It was really special to have a cousin come today to the picnic..
Here's Daniel and his cousin Jeffrey

David asked for a Webkinz skunk..

and a chipmunk too

After we ate, the kids had a Frisbee game to play..

Of course, some assembly required first..

Joyce's cake

I decided to have an egg hunt later this afternoon.. just
something a little different.. So I filled 15 plastic colored eggs for each child
with a piece of gum or candy and a few coins.. and then herded kids inside
so we could hide them outside. It really was quite fun!

Everyone got into the act..

Paul3 had black eggs.. and a toad he found while he was
searching for his eggs.

We did have set borders for where the eggs would be hidden.
Try a black egg hidden under the wiper blade of my car.. ugh

Annabelle had yellow and gold and pink eggs

5 birds.. they are growing up fast..
