As Easter Sunday approached, we still had no plans. Although I was perfectly content to go out and have a nice Easter Brunch, just the two of us, I was still happy to receive a last minute invitation to Trevor's parent's house in Bemidji. We were even able to work it out to pick up the kids on our way there, so they got to come and see their cousins.

We also got the opportunity to start working on our wood supply for next winter. Trev's parents had given us a very nice woodshed, so we want to get busy filling it up with wood so the wood will dry as much as possible.

| It's true that "many hands make light work". Thanks for all the help! |
The kids got 4-wheeler rides from Nana (Grandma Tobin) while we did all the hard work! Isn't that the way it always goes!

Trevor's parent's house is very interesting. They built it themselves many years ago, and over time it has collected many odd knicknacks. I like wandering around their yard and looking at the various sculptures, furniture, and other items scattered about.

We were there all day Saturday, so we had a lunch of Mac n' Cheese, Pizza, Chili, and Pretzels. Some people decided to mix all of these food items together.
 |
| Some people are very creative. |
 |
| The food caused me to turn into a zombie. |
After lunch it was family picture time!
Kathy, Hillary, Adam and I proceeded to play a game of Scrabble, whilst Trevor went for a walk to see the sights. His parent's live on a tree farm, so they have many acres full of trees in various stages of life.

big dent in the pile of wood. |

It was a beautiful weekend and we were so glad they invited us to come up and enjoy it!
