Easter at the Lake

Most of the Rowedder side of the family was able to get together over the weekend. Our main purpose for gathering was to honor the life of Nate's Grandma that passed away. So Friday night we had a big family supper and then had time to remember and share stories of her life. It was a neat thing to be a part of, she was a very special person!

Papa (Nate's Grandpa) catching up on a little sleep!

There was a line set up off the end of the dock and there was actually a fish caught. Judson had a good time watching all the action, but did not want to get anywhere close to that fish! :)

It took awhile to real it in, and to get the net down in the water to help pull it up. It was a pretty big fish and sure put up a fight for being caught!

The four fishermen, Carol (Nate's mom was out there too, but busy looking for a scale when picture time came. A scale we could not find, so we are unsure how big the fish really was.)


Nate and I had gotten Judson some things for his Easter basket, but they never actually made it into the basket because things were need as distractions and entertainment while at the Lake. These glasses were one of his new items though. He always wants glasses to wear if I have mine on. So now he will have a pair, well for a day or two until he breaks them! :)

Nate's mom and sister were very sweet to want to do an egg hunt with Judson so they got plastic eggs and filled them with marshmallows, animal cookies and peanut butter cups! Judson loved going out and finding all the eggs, especially with no competition! :) His little basket was so full!! He was just loving it.

Once he found all the eggs we told him there were treats inside and oh man did he get excited then!!

He took his basket inside to have Grandma Carol and Grandpa Dan open the eggs for him!
