Pears and Bunnies and Veggies, Oh My!

We had a busy holiday weekend! Saturday morning we were up early and off to the annual Pear Blossom Run. This is Doug's second year participating in the race. It was a lot of fun and he did an amazing job! Uncle Tom and Dallas also ran; both making it look like a piece of cake! What awesome athletes we have in the family. Everett will be running it in no time I'm sure!

Surprisingly no one looks like they are going to have a heart attack

We decided to skip the parade and street fair to head home and work in the garden. We planted our corn, carrots, radishes, green onion, and Walla Walla sweets, our lettuce, peas, cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli! It is so nice to have the garden in and done! We have to wait a few more weeks for the tomatoes and peppers. Ev and I also got some egg dying in that evening.

Veggies are in!

Dying eggs! What a mess!



Easter Sunday we headed to early service at church then home for a nice long nap (Ev and mom were tired and cranky!) before heading over to Grammi and Papa's house for Easter dinner and egg hunting. Ev was not really into the egg hunting, but was fascinated by the actual eggs, and the candy that they held. Candy is his new favorite food group. He had so much fun running around after his cousins outside. Outside seems to be the only place he wants to be now!

Looking dapper in his Easter best!

Excited about his Easter "wheelbarrow" from Grammi and Papa

We all looked pretty so we decided to take some family pics!
