We had an Easter egg hunt outside on our porch. And yes, it only took 5 minutes since it's only 8x8 feet.
All the
Ebmeyer grandkidsI started to cry when I saw them all together like this. Funny story though too...We got to AV like 5 minutes before this pic was taken and for some reason Reagan decided she was going to be shy today and wouldn't get in the pic. If you look in the back left corner Reagan is the 3 year old that's 6 feet tall
bc Brock had to hold her up and hide behind cousin Callie.
My little Buster Brown. He looks like a little boy in this pic not just a baby.
We took lots of professional family pics this day bc all of Brock's 9 bros and sis were together for the first time in forever. His parents also had their homecoming talk in church.
Easton and
Brinley Blad. The
Blads ventured up to the High D and spent Easter Apple Valley sytyle. They wanted to get a firsthand look at the
humungo strawberry shortcake they had been hearing about for so many years.
Brock getting in his yearly baking. He likes to pretend that he has his dad's skills in the kitchen. I wish he did. I guess you have to actually know how to open the fridge by yourself if you want to be a real baker
Karlyn, Reagan, and
Laken Bacon

Blad, Brock and all the boys were playing "3 flies" I decided to get a mellow pic in the mix instead of incriminating them with the pics where they're flat on their faces.
Reagan got hooked up by the Easter Bunny!
Reagan and Luke probably bounced on the tramp for 5 hours that day.
A much over due girls trip! My college buds Amy Gant, Tennille Smith, & Jen Sumner (we missed our bud Alison bc she's ripe with child) hit the road and we spent the weekend at this fabulous resort in Palm Springs. It was amazing. But really we could have gone anywhere as long at we were unencumbered and free to talk as long as we wanted. How great to sleep in and stay up late to watch movies. Going out to eat and not have to order my meal based on what Reagan could share with me, lay out at the pool, read, swim, was fabulous!! Just to be able to sit and talk for hours and catch up on our lives and laugh and laugh about all the crazy things we did in college was priceless.
Amy is taking up a new hobby, photography, she was trying out some shots on us. It was fun to pretend like we were young again and do some crazy model poses. Jen and Tennille know all the lingo from America's Next Model so we were trying it all out.
Reagan's fort made by daddio. And of course Reagan had to have all her stories read to her in her new little house.
I thought this was funny bc I didn't know where it came from or what was in Reagan's mouth. The crazy things Dad and Ragu do while I'm away. I finally realized what's in her mouth today bc she did the same thing when I gave her some string cheese for lunch. Who knew string cheese could be so fun and so delicious all at once?
I thought it would be cute to see if Easton would sit on this chair for a picture and then Reagan said "OK mommy my turn" So as you can see in the picture below she sat in the chair and posed for her own picture.
Happy Memorial Day. This is the only picture I remembered to take of the day but it's pretty accurate when describing our day b/c I think Reagan only left the jumper once to eat a plate full of watermelon and then she was back to it again. We had a ward picnic at Lake Park. We had loads of fun but then it was funny bc we were sitting with a group of friends who all have kids and I think there were about 10 baby car seats in our section and then at about 1:00 the whole section cleared bc we had to all be back home for naps....that's our life. It's a love hate relationship that I have with naps! It's hard to work around them if we want to go anywhere but what a joy it is to have my kids down so I can actually sit down and not have anyone yapping in my ear for a bit.....ahhhh the sweet sound of silence!
I can't believe how big my kids are getting.
Reagan asks me to play Play-doh with her daily. We probably played for an hour today and I think I had more fun than she did.
Reagan thinks it's the neatest thing to have Easton lay with her in her bed. So we have to do this at least once daily. 
Oh to be a kid again!!
Paije & Reagan kept doing this over and over...kind of funny!
EZ didn't do any swimming today. Poor guy has to just hang out while we swim.
You can't get together with the Ebemyers without some good grubbin so we called in a favor from our good friend Aaron Hixon to help us out with his amazing tri-tip bbq recipe. Aaron is always so willing to help, thanks! 
Merridith, Reagan, Luke, & Jordan about to get on the bus.
Farmer Reagan! They got to eat as many strawberries as they wanted. Brock said he ate so many he made himself sick. They also got to pick other veggies and stawberries to bring home for me!! 
Yum! I think Reagan ate hers faster than Luke. And all who know Luke know that's hard to do.
