Happy Easter Everyone

Once again, we went to the ranch in San Marcos for the annual Easter Egg Hunt. It was wonderful as usual and the kids found dozens of eggs.
Here some of the kids are just relaxing on the lawn before the egg hunt.
The big attraction for Ethan was playing with the dogs.
The kids loved the games ahead of time.
Gavin, Coco and second cousin Larkin pose for a picture.
Megster led the kids in some warm up exercises just before they ran out into the field for the egg hunt.
And they're off. . .
The grass in the field was so high this year. . .the kids had to look extra hard to spot the eggs.
Ellie had a lovely time walking through the grass.
Gavin got plenty of eggs.
Stephanie helped little Sofia find her share of eggs.
Ethan was looking hard to find as many as he could.
Next it was time for the pinata. . .Gavin showed his skill gained from t-ball practice.
Ellie swung hard. The pinata finally broke and there was plenty of candy for all.
On Easter morning, we all got up extra early to make it for the Easter Sunrise Service at 6 a.m. at the Covina Forest Lawn. The speaker was very good and the So Cal Mormon Choir was exceptional. They let doves fly out at the end when the choir sang the Hallelujah Chorus from Handel's Messiah. . .it really started the day out well.
