Sp"EGG"tacular!!


Jeff and I took the kids and our friends, The Gorhams up to Island Park this Easter weekend. We had a great time!! We showed up to the cabin with about 7-8 inches of freshly fallen snow. (Doesn't look like we will be seeing summer anytime soon up there with snow banks still about 4 feet deep). Anyway, besides an overcast, windy friday, the rest of the weekend was absolutely beautiful. Saturday the Island Park Resort hosted an Easter Egg hunt for the kids. The plan was to have it indoors, but with the amount of kids that showed up, they had to move it out onto golf course (big piles of snow). It didn't last too long and the kids only scored about 3-6 eggs each, but how often do you get to say that you get to hunt for eggs in piles of snow! Afterwards, Sara and I took a quick run on the snow mobiles that the boys rented. We got back and Jeff and Randall headed out for a few hours. Sara was prepared with Easter games for the kids and later in the evening we did some egg dying. Easter morning came and there were eggs all over the place for kids own little hunt. They had a great time! We had a wonderful easter dinner thanks to Sara doing most of the work! Monday came too quick for us. We had a great weekend. Thanks Gorhams!

That's so awesome that you and the family got to do easter egg hunt in the snow. It's always nice to take a weekend away for home and have fun.

We wanted to write you a short note to let you know about upcoming changes with our family. We will be moving to Spokane, Washington in July/August this year. Blake has accepted a social work position at Eastern Washington University.

This was not an easy decision, but factors such as health care, children's education, housing, and financial reasons all had an influence on this decision.

Yes, we know it is crazy to leave Hawaii, and we will miss many things about living here.
