Hunting Eggs @ 9000 ft

This is what Easter looks like at 9000 feet!Both Mike and I were having a little trouble being in the 'spirit' of Easter--then we realized it was because we are so over and snow and nothing about Easter and snow makes you think, renewal, rebirth, new life. The boys were very into hunting eggs so after the snow stopped, Mike re hid all the eggs outside. Mike was determined to wear shorts because it was Easter and you are suppose to be able to wear shorts on Easter! Whatever--it made for some funny pictures.
Here they come! Hunting for eggs in their snow suites............


The dye all reactivated, it was messy, but made for some cool effects in the snow.

They were pretty easy to see in the snow.

"Hey this has snow on it!"
The boys really didn't seem to mind the weather.






Time for the big count. At least the deck had melted so they had somewhere to sit and count the findings.
"cheeeeeese"
Cooper is always eating snow!


We had a fun family day and I think the boys had a nice Easter. Hopefully next year it will at least try to be spring!

What brave little boys to go Easter Egg hunting in the snow. They seem to be having lots of fun.

The transition from tropical to tundra has got to be hard. I loved Michigan though and bet you'll love it too. Make sure you have AC wherever you are living for the summer. Though, you might be climatized for heat and humidity having lived where you did. I just about died the first week of our move to MI from heat. I was kind of a mental case at the time with a new baby and moving. Hope you're having a great time!
