Spring Break

Our Spring Break was fantastic as was our company.

On Friday, we drove out to Devil's Tower.

Sissy rode around the trail in style.

 

The kids enjoying the view.  I believe Kamber planned for a summer house down my the creek.

The Upton Easter Egg hunt didn't start until 1:00, so we knew we would need to plan for something to occupy the kids in the morning.  So we set up a scavenger hunt of sorts.  We gave each child a camera and set them out to take pictures of different objects or of themselves performing certain tasks.  They had to come back and show us the pictures before we gave them their next task.

Taking pictures of Jesus.

All the tasks eventually led up to an egg hunt.  Because it was a little drizzily, Jill and I set up the hunt indoors while the Brand and Dan took the kids over the school gym to get their final pictures.

After the hunt was over, we had the kids empty the eggs into a communal bowl for everyone to share, particularly for the adults.

In the afternoon we went to the community egg hunt. 

Boe helped Sport on his hunt.

 

Sport kept his hood low so that he didn't get distracted by the other hunters.

And they're off...

After the hunts we came home and colored some eggs.
