Easter 2015

We had two separate Easter Celebrations this year.  Mom was out on Saturday and today we spent the afternoon at Michelle's parents.

I picked up mom around 12:00pm yesterday and we headed to our house.  We had brunch planned as well as coloring eggs.  Mom did not want to eat till later in the afternoon so we started the egg coloring.
 


 

Not sure who enjoys coloring the eggs more?  Mom or Brendan?
 
We had a great meal and a good visit with mom. Still hard for us not having Dad there.  This past Thursday was a year that he had passed.
 
After taking mom home Michelle and I did some shopping and got home late.  We got the kids to bed and then put together the Easter baskets.
 
Sunday morning we slept in a bit until Brendan woke us up.  He was really excited to get the day started.  The kids went through their Easter baskets and Michelle made biscuits and gravy.  After our breakfast we went to church.  After church it was on to mom and dad's house.
 
We had a very good meal and then it was time for the Easter egg hunt.
Get ready!

Hunting!

The big find!

We had a really nice time with our family.  Then it was home to settle in for the evening.  A very nice Easter celebration.  Lets not forget the true meaning of Easter.  Jesus Christ died for our sins so that we may have eternal life with him and our Father!
 
God Bless everyone!

We had breakfast and started to pack up.  I had put the bikes on the van Saturday evening while the grill was heating up and loaded a few things up.  We managed to get on the around just a few minutes after 12:00pm.   Michelle would take the first leg of the drive at the wheel of the van and I would rest.  We made a stop at a rest area in Manistique and I took a few photos. A lighthouse for Michelle.  A mouse in a tuxedo! We got back on the road and stopped at another rest area.   Very cool! Brendan made a friend. The were not to bad. Our next stop would be St. Ignace.  We wanted to eat at Clyde's Drive In.  However, after arriving the place was packed.  So we went to B.C. Pizza again.  After lunch we made our way to Castle Rock as we were not able to climb it on o...

Brendan's Last Birthday Party

So today we had another party for Brendan's Birthday.  We also celebrated MacKenzie's birthday today (hers was yesterday).  We had Michelle's parents here also.  This was about the 6th birthday celebration for Brendan.  Michelle made some really cool cakes for the two of them.   Brendan's Turtle Cake     Mackenzie's Owl Cake   Everyone arrived and we had a great meal and watched the Michigan/Michigan State game.  Very close game with Michigan pulling out the win in the last seconds.  There was cake and ice cream and the traditional Happy Birthday song.
