...blessings...: TOO MUCH FUN!

What a great weekend! It was packed full of fun and there were 412 pictures taken. And since there were so many great pictures and stories to tell I think I will break it up into pieces so those with dial up (coughcoughgrandmacoughcough) can enjoy without having to wait and wait and wait.

FRIDAY
We got up early and headed to my parent's house. Billy had fishing fever and was shaking in excitement. We got there and unpacked and he was off to pick up my brother and go fishing for the day.

My mom and I took the boys to Walmart for some last minute Easter goodies. After that we went to the strawberry patch. The boys picked 2 buckets FULL of berries and ate a few along the way. I think we came home with 7 pounds of strawberries.

Then it was lunch and nap. PawPaw came home and Garrett helped him outside while Lance was sleeping. After Lance got up it was fishing time for the boys. First they had to dig for worms and there were some big worms! Lance had a cane pole and Garrett had a fishing rod. After a few casts Garrett caught a small mouth bass. The first one caught in the pond. He was done after that. Lance's fishing was a little bit different. He just slapped the pole into the water. He did foul hook one fish but it got away.

Then there was some more playing and Aunt Lauren and Jenna ate supper with us. Uncle Joby showed up not much longer after that and they all played croquet. Bath time was next and then they made a nest for the Easter Bunny to leave a gift in.

Billy and Uncle Shane came driving up and had 2 fish. I think we caught more in the pond than they did.

Lance crashed after that and Garrett convinced Uncle Joby to put him to bed. He played Uncle Joby! He made him read a bunch of books and stay in bed with him because he was scared. Joby fell for it.

Clayton and Laurie arrived with their new puppy. Maggie is the cutest little fuzz ball! After we played and talked for a bit we all went to bed.

Now for the pictures:
