Easter 2012

Matt, Adam and I went to Magdalena for Easter weekend to join my dad's side of the family at the ranch.  The ranch is nestled at the foot of the Magdalena Mountains, between Magdalena and Socorro.  We started the festivities with some of the adults hiding Easter eggs while the rest of the adults got food ready for grilling and serving.

After the family ate, Pat handed out Easter baskets that he and Brittany had gotten for all the kids.  It was such a great surprise, all the kids were super-excited to get a basket full of goodies.  While the baskets were handed out, Adam stood in the background watching each kid get a basket, not knowing if there was one for him.  He was so happy when Pat walked over and handed him his.  And Matt and I were very, very grateful.

Adam's favorite find: carrots filled with candy

The food was wonderful and there was plenty for everyone.  The day was sunny and breezy, perfect for being outdoors and for flying the kites that were part of the kids' Easter baskets.
