Easter 2011

Since I was put on Bed rest at the beginning of the week our Easter Weekend was pretty low key but the kids had a great time. We got the kids a special surprise on Wednesday for Easter ( see below) and on Saturday a friend hosted an Easter egg hunt that was perfect for us, not too much work but the kids got to find eggs and sugar up. We had BBQ chicken with Potatoes and Deviled eggs for dinner and it was nice to not have everything too focused on the things that don't matter as much but we spent a ton of good time together and had a nice relaxing day. Hope you all had a splendid day and had the opportunity to think about our loving savior who died for us and was risen again on this day! Happy Easter everyone and remember that we know that Our Redeemer lives and loves us!





The Easter Bunny came a little early to our house this year, he brought the kids a couple new pets that we have been debating on getting for a while, Easter seemed like as good a time as any. We looked at Frogs, Turtles, Chameleons, Birds, Rats, Hamsters, Gerbils, Guinea Pigs and Birds. After much consideration and a bit of research we decided on these two little ladies!
Here is Colin holding Rosita she is black and white and what they call a "silky" Guinea Pig, she has a little bit of a rat look but she is pretty sweet and purrs alot. This is Gabriella she is super furry and Brown and Black she is a little more skiddish but is warming up to the family. They have been a lot of fun so far even though we can't play with them as much as maybe we would like to since they are still young and working on getting used to their new home. The kids adore them and just want to watch them all the time. This is Taylor holding Rosita. Morgyn doesn't get to hold them too much and defiantly can't take pictures while she is holding them but maybe soon enough we will get one of her with her new "babies" as she refers to them.
