Today we colored eggs

at Nomma and Grampa's house.  Uncle Seth was in town, so we just had to pay a visit.  Fortunately, we colored eggs before the power went out.  Unfortunately, the outage affected the Michigan State vs. Butler basketball game.  So, we listened to it courtesy of a hand-held-crank-it-yourself radio.  What a waste of time that was!

So much fun!
