Easter!

Oh how I loooove Easter! We had a great day! Would have been a great weekend but Sawyer got sick and kept us up 3 nights in a row. Its so sad when a child is sick. Thankfully he is getting better so he can see his little brother and sister when they arrive! Before I start into our Easter weekend I have to write about Monday and Tuesday.

Monday night we had my parents and Brandon's parents over for FHE. It was terrific. I had been having such a horrible day and panicking beyond belief most of the day so to have them over and to have a nice lesson was what I needed. Also, Brandon and I both were given blessings! The rest of the week went pretty well so I am pretty sure that my prayers were heard and answered!

Tuesday afternoon I had my 2 neighbors/friends over to do some Easter egg dying with our kids! It was so much fun! The kids got a kick out of it. My friends little girl's hands were green by the end! It was awesome! We had tasty snacks and then just let the kids play around for a while! Sawyer loved it! It was nice for me to get some adult time too!

The rest of the week I have just been trying to get things as ready as I can. Cleaning house, stocking up on some food, getting the babies bassinet, and I finally finished Taln's blankie! It took me forever to make. I sewed it 4 times and unpicked it 4 times. I finally noticed I had my stick on the wrong setting so it was causing the fabric to bunch. Duh me! Once I got that figured out it was slick!

It turned out pretty well. Its the minky fabric so its so dang soft! Can't wait to use it!Saturday we woke up early to take Sawyer to the Clearfield City Easter Egg hunt. It was ridiculous! We went to the 2 and under spot like we were suppose to and were so excited! Well, Sawyer ended up only getting 3 eggs. 3 eggs!! All the stupid parents went out and hogged all the eggs so it was really lame. And it was pretty dang cold. Luckily, Sawyer got a prize in his egg so he got a ball cause if he wouldn't have I would have thought it a total waste. After the Easter Egg hunt we went to Grandma Elaine's for another egg hunt, one that was actually fun for him and he got more than 3 eggs! We also did some more egg dying! It was fun and Sawyer loved finding the eggs! This morning Sawyer didn't even wake up until 10! I woke up at 9:30 and started getting his eggs and Easter basket ready. He woke up happy as usual and when we told him the Easter bunny had been there he got so excited. He was hysterical to watch find his eggs! He also loved his Easter basket with all the prizes! I have to say that holidays are soooo much better with kids! Its so exciting to see their little faces light up! I love it! It was a good way to spend Sawyer's last few days as the only child!
