fair amount of money.  they stayed overnight with us and we did the zoo the next day.






















It was a chilly dat at the zoo but that kept the crowds away so we enjoyed an almost empty zoo!
We had a great day.
we got to see our red panda that we sponsor.  he was sleeping but we saw him!
The girls had a great time on the playground's merry go round.
we took them back home after pizza at Pizza Ranch.

It was a great Easter!
