Easter 2011

Camping gets so much easier and so much better as the kids grow up. This year's Easter camping trip was even better than any we have had before. We were able to stay for the whole time, and the kids just wanted to be like the adults. So A2 had to help Grandma set up the trailer.
And A1 had to help Grandpa light the lanterns each night.We hiked during the day and played games at night. Everyone helped cook (the kids' favorite thing was getting the water to do the dishes at the end of the meal) and everyone helped play. It was such an awesome trip.
The main event was the big Easter Egg Hunt, just like every year. And just like every year, A1 begged to have Grandpa as her hunting partner. Will anyone ever be better than Grandpa?This year, A2 decided that the only acceptable hunting partner was Aunt Megan. It made his day when she decided to arrive earlier than expected, and he spent the rest of the trip tagging along after her. I do have to say that Aunt Megan always was my favorite hunting partner too.And for all the hard work of finding where the Easter Bunny left the eggs, the kids (and the adults) were rewarded with large bags of candy and Zhu Zhu pets. What a haul!We love camping!
