Easter weekend '15

Easter weekend was so beautiful!  We thought it was a great time to take out the camper. :)  We went to Windmill on Friday night.  It was so nice to hang out as a family again in the camper.  We love it!  We even had a few visitors that night: Grandpa, Gigi, and Mav.

Hudson's new normal this season.

Lily loves our bed and watching movies!

Hudson being ornery and sweet!  ha ha

Saturday morning in the sun.  :)  I went for a nice run and then came back to breakfast.

We then went to see the kids' cows.


Meet Lily's cow! :)
She should have her calf late April.


We got to meet a preemie calf, Tircle.  :)


So sweet!


John and Mark have a nice calving cabin :) 

Mav loves showing the kids all the cows.

Meet Hudson's cow!

Then we went to Gma and Gpa's house.  My cousins Ryan and Marci and their families were coming for Easter weekend too.  There was a house full, but so fun!


My mom had asked a neighbor if we could borrow a baby lamb for a few hours.  The kids loved holding him and playing with him.  He was only 3 days old.





So cute!

We had fun that night and even some excitement with an possum by the back door!  Thanks Dad and Mav for saving the day. :)  We enjoyed being close in the camper so we didn't have to drive home just to come back the next morning.


Hudson had been getting into the habit of joining us in our bed.  Bad habit, but so cute! :)

The Easter bunny came to the camper! :)

clock, clothes, movies, candy, legos, crocs


We got all dressed up and headed to church for breakfast and an Easter egg hunt.




Happy Easter!

Elsbury and Ferzely kids

We love Grandma!

Virgie got this picture of all the boys at church.  The two in red are Ryan's boys.  We are just missing Garrett (Marci's son).  

Widdowson great-grandkids.  Grandpa Jim and Grandma Winnie would have loved to watch these kids grow up.  What fun we would have had! :)

Wow, what a fun group!

The Easter service was great and definitely helped us appreciate what Easter means. 
We then went out to visit Mullen, Aunt Pat (Ryan and Marci's mom), and Grandpa and Grandma

Virgie caught a cute moment I had with Hudson.  He was touching Mullen's face.  He had SOOO many questions.  Very hard questions for me because he kept asking why????  Where is he?  Is he coming back?  Can I hug him?  Maybe I can hug him on Friday?  Why was he sick?  Does he love me?  

My oh my.....I wish I had the answers, but I don't understand it either. :(






We love you Mullen John!


Last years picture.  Look how much taller they have all gotten! ;)
8 Grandkids...how awesome

Then we went and had a wonderful Easter meal and then the much awaited egg hunt!


Listening to the rules.

Hudson went first.  He had little eggs.

They are off!



Taking a break!


Counting money!



What a wonderful Easter!
I ended up not feeling well and took a nap in the camper.  We went home earlier than we were wanting since I wasn't feeling well. :(  Thanks mom and dad for a great weekend!  I am glad we could all get together and even see Marci and Ryan.  Jeni and Scott Oliver and their kids came out too.  :)

Bumps for Lumps

I got asked to play in a volleyball tournament for Breast Cancer.  It made me realize how much I have missed volleyball.  :)  We had fun!  After pool play we made it into the silver bracket.  We lost those. :(  I hope I get to play with these ladies again. :)

Catch up post! **bunch of fun** :)

Matt picked up a loader in Doniphan and drove it to our new land south of Gibbon.  Hudson went with him to do dirt work.  Lily and I met them on their way back.




Lily performed at the Good Samaritan home.



I chose not to order this picture from State Cheer, but it sure is cute!

Virgie came to watch and play with the kids so I could go play volleyball.



Playing in the beautiful weather



We made Easter nests for Lily and Hudson's friends and teachers and a few of my friends.

Beautiful sunrise

Working out...no big thing!

My little bunny.
She made us a cute card that said,
"Some bunny loves you!" :)

I happened to see this picture after Matt and I had a 2 year old visitor in our bed 3 nights in a row.  How does a person so little take up soooo much room???  

He loves his maggots.....that is what he calls them! :)

Hudson came out to the living room with his piggy bank.  I asked him more than once to put it away. Well, I went back to my room and heard a crash and little foot steps running to me.  His piggy bank shattered and money was everywhere.  Well, I have been wanting to deposit their money in the bank, so I guess now is a great time.  I told them each to write their name on the bag and this is how Hudson writes his name.  I remember Lily writing lines for her name too.  :)


My lunch dates on our Friday off.  Just missing Daddy...someone has to work I guess.


Lily teaching Hudson to bat.  Oh, and Oasis photo bombed.  ha ha!


Matt and I became part owners of a farm with my family.  This is our new pivot! :)  Just call us Farmer Matt and Farmer Abby!  We are excited for this new business opportunity.


Storm Hockey

We met a bunch of our friends at the Storm Hockey game on a Friday night.  Hayley and Aubree rode with us. :)

They had fun together in the back seat.  It was funny to eavesdrop on their conversation.  2 year olds are funny :)

We got free water bottles!



Dancing!




Only a few of us...missing Ashley, Danielle, their kids, and the Daddies

What a ladies man!


Starting to get tired.

We left when there were a few minutes left.  The Storm ended up winning! :)
