HAPPY EASTER!

bunny ears from ECFE
We hope everyone had a great Easter celebration in South Dakota and Minnesota. We had all of the Olsons in St. Peter for dinner and a hunt for plastic eggs. Because it really isn't spring in MN at all right now and we still have snow on the ground, the hunt took place in our basement. The kids didn't seem to mind b/c their baskets were full in the end.
It was a great weekend aside from Mom being sick and Charlie's trip to the ER on Saturday. He broke out in hives in the morning after having french toast with Mom and Dad. His whole lil body was covered in red blotches and his face swelled like a balloon. Of course, I knew what they were b/c I am the queen of hives. As we are sitting in the ER Tim says; "Well Mel I imagine we should be seeing your hives any minute now!" (I get hives from stress not allergies)
Ironically, this morning I had hives all over my legs - so thanks a bunch Honey.
In the end, we are grateful for a fun filled weekend and the company of family.
