I was on call the night before Easter so when my shift was over I stopped by Krispy Kreme and picked up a treat for my sweet family. They love donuts!! When I got home it was still quite early in the morning so I hurried and hid the Easter eggs and assembled the kids baskets of goodies and didn't have to wait long for them to start waking up. They were so excited! I was worried that on our new budget they would be a little disappointed with their baskets this year because it wasn't nearly what they are used to. I was so pleasantly surprised and proud of them as well. No one even began to mention that their basket was a little "bare". They were all smiles and so grateful for what they had received. We really do have great kids!! I couldn't ask for any better. After looking through their baskets, we all went outside and had our egg hunt. I always love watching them run around excitedly looking for the eggs. I think I'll still make them do it even when they're all in their 20's I love it so much. Hopefully they'll cooperate!!
Here is a little page we started to help keep in touch with our out of state friends and family. With everyone's busy schedules it is hard to stay up on what's going on in each other's lives. Please check back often as we will try and update info and pictures frequently. It seems like the kids change evertime you blink! They grow up way too fast!!!
From sweet to sassy in milliseconds. Lately we see way to much of this lovely face. Her sweetness makes up for it though! Good thing.
Eliza at Disney Princess' on Ice
She was holding up her dress as she walked, just like a princess and instructing her friend Lucy to do the same. People in their cars were pointing and smiling as she passed by. It was pretty darn cute!
Blake and I were so fortunate to be able to go on a 15 day trip to Italy in September 2007. We had such a great time even with as much as we missed the kids. Poor Blake cried the first time we called home, okay okay it was really me! I'll admit it, I cried like a baby. I missed them terribly but they gave us the best homecoming ever!! While in Italy we went to Sicily, Naples, Pompeii, Rome, Cinque Terra, Venice and Milan. We even had a one day layover in Paris!
