Easter 2012 in Nebraska!

Von and I treated ourselves to a trip to Nebraska to visit son Dave and family during their Spring Break when the kids were out of school.

At a movie, "Mirror, Mirror".

A trip to the Air and Space Museum outside Omaha.

Von worked on one of these back in the beginning days of his AF career, EC 47.

Tanner swinging on a vine at the zoo. Fun and busy place, since the aquarium had just opened up after a remodel. Crowds were thick!

In the desert dome exhibits.

Lunch at McDonalds. Drink in the happy meal box!

We got a couple kites for the kids to fly one afternoon. Tanner flying his. Maren and Makenna had flown theirs earlier with my help.

We took the boys birthday shopping..both have April birthdays. We spoiled them just a titch!

They're currently into Pokemon cards and have quite a collection of them now.

Easter tradition of coloring the eggs. Everyone got in the act.

The boys took off their new shirts to keep from staining them.

Very nice!

Toddlers love straws...Makenna happy with hers.

New Easter dresses after baths.

The boys in their new birthday duds.

Easter egg hunt out back...old baskets could not be found the night before, so Von and Dave made a last minute dash to get new ones!

Von and me with the grandkids.

Dave, Jenn and family.

All dressed for church..love these kids!

Easter with our boy!
