The Pease Family Easter Egg Hunt

Every year my family gets together for an Easter egg hunt the Saturday before Easter. The Mulford's always go to Grover so we have to do the every other year thing. This year we stayed home and went to my mom's. It was fun!


See how cute she looks when her mom does her hair!!



The one who was only trying to find the money eggs!!

Some day when he thinks he is all cool and tough I can use these pictures for blackmail!!!

Let me tell you about Brigham. They were supposed to find a certain amount of eggs. Aunt Kathy had brought money eggs (always a favorite of the kids). Some had the gold dollar coins, some had dollar bills, and there were 5 that had a 5 dollar bill in them. Well, Travis was in charge of helping Brigham count his eggs and he had 5 too many. Travis told him to pick which ever 5 he wanted and go put them back. He chose a 5 dollar egg! Travis made him hide it good! The kid still got 6 dollars from the egg hunt. He smells money, not candy!!!!

Thanks to Alexis for helping Adela. She is showing her where a money egg is in this picture! Thanks Aunt Steph for the cute bows!!

THE INFAMOUS CAKE!

I was only in charge of making a salad but there are two traditional desserts for Easter. Carrot cake and sugar cookies. I decided to make both. I made the cakes on Friday night at 10:00. I knew if I didn't I wouldn't do it. Well I baked the cakes and left them on the stove to cool and I planned on getting up early to frost the cake and the cookies. When I got up I couldn't find the cakes. My inital thought was, "That d*** dog!!" Yes my dog has been known to eat things off my cupboard. I looked everywhere for the pans. I couldn't find them. Nor was there a massive amount of crumb mess that is usually left when the dog does this. I kept searching and wondering where they were. My next thought was, "The mice carried them off!!" First, yes we were dealing with a mice problem at this time. Second, yes I really thought of that as a viable option. That goes to show you just how crazy and upset I was that I couldn't find my cakes. I finally went and asked Travis if he knew where they were and he had put them up in the cupboard where the mice nor the dog could get them! Thanks Babe!! (This was also my poor attempt to decorate a cake!!)

The yummy cookies!
