Easter Weekend Continued...

The Easter Bunny had to find Hudson out in the desert and make a secret stop just for him.
He sure got spoiled!




Hudson and Gabriela lovin' each other. They are really close little cousins. They love playing with each other. I wish the picture turned out better.

Daddy and Hudson just chillin' by the fire.

We did a lot of 4-wheeling and geocaching. That was a lot of fun and Hudson loved finding "treasures". That kid could ride 4-wheelers all day. (Don't worry, he wears a helmet when we go, just not in this picture.)

Yup. He's all boy. He loves football.

So we were camped by this sheep herders camp. Most of the sheep had just been sheared. They drove them by our camp a few times. The kids loved seeing the "cowboy" on his horse, his dogs, and the hundreds of sheep go by. Right after this picture, one of the sheep got a broken leg right next to our camp. The guy just tried to make it stand up a couple of times, then just left it. All the women in our camp were boo-hoo-ing about the injustice of it all, so eventually, they got one of the men to get it loaded in the back of a truck and took it back to the sheep herders camp so they could "take care of it" and we wouldn't have to have a suffering sheep in our camp. (We are thinking the sheep herder probably would have shot it right there, but our whole camp with all the little kids were watching. Talk about a traumatic Easter!)


Chasing bubbles.

That's it! Hope you all had a Happy Easter!

P.S. People were getting sick with puking and diarreah in camp. I started to not feel well on the last day. Luckily, we headed home before I had to deal with the worst of it. And also luckily, it was only one of those 24 hour bug kind of things. Just a memorable note of the trip. I knew you all wanted to know.

LOL. It's just a cheap bucket from WalMart or somewhere and I just put stickers on it!

I should probably also mention only the very very top is full of stuff. It's full of newspaper and Easter grass.

Very cute bucket!! Great idea! It sounds like you had fun aside from the sickness at the end! We need to go camping together maybe towards the end of the summer when the baby is a little bigger Ü
