Easter Weekend

Alana came home from her second semester at BYU Law and immediately was set to work helping her nieces and nephews dye the Easter Eggs.
The following day, we all went down to the ranch in San Marcos for the annual Easter Egg Hunt. The grass in the field was really high this year. A new calf was born at the ranch so the kids enjoyed seeing him.
Alana and Natalie helped the little kids play pin-the-egg-in-the-basket. Thanks to Megster and Megan for the fun games for the little children.
Everybody brought side dishes for the lunch - and the food was plentiful and good.
The kids, even the big kids, got to hunt for the eggs in the field.
Nice cake by Katie and Natalie. Good thing Jerry was there to help scoop the ice cream.
Gavin got quite a haul of candy.
Ellie was excited with her Easter Eggs.
It was a pretty big group this year.
The pinata was a big hit with the little kids.
Ellie and Gavin had a great time.
Ethan decided to tackle one of the cupcakes. . .
and he really enjoyed it.
Ethan then decided to pull Larkin around in the wagon.
Coco didn't feel great so slept through most of the day.
Thanks to Eileen for hosting another great egg hunt. Here are the two Ferguson siblings.
On Sunday morning, we all awoke early to go to Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills for the Easter Sunrise Service at 6 a.m.. The doves were released at the end when the Hallelujah Chorus was sung.
Sue, Beth and Brad did a great job singing at the Sunrise Service. Steve, Alana, Grammie and Grampie came this year also, which made it extra nice.

I've never been to an Easter sunrise service - I should put that on my list!
