Easter 2016

Easter for us this year started on Saturday, because the wee Winns 

spent the day-and-night with Mimi and Papa!  And what better place 

to start thinking about rebirth, than the Japanese Garden in the spring!

 

 Little Dude could really skip across those stepping stones! 

Don't let his Mom see this one:

 How many little monkeys do you see? 

And don't forget to count the ones cut from stone.

 Everybody likes feeding the fish!

 Here's a fun game called "Let's kill Papa"!

Finally, it's Easter morning.  

And the first thing you do is search for Easter eggs! 

After Church, everyone gathers at Mimi's house for dinner. 

But first a picture with Gaga!

This is not the picture, it's getting ready for the picture:

 Nope, still not the picture...

 Well, Jameson's ready, but...Oh never mind!

 Let's get one of the kids on the stairs...

 Wait! We almost forgot about the Honorary Kid, Uncle Corey!

I'll let these pictures speak for themselves:

Ok, that's a keeper!

Now let's play "Ride the bucking Corey!"

 These suspenders make terrific reins! Giddyup!

 Now for the backyard Egg Hunt!

 Aww, look what Janie found!         

 And now, in a time honored tradition, it's PINATA Time!

This year it's a pretty blue fish!

 Who doesn't love bashing a fish?

 All the kids knocked some candy loose,

 but nobody brought the fish down, 

until someone said "It's Corey's turn!"

We never even saw the swing. 

You can tell from all the turned heads it was a flying Fish.

 Happy Easter to all!
