Easter 2021

Since we didn't have a chance to do Peep s'mores when we were at Tessa's house last, we were able to take home some Peeps to do on our own. Thanks, Auntie!

The girls had Friday off of school for the holiday, but were distance learning on Wednesday and Thursday again for school staff to receive vaccinations. 

After they got their school work done on Wednesday, the girls dyed eggs.

Wednesday night the girls went to Grandpa and Grandma Froemmings' to stay until Dana and I were planning to join them later on Saturday.

It was our friend, Dave's, 40th birthday on Friday night, so we went out to celebrate at Rough Cut, an axe-throwing place in town. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was actually really fun.

Dana loaded up our four-wheelers on Saturday and we all headed out for a nice ride right when we got to Kevin and Holly's.

The girls had picked out some stuff with Grandma at the dollar store in town and Brynn and Grandma made a fun scavenger hut with their loot.

Dyeing more eggs!

I was out early on Sunday morning looking for the Easter Bunny when I noticed the Son has risen. :-)

Grandma made Easter morning caramel rolls (yum!) and Clara thought she should add some M&Ms.

Happy Easter from the Froemmings!

My beautiful girl. 💗

Was Easter Sunday like three years long?! Why does she look so old in this photo?

On the hunt...

We were happy to finally be able to see Grandpa and Grandma Oberg.

They found their Easter baskets outside.

While we were getting ready to leave on Saturday to go to the farm, Dana noticed Mickey was not in his cage. We searched for quite a while, trying to find him. We knew he had been behind the fridge, but that's were the trail went cold. Finally we just had to give up and get going to Dana's parents', so Dana put a board as a ramp up to his cage and we put some carrots in there to try and see if that would lure him back in.

He was still MIA when we returned on Sunday evening and all of us searched around again for him. We knew he had been in Clara's room and back behind the fridge again. We didn't have a lot of hope of finding him....or even alive anyway. That was until Dana was lying awake in bed on Monday evening trying to listen for the little critter and heard something scurrying down the hallway. He saw Mickey scurry into the spare bedroom and got him trapped behind the door. He woke me up and then we got Brynn up and were able to get him into a shoebox and back into his cage.

I still can't believe that we were able to find him, first of all, much less actually get a hold of him to capture him again. He doesn't like to be held at all typically.
