Maks' 14th Party!

Makayla had 5 friends over after school Friday. Celebrating her 14th birthday, which is Sunday. Dave had his garage all ready for them to have their sleepover, very nice with the hot tub and lots of amenities. But mostly the girls wanted to: TALK! Hmmm, I'm sure I wasn't that gabby as a girl, or was I? We got pictures of the boys as we waited for her friends to arrive, then some pictures of the actual gift opening, pizza and grandmas' experimental ice cream cake. Jody said it was good, but I have better ideas for my next one, so I'm thinking of making one for Mothers Day. Back to the party, here is the first video, we let the boys go in the garage so they could see Sis' decorations, but it was a short visit for obvious reasons:



We brought the jeep out of the garage so they could play with it. It's not charged, because we got the wrong charger, but Jacob decided to give brother a ride, a one-hp motor it was. I cranked the wheel so we would not run into poles and other objects:

Easter Day

Easter Service at church in the morning, then to Jodys' in the afternoon. Started off with hiding eggs. Jody & I hid them first for Kaleb and Mak, then Mak hid some easy ones for the little guys after they woke up and had their snack. After dinner Kaleb and Mak hid them for us 'old folks' and they were hard. Dave found the most, for sure. I think Jacob found more than I did, but don't tell anyone. Mak saw Nathan 'throwing' his Easter bucket onto his head, so I got out the camera. But, once I started filming, it didn't work so good. He kept missing.



This video is Jacob on the trampoline, he really likes it, but mostly under controlled conditions:



And here are some pictures of the day:
