~Saturday Easter Egg Hunt~

On Saturday afternoon, we had our annual Ropelato Easter Egg hunt. The kids (including Dave) absolutely LOVE this Easter Egg hunt, because a lot of the eggs have BIG money in them. This year it was a little different than normal because Jeff's family all came down with the stomache flu, so they had their egg hunt earlier that morning, so that they would not get us all sick. I'm thankful for that, but we sure did miss them :) Also, Stacey and Nate didn't make it up until later that afternoon, so for our egg hunt it was just our family and Marc and Randee. I guess Marc didn't explain how the egg hunt worked well enough, because Randee was so confused as to why Marc, Dave, and Hunter kept running past groups of eggs. Later she found out it was because they were just looking for the gold and silver eggs (those ones were the ones with money in them, lol). Darinda had it set up so that the kids were in the front yard and the adults, and older kids, were in the back. So it was basically just Lexi and me in the front (Mckell was there for a little bit, but then she wanted to go out back with the others). We missed most of the action in the back. Dave kept running right infront of Randee to get a silver egg before she did, lol. Next year she'll know not to let that happen, lol. We had a lot of fun! Mckell waiting out front for the cousins to come:) She couldn't wait to start the egg hunt.

Hunter decided to join her.
Let the hunt begin!!!! Lexi was in heaven!


Dave found most of the gold and silver eggs, lol. He was the big winner this year :)

After our egg hunt, Darinda had made a yummy lasagna lunch for us. The kids had fun playing with their cousins when they came, and they LOVED watching Katelyn, Sarah, and Abbie hunt for their Easter Eggs. We must have worn the kids out, they all ended up curling up on Gandma's and Grandpa's bed to watch a movie. :)
