Easter

Have a blessed Easter .....

From our little Family .....

Sammy's first Easter spent in Heaven ....

How special is that !

Easter Happenings........

We had a great Easter Weekend! It's always great when John gets to be home for a day off. We look so forward to that......He got right to work taking the kids outside todo a little clean-up - like finally burning the Christmas Tree :)

Yes, I realize my kids are holding dangerous tools .......

and I also realize that my son chose to wear his sisters hat instead of his own.... but hey- I have to choose my battles :)

We had the second annual Easter egg hunt with the cousins :) My Uncle puts a ton of work into making it an Easter Egg scavenger Hunt - which also takes longer ....but the kids have fun !

He's a city boy  - can't you tell :)

Yes, catching a chicken was part of the hunt...... Is that not normal?

Dividing up the loot :)

He Is Risen

Have A Blessed Easter.....

So Crafty....

I have recently discovered the world of PINTEREST. If you have not tryed it yet - Beware -  it is addictive! Make sure you have loads of free time before you log on. Anyway, I pinned this Easter craft, because I liked the glass jar with the eggs and the sticks - not so much the bunny! Being my crafty little self I decided to attempt this as my new Easter centerpiece. So above the lovely Pinterest craft......

and below...............

Yay for Spring

Just last week my front yard looked like this :(

Today it looks like this :)

Thinking it's time to take down the Christmas lights......

Loving Spring!

Yesterday was a busy day for us, so while the girlies worked hard at school, Cooper washed all our plastic Easter eggs to get ready for the big family hunt....

He did a great job :)

Later we headed down to the river because we had heard the ice had broken apart and moved out - 1 month earlier than usual! You see we've been having record breaking temps for our area and the earliest spring ever! It's been up in the 70's and 80's all week! Which caused all the snow to melt EARLY! Yay!!!!

Last night the girls had their last basketball game of the season.
