Happy Easter!

We had a pretty low key Easter this year. Of course the fact that it was snowing all day long was part of the blame there since we couldn't even head to Nana's house for a bit. We colored eggs in the morning, had dinner later and then did the egg hunt. Emma woke up at 7 and begged and begged to be able to check out her Easter basket. It's fun to watch the kids when they start really getting the concept of things like the Easter bunny and Santa Clause! And even though it was snowing outside she insisted on wearing the tank top and shorts the Easter bunny put in her basket!

Easter egg hunting in our house isn't like other egg hunts. We have to keep it fair so we "hide" the eggs for Emma in almost plain view and we have the kids take turns each looking for an egg. It was driving Eli crazy to see the eggs for Emma! But the first one she found she said "yes!" like she had just scored big time! Too cute!

This is what happens when your 2 yr old doesn't get a nap....she beats up the poor innocent bunny cake that Nana made! This picture really doesn't do it justice but you can at least see the whisker's are a little off and one eyeball is missing! She took a nap after this.....

Thanksgiving

OK so again I am a little late with this post but this week was a bit crazy....Emma has an ear infection in both ears, Kayla got the stomach flu again, lost internet ability again (touch and go wireless connection), had a date with the girls on Thursday and now here you go.

Thanksgiving came and went quickly this year! We went to my moms house and they cooked up a yummy meal! We made green bean casserole and pumpkin pie and took that over there. We hung out with them for a few hours and that was pretty much the extent of it. We were all too tired to travel all over town....we will save that for Christmas! Kayla actually made the pumpkin pies and she did the majority of the casserole. She loves being in the kitchen and I certainly won't discourage it!



Thursday Sue, Jess C and I went to a church here in town to watch one of the funniest comedian's I have ever seen. Her name is Anita Renfroe and I am sure some of you have seen/heard her song Total Momsense. If not, go check it out on her website. She was on Dr. Phil yesterday (which I missed because I had to work late...bummer). I haven't laughed that hard in quite some time. So much so that by the time I got home I was ready for bed!
