Happy Easter

I hope everyone had a lovely Easter Sunday.

We had a rather unusual Easter. I guess not really unusual, maybe just not what I expected or wanted.

Since Dada was sick, I knew that she wouldn't be going to church with us, which of course means that Daddy stayed home with her. And since I was cooking breakfast at church and was planning on being at church before 6, I didn't really want to wake Brother up at 5 to get him ready for church.

So we made a quick call to G & G S, and they readily accepted my request to have Brother spend the night at their house and go to church with them.

So that's what we did.

I was sad to not see my family in there new Easter outfits. I wasn't even there to see Dada find her Easter basket ( which in our house, it's a tradition to hide the Easter baskets.)

No Easter pictures. :(

It definitely wasn't the same to not have my family in church with me. I was a little lonely sitting by myself, not being able to cuddle up with Hunny.

It was just not the same.

Thankfully, by the time I got home, Dada was feeling better, and we were all able to go to G & G S's, house for lunch.

For Easter, instead of getting the kids a bunch of candy, they don't need, or a bunch of useless crap that they will forget about in an hour, we got them a tent. I just thought it would be nice to have around.

Well the kids were ecstatic about it. Daddy had to almost immediately put it up and the just HAD to sleep in it last night.



Since it was raining out, Hunny set it right up in the living room.

Which they thought was pretty cool.

(Here you can see Brother's missing tooth)



This is a totally staged picture. They wanted me to take a picture of them "sleeping," which was much easier said then done.



I think it was 10:30 and I was still hearing them messing around.

And yes, Daddy was right in the middle of it. He grabbed his pillow and cuddled up right next to them.

It was a little comical to hear him try and settle the kids down.

I wasn't feeling well last night ( think I was just worn out from getting up so early that day! ) so I slept wonderfully in my nice, big, cozy bed!! That is until Hunny crawled in sometime in the night!! ;)

Breakfast did go well at church. I really enjoy cooking. I was nervous to try and cook so much food on just 3 electric griddles and 2 ovens. But it really worked out well. Beth, Anne and Shelby really helped me out during the morning as well. I am grateful for their help.
