Grandma Comes for a Visit

Grandma was just here for a week and the boys sure had a great time with her! She was here for Easter weekend so there was lots of Easter themed activities that we could do.  Ty played a lot of lego with Grandma as well . . .



Playing outside on the path across the street.  Ty is getting quite proficient at climbing and Zeke LOVES books and takes them everywhere!!
We went for a walk to the dyke one day.  Zeke also loves animals and Ty and I did most of the walking while Zeke stood with my mom and looked at all the birds.

Yes that is a half shaved Niko behind us.  Moral of the story . . . Niko's hair is really thick and hard to shave.  

Getting ready for bed:


On Good Friday we headed to the Tulip Festival in Agassiz.  It was beautiful and VERY busy.  We got there in the morning but when we left at noon, the cars were backed up for at least 5km.  Crazy!


Enjoying a tulip cookie at the tulip festival!

Chilliwack is all about tulips and quading this time of year! After admiring the beauty of the tulips we had dinner at the river with some friends.  This was the last weekend before the river rose and there were hundreds of people camping.  It's own little city.  Zeke was very happy to go for a quad ride with Daddy again.
Ty, Grandma and Mommy made easter eggs one day while Zeke was napping:



Here is Ty telling Zeke all about how he made the eggs and whose egg was whose.  So cute!



Easter Sunday best. . . Nice tops, dirty pants (or no pants) and rooster tail hair.  That's how we roll.  Oh and mismatched socks.

The Easter bunny quite enjoys the path across the street from our house and so hides the eggs up the trail.  It was fun to see how excited Zeke was this year.  He has his fathers love for chocolate and would eat it for every meal if we let him.  (He also loves 75% dark chocolate.  The nut!)






For Easter dinner we invited Brad and Launa and family over and had a great time with great food!


For Christmas my dad gave Ty a rocket launcher that we finally set up while my mom was here.  This is a crazy rocket launcher and it launched a pop bottle at least 60 feet in the air.  So fun! Ty loved pumping it up before pulling the tab to let it go.  He and Marc would then run to the front yard to see where it landed.









Thanks for all the fun times Grandma!!  We miss you!!!
