The Easter Bunny Visits Gridley

On April 16th we headed to Rich's parents to go to the dentist (Rich's dad) and to celebrate Nona Alicia's birthday. It was nice because the cousins that live in the area were also able to come, so we had a nice family party. Alicia requested Chinese food and carrot cake. For her presents she got a lot of flowers, a hand mixer, a book, and a riding lawn mower for the orchard.

While we were there the Easter Bunny dropped by to hide eggs. Rich's parents were in Oregon for Easter, so the Easter Bunny did not visit them until this week. This was Ava's first Easter egg hunt and she had a good time. I strapped her into the baby bjorn and off we went. Ava got a lot of candy that she will have to share with her parents and some money to put into her savings account. All the cousins had a great time and once again Rachel was the big money winner. She really is the best Easter egg hunter I've ever seen. Once the eggs were found the kids had fun going through them to see what they got. I enjoyed listening to them barter for different candy or toys...kids are so smart and funny.
