Grandma ~ Mae ~ Hal

All of us....

Matt made Grandma show off her muscles... 79 years old and she looks like this! She puts many men to shame!
She used to come over and the kids would get their friends to arm wrestle her and she would whip them every time! Hilarious!

Easter Egg Hunt!

What happened to those warm days we used to have for the Easter Egg Hunt? The last two years have been so COLD! Once again we hid all the eggs in the house... Still really fun!

I have lots of pics of my kids on these stairs...now it is the some of our grandkids! Brings back a lot of memories...
I did something different this year... I bought prizes instead of candy. The kids each got coupons in their eggs....for different prizes. I think the moms were happier and it was actually cheaper than ALL THAT CANDY! However it took a lot of thinking on my part... The kids loved it and it may become a new tradition!

Macie and Mason hunting!

All the eggs.. FOUND~ !

Choosing prizes!

Too much to choose from...
