An Early Easter at the Crockett's

Out to lunch with good friends a couple of days and then

surrounded by my beautiful daughters....who could ask for anything more.

But I GOT even MORE!

My life is at it's peak of happiness when I'm surround by my Grandchildren nd so it was the week of the 22-28th this March. Wecided to have Easter while Mary Ann, Dayton & Alan's entire family was in town. aren is coming to stay in Utah while she trains in Mortgage banking,

Alan came to spend 4 days playing with his brothers during March Madness,

And I was in heaven have the backyard busy with the laughter & fun of our Grandchildren.

Not to mention, it just happened to be my birthday & so we did it all.
I woke up early on the 24th, sang happy birthday to myself & made the granddecision that no one was going to ruin "My Day!" nd it worked!

Te Grand kids gathered to color Easter Eggs, then Julie Kaye & Mary Ann

took me out for a P.F. Chang lunch. (Yummy! It's my favorite place to eat & Scottie

surprised us and not only joined us, but treated us to alot of extra's! Thank you Scottie!)

Fun-fun-fun!

6 dozen eggs & it took us about 10 minutes with so many hands going. The wonderful thing is, the cousins are so thoughtful and kind to each other. Annette Bird gave us some of her "speciality" eggs.....that started out with natural color.

See the little tool to the right......well Max chooses just to use his hands.
The tools take too much time for him and he finishes up usually having purple hands.

This is Chase......he whipped my butt in Teatherball......Grandpa's too!

Sammy was giggling so hard when Izzy wanted to sit on her lap to swing, but then decided to lean back against Sammy to relax. It was so funny!

And everyone loves the zipline from the Shabin. Sambo drove the little tractor and gave the little kids rides in the double seat wagon. (Needless to say, we had to have a watch guard on hand to make sure clearance for the zip line didn't knock off a tractor driver!)

The little ones have a special seat for zipline fun.
