I must have been sick..

.. Really sick!

I woke up on Thursday with the stomach flu!! It was no fun. This is how I know I was on my deathbed!



Whitley looked like this, and I didn't even care.

Today, now that I am better, she has ponytails so tight her eyes look a little squinted. Thank goodness it was only a 24 hour bug!

GoodBye Window- Hello Doors!

We have wanted a door into our backyard without having to go into the garage since we bought our house. Well we finally got it done!! It also is a way to keep my little monkeys in check. I will either know that they are in the backyard or in the house. No more going through the garage, getting into whatever the heck Ry keeps in the garage. It will be a lot safer and easier too. So we lost a window but gained a door.

The finished product



It makes my kitchen look so bright and the blinds are inside the window, I think this is neat and have been playing with them. When the guy showed me how them worked I was acting all cool and as soon as he drove away I was running to play with them. Yeah I know it doesn't take much to keep me entertained.

Easter Fun!

Wow Easter has come and gone , We had lots of fun, This is the Whitleys easter outfit, complete with bunny ear bows. It was definatly to cold to wear capris, but you can only wear Easter overalls at Easter so she looked a little strange with capris, socks and shoes and a coat, But she did look festive.

We went on 3 easter egg hunts, 1 in the downpour, but I guess this is what you do for your kids. I don't have pictures because I was holding a umbrella and a 2 year old. This was at Grandma Molly's house the kids had fun finding the eggs. Karden was trying to get the easter eggs from Grandma Mollys fort.
The Easter bunny brought new bikes, toys and too much candy. We even had the bellyaches to prove it.
Of course we got new easter clothes, Everyone said Whitley looked like a ice cream sundae, and she even stayed in Nursery YEAH!!!
Karden looked pretty darn handsome too, but I'm a bit partial :)
Now on to our next adventure.. Easter with the Goshen Clan Next weekend!! I can't wait.

So Tired!!

This is what happens when Grandpa and Grandma take the kids out camping with them while Ry and I are at work.
This was about 5 minutes after we left the campsite. I don't know if you can see but Karden does have his seatbelt on. I didn't even know his armrest went up on his booster seat.
Grandma and Grandpa can take them camping anytime! They slept all night and didn't want to get up in the morning. Thanks Mom and Dad!!

Here Comes Peter Cottontail..

... Hippity, Hoppity,Easter must be on its way.. because we had our annual easter egg dying night. It seems to be more fun every year because the kids get more excited about it as they get older! But Luckily some things never change, Someone always tries to drink the egg dye, thinking it is punch.. This year Whitley was the culprit.
The older boys always get bored and draw not so appropriate pictures on the eggs.( Do boys every grow up?) If you can't tell what is written on the egg it says "crap" along with illustrations, complete with steam.
There is always a few spills
and there always has to be a "Megan and Paul, Best Friends Forever" egg. Yeah I know he looks super excited to be my best friend. He just doesn't know what he is missing. Kardens favorite egg was of course the egg that he turned into a star wars ship. Whitley has a short attention span and after 2 eggs and a drink of the vinegar dye she moved on to something more tasty : Gummy Worms!!

There are lots things I love and dying easter eggs is on my list. It was a great night with lots of laughs and what could be better than knowing tomorrow we will be eating egg salad for lunch!! YUM! YUM!
