Easter

So this is my first post ever I think, Eth is making dinner and I just walked in the door from school and she was going to do this, but now I am. So lets get down the details about our fun and fabulous weekend. Ethney's mother (Barbie), little sister (Shelby) and Shelby's prom date (Braedon) all ventured in for the weekend. If you're not familiar with the exciting story of Shelby getting booted out of the USA, let me give you a quick recap. She came to school here in Boise for her senior year, went home for Christmas, and was never let back in. Anyways, Barbie, her and her date all spent the weekend here. On Friday we went to the last home Stampede game(a Developmental NBA team) and they won which was good. Since then they have lost their first playoff game and are done but whatever. The game was a blast and the halftime show was even better. A group called quick change was the entertainment, and let me just say if you have never seen them stop reading this not so hot post and go youtube them, its a way more exciting use of your time. We ended up staying up until about 2:30 in the morning playing mario kart wii that night, we tried going to bed but Barb was a bit addicted and wouldn't let us. On Saturday we went to the zoo and checked out the new giraffes and lions and Braedon and Shelby went to prom. We did get to go out to eat with them at the Cottonwood Grille, which was a bit too classy for me, but great food. The highlight of the entire weekend though was Easter. Church was good, don't get me wrong, but the after party was even better. We decided to load up some plastic easter eggs and go for a hunt, but to make it a little more exciting we headed across the street to a big empty field. We all went around and hid 4 or 5 eggs, and then began the search. Let me tell you something, Barb is a great easter egg hider, so good in fact, than 45 minutes after all the other eggs were found, Barb herself could not find the two largest, most copioulsy filled eggs, which she herself hid. I can assure you that as I type this very post some squirrel is out in that field enjoying my Lindt chocolate. After the exciting egg hunt we decided just to paint some eggs, and I was pretty surprised at the artistic expression that can be portrayed on an egg. Well I got to go eat, so check out the pics for a complete viewing of the weekend.
