Easter 2018 in Broken Bow

We planned a last minute quick trip to Broken Bow, OK with the Shirleys.  They are so easy to travel with and so much fun!  They are laid back and Anna loves to celebrate just as much as me.  When I say that we celebrated Easter every Pinterest way possible...I am not exaggerating!  We had so much fun for a few days in Broken Bow!

The kids got in the hot tub each morning for a long time.  

So much fun!

Warming up by the fire after a hot tub dunk

 We made Easter Egg shaped cookies and brought icings and sprinkles for decorating.

Watermelon cookie=legit!

We loved the game room at the cabin!  They had this old school Mrs. Pacman and Dig Dug game that I killed at!  The game room also had a basketball game that the boys loved.

 One good thing about the trip is there was no agenda.   We just did whatever we felt like doing and made no plans.  It was sort of a fly-by-the-seat of our pants trip.

We played a little bit of putt-putt.

Ice cream for everyone after all that hard work on the course.

We got back to the cabin and made the most adorable Peeps s'mores!  How cute are these?

The kids loved them!

The sugar on the outside of the peep sort of caramelized and it tasted like creme brulee!

We went to Beavers Bend state park for the train ride

After the train ride, we went to the lake to fish.  We were killing time before the public Egg Hunt.  

We walked up to the egg hunt and it was ummmmmm not what we were looking for so we grabbed snow cones and waded in the water!

We headed back to the cabin and dyed our eggs.  I feel like we had eggs for days!

While I got the egg dyeing done, Anna was setting up the Resurrection Cookies!  

The kids each got to help.  Each one got pecans to "beat" since Jesus was beaten.

They each tasted vinegar, oil, salt and symbolized something in the Easter Story.  The best part is the sweet part...how much He Loves us!

Easter morning!

Not sure what Bennett is doing, but they were excited about their baskets!

 Anna and I had so much fun making our Easter brunch!  Like I said, we went nuts!

Peep Parfaits!

What a fun weekend celebrating Easter!
