Spring into Easter



It is now Spring and this year I finally have gardens. I have been wanting to grow a vegetable garden for years and to have some color in my front yard. Me and the boys went to the nursery and they helped me pick out some flowers. Alex and I couldn't agree on the colors so we ended up with one of each. That made him very happy. With a little help from the scouts we got the flowers planted in the front. I love them, it is amazing what the beauty of gods creations can do to you, it makes me happy to see them and to help them grow. I have also started a small raised vegetable garden. My mom and boys helped me plant the seeds a few weeks ago and now I can see "the fruits of my labors" I am so excited.





We had a great Easter this year. Way to much candy but full of Easter egg hunts and egg coloring and Easter morning fun. We went to the city egg hunt the boys had fun but it was way crowded. After that we had Easter party with some close friends with egg hunts cookies and egg coloring. The Easter bunny likes to leave a trail of jelly beans around the house and this year he left a trail to the Easter baskets the boys were so excited.




The boys were very excited to show off when the Easter bunny brought and the gifts from their grandparents. I have added the Easter morning videos if you want to watch.

St. Patrick's Day and sunny days


This is our St. Patrick's day breakfast. It might be hard to see in the picture but the Leprechauns visited in the night and changed our milk and yogurt green. The boys were so excited. To add I made green pancakes and for lunch we had green Macaroni and cheese.

You can't beat the fun of a box.
The weather was so warn this last week the boys wanted to eat dinner outside. They ate good and were so nice to each other I think they really needed the sunshine.
