Easter

So we just recently moved into our new house just two doors down from Mom and Dad. That being said it was only appropriate to have the first holiday at our place. So the Easter bunny was on his way. We had a total of 22 people in our house. It was so much fun.

In the morning Alex woke up to find that the Easter bunny had came and brought him a basket full of toy trains, cars, candy, and clothes. The day was off to a wonderful start. It was originally going to be our family of 3 and my Dad, his wife Pete and my stepbrother Danny. We also invited Mom and Dad Royer which also meant that we got Karli and Juarez because they were down to visit, and it was awesome. Amanda and Brad had his family here as well.

They were originally going to go to Lake Arrowhead for Easter, but decided to stay in town, which meant we got to spend the holiday with them as well. So we now added Amanda, Brad, their 3 kids, Brad's parents Mike and Deedee, Brad's sister and brother in law and their 3 kids as well.

We were also so excited to have some of our very best friends Shawn and Emily come over with their new little one Hyrum. So needless to say we had a house full. What started off as a small get together turned into a mini family reunion. Totally awesome. It was nice to have everyone together.

We, Alex and I, had died one dozed eggs and the Easter bunny had 3 dozed plastic eggs filled with candy. As for Amanda and her family... well, they died 3 dozed eggs and had a ton more of plastic eggs. All of our eggs together totalled almost 400 eggs. For just 7 kids. Talk about fun! The yard was covered in eggs. All the kids had a great time.

After dinner we all hung out, played a little rockband and enjoyed eachothers company. I would say not bad for our first party.
