Easter Trip to Michigan (Part 1)

Hi friends! Let me tell you about my first trip to Michigan! It started a little rough, but ended up great.

Daddy was working in Indiana all week and was driving to Michigan. Mommy and I were supposed to fly to Michigan on Good Friday. We got to the airport in the morning and found out that the flight was delayed. When the plane did get there, they announced mechanical issues and eventually cancelled the flight. We could fly out that evening, but I made it very clear that I was already not happy about being in the airport as long as we'd been there! I was told I would be getting on a plane! So, Mommy and I drove all the way back home and spent the night and then did the whole airport thing again the next morning! At least I got to ride the bus to the Economy parking lot several times! That was fun! Mommy was not a happy Mommy on Friday, but it turned out fine when we finally got there.

On Saturday afternoon, our friends Blain and Sarah threw a party at their house so we could see some of our friends. I had so much fun playing with their son Trevor, who is about 6 weeks younger than me, and I loved playing with Christian and Tobey too (Big Brandon and Stephanie's kids).

They had an Easter egg hunt for the kids! Here are some pictures:

I developed a great strategy for getting tons of eggs! I would run out and get a few eggs and then bring them back to my basket! Who needs to carry around that bulky basket? That just slows you down!

The only problem with that strategy is this: Trevor sees a full basket and thinks, "Hey! Look at all those eggs!"
and while I was distracted posing for a picture for my Mama...
he grabs it!
And off he goes!
So long basket! I wish I had someplace to put this ball...
Here is Tobey! He's the littlest one. Big brother Christian is helping him with the Easter egg hunt.
Here's Trevor and his mama Sarah. They were so nice to let Mommy and me stay with them for 3 nights! It was like having a brother!
Here I am looking cute in one of my classic poses on top of a slide.
Trevor has this awesome sand table! I played out there for so long! I have to get one of these!

Here are all of us boys getting fed by our daddies!
We also dyed eggs! Well the kids weren't so into it, and there were LOT of eggs to be dyed, so all the grown ups had to help. Mostly the ladies did the dying, but they made the guys have a turn.
Hmmm...Should I share my snack with Bailey? I don't think so.

More pictures in the next post from Easter Sunday!
