Easter Weekend

Easter weekend has been a busy weekend for us.

Saturday began with us travelling the hour and a half to Frankfort. We then went to a senior citizen center for the Sweasy Family Reunion. Sadly, we were so busy catching up with people that the photo to the right, which we took on the way into the center, was the ONLY photo that we took. It was good to see everyone, though, and maybe I'll get some photos from someone else in the family that I can share here.

We left Frankfort and went straight to church for Saturday night Easter service and then came home and went to bed.

Sunday was the Blaine Family Easter. After sleeping in a little we got up and boiled 2 dozen eggs because we were bringing the deviled eggs. We then headed to Grandma's house for a big Easter celebration. It was good to actually see Grandma at her house. She looked to be in good spirits. There were a number of members of the family there, as these photos show:





Shelley did the cooking, and her restaurant sponsored all trips to the powder room:



Uncle Alex did his version of Grampa Blaine's famous egg trick, which you can see below in this video:



Finally, there was an Easter egg hunt. My plan was to video a little of the hunt and then take some pictures, but I forgot how quickly these things go, so by the time I turned the video off the whole thing was over and I got no pictures at all. Oh well, here you can watch ten or fifteen kids running and screaming like crazy:



It was a fun weekend.
