Yesterday, we ran over to Aaron's grandparents farm for their (big) easter celebration. The kids had a wonderful time looking at the cattle and running around in the yard.



(I have officially stopped caring about the line going through my pictures until I have the time to fix it.)

One of the easter traditions is apparently beating the everliving mercy out of a man strung up from a tree until he gives up his candy. Well, at least this year they had a man. Our children are too small to partake in such brutality, so instead they beat the tar and stuffing out of a star.



Sammi's the youngest and she had a wonderful time swinging away like a pro. See how seriously she grips that stick?



Nate swung away as well, and I think he might have actually hit the star a time or two. Of course, he's not a very aggressive boy (as of yet) and it was more like a lovetap. The older of the younger kids didn't mind too much, though, because that just meant that they might be able to break the pinata.

The big boys (and girls), though... Well, they persisted in beating up the poor man. Sadistically, he had a smile on his face the entire time.



Last, I'll leave you with a picture of this beautiful animal.



Moooo.
