Easter Gathering at the Lake


My Grandsons Mattie &  Kaden checking out the pier


Mattie had his eye on the paddle boat resting on the bank.


Kaden had his bucket ready for the hunt to begin.


Linda's daughter Beth & her boyfriend Nick cooling it on the deck.


Grandsons Kaden & Mattie running & playing on the huge deck.


Beth and Nick needing some teenage along time.




Linda's niece Ashley, my daughter Rachel holding Mattie with Kaden on the right.


One of Linda's brother Junior's flowers.


My grandsons loving on a Boston Terrier named Red, they took turns chasing and being chased by Red and had a great time.


Can't believe I ate the whole thing. Couple of burgers with cheese, Linda's baked beans and my cole slaw. 


Mattie working on the icing of a cupcake Linda made while Rachel enjoys herself.


Mattie trying another strategy using his mouth only to attack that cupcake.


Chocolate Eclair cake that was a big hit with everyone.


Let the egg hunt begin








Very special fruit pizza that Linda made and was refreshing.

  2. That blue lake is just beautiful, Odie. It looks like the gang had a great time roaming the water's edge, resting on the pier, hunting for eggs and and enjoying lots of tasty food. I never saw or heard of a fruit pizza but it looks delicious. Happy Easter to all of you, good buddy!

  11. Looks like you had a wonderful Easter with your family! Mattie reminds me of my boy Kyle when he was that age. I think it's the blond hair and the attach of the cup cake without hands. Yep. That's it. :) Have a great day my friend.

  12. Hey Odie,
    What kind of camera do you use Odie, your pictures are wonderful. I just bought a new camera I think I will love. Its a Nkon Coolpix P510. Has a bunch of bells and whistles I can't wait to learn how to use. I will be doing a blog post on it sometime soon.
    Tell Linda her fruit pizza is beautiful!
    Have a great day!
