Super Secret Easter Weekend!
The whole Ditto family was together for "Easter"...at least that's what we told Grannie we were getting together for! Saturday we played at the park together and the girl cousins did a lot of posing...the picture of above is hard for me to look at without feeling like all the blood in my body is rushing to my head...
More posing...
Grannie organized several games for our Saturday Easter picnic...Hailey was particularly intense during the egg-on-spoon-balancing race. She and Jane (her partner) were last by far...but they didn't drop that egg!
Maren just gets to sit around looking cute all the time...it's a tough job, but she's got it down.
There are 4 pictures like the one taken above, and Addison is doing the same snarly face in all of them...where did he learn that?
And now we come to the REAL reason that all the Dittos came together on this super secret weekend...a SURPRISE PARTY for Grannie! for the record, her birthday isn't for another couple weeks, but this weekend was the one that everyone could make work- so we planned, videoed chatted, emailed, snail mailed, and phone-called for months planning the giant shin-dig! My job was the decorations...clearly our color scheme was yellow and silver- and thanks to pinterest, we had some great decorations!
And was Grannie ever surprised! and actually we were all surprised that one of our 500 children didn't spill the beans! Way to go kids!! We put on a "program" for Grannie, but that is all on video- no pics of the LOVELY costumes, dances, lip-syncs, etc. SORRY!
Speaking of video, here is the videographer himself! Maybe we'll watch the footage of the party on the actual birthday :)
The festivities didn't end with the party...Easter Sunday our newest nephew- Emmett- was blessed! Welcome to your HUGE crazy family Emmett!
Easter dinner at Grannie's was delicious and entertaining! Games, candy hunts, makeovers, you name it! Such a fun weekend!!
