We had a excellent excellent Good Friday.
The Moxley's spent the day at the Miguels
coloring eggs, making a Birthday Cake, hiding eggs, using the sling shot for eggs, laughing and having a great ol' time.
Everyone arrived throughout the afternoon- but it stated with a Birthday Cake for Maren. Chocolate Cake batter and White Cake batter, then dyed the white into 4 color... we had good intentions but it didn't quite work it. Oh well, the idea was cute.
Next up- the yearling egg coloring. The cousins took shifts coloring eggs... to many cousins and eggs and potential spillage to do it all at once.
After the coloring the older cousins tried to school Aunt Heather in fashion choices. They tried to convince me that socks and sandals are cool- we spent 15 minutes arguing this horrid fashion choice and I maintain DONT DO IT.
The big cousins were kind enough to hide eggs in the backyard for the little ones to find. Always a highlight for the kids.
After the candy hunt, we brought the giant slingshot out and spent the next hour Egg "Rolling"
What a blast, the kids either spent the time using the sling shot, trying to catch the eggs, rolling the eggs down the hill (the super young ones) or like Remy, just rolling themselves down the hill.
The eggs went crazy high, and after Justin, Devin, James and Cyril tried to catch them in their bare hands, blankets, hats, and hoodies were used to catch the eggs. Let me say they were coming fast and hard.
Only missing 4 family members in this awesome Family Selfie.
Marens cake was the perfect end to the great day... that and a few more pictures and wrestling matches.
