Easter Weekend Rendezvous

My sister Dani keeps calling & whining about how I haven't blogged lately or haven't put up pictures from Easter weekend at the Mountain Man Rendezvous. I guess now is as good as time as any.

Every Easter weekend we go to Fort Buenaventura in Ogden, Utah. This year was no different. We headed up Thursday morning and set everything up and relaxed that evening. It was a pretty cold that first night but the following nights weren't as bad. Friday was the first full day. The kids ran around and enjoyed themselves. We always camp right by the river and the children love to throw rocks into the river, but then again, what child doesn't? There was an area right next to us that I think had grass but had TONS of leaves. The kids had a blast playing in the leaves and burying one another. They had candy cannons for the kids through out the weekend & on Sunday they had an Easter egg hunt (if that's what you can really call it). The Easter bunny also came and left them goodies. We ended up coming home Sunday night instead of on Monday but we still had a good time. My Dad was up there along with my sister Jessica & her family & my brother James & his family. It was a blast as always!

Here are the girls playing in the leaves. That mound of leaves in between Lauren & Izzy is Elizabeth. They enjoyed burying each other underneath them.

They have a love/hate relationship. They are a year apart. Elizabeth, Izzy & Kayden playing.
CJ w/his cool mohawk...that was SUPPOSED to be shaved off when we got back...yet it is Friday, 5 days later & it is still there. It WILL be gone by the time school starts on Monday!

Easter Morning~ Baskets & Egg Hunt
I didn't get pictures of CJ getting the eggs, I only managed to get one of him & Zach just before the "hunt".

Cutie Patootie Izzy
One day Clark saw Izzy "washing" dishes. She must have watched me and Jessica one too many times and felt like it was her turn. Too cute! Now, if I can get her to do the dishes at home I will be set!!

NapTime
I went to check on Izzy one day after I put her down for a nap and this is how she was sleeping! Too cute! I love the hands behind her head!
Izzy went on a walk with Grandpa Kurt, I know most of these pictures are the same but I just thought it was TOO cute to not post them all!!
