I woke up Friday morning missing my Mom, so I asked Tyler if we could go up to Utah for the weekend. Since we had nothing better to do we went. We didn't tell anyone that we were going so it was a total surprise.
On the way up we stopped at the county fair. Our friends Cory, Sarah, and John were there with their race car track. They got us in, and we had so much fun visiting with them. Nathan got to race a million times, ride ponies with Abigail, and had a blast! We were there for a few hours, until storm started to blow in and we decided to continue on the road.
My Mom was totally surprised when we got there. It was fun to do something like that.
On the way to the house we noticed a banner about the annual Easter Egg Hunt they have up by my parents house. We got up super early the next morning dyed our eggs, and then it was time for the hunt. I was feeding Ava, so I sent Tyler and Nathan down to the field without us. Right after they got there it started sprinkling. They were back within 30 minutes, but Nathan got so much stuff! They divided the field into age groups, and let them get as many eggs as they could. Some eggs had numbers on them that corresponded with different big prizes. Nathan ended up with a big new ball, a stuffed bunny, a hat/mitten set, mini golf passes, free DQ cones, candy, and so much more. It was AWESOME!
After that we headed to Tyler's parents house (they also didn't know we were in town). We had fun visiting, and eating candy. It was such a great day.
On Sunday I woke Nathan up early to check out his basket. He was so excited. We had a yummy pancake breakfast, and then went to church. The kids looked so cute in their springy clothes. After church, we came home and had more good food.
It was a beautiful day, and I am so glad that we were able to spend the weekend with our families. Thanks Dear for taking us up there! I love you!!!
