This is going to be a rather long post....but I needed to get the memories posted! Amidst an emergency room visit and sickness, our Spring Break Vacation was actually a time of relaxation and peace. I really enjoyed the time of leisure. I mostly stayed away from the computer. We watched movies, we played the Wii, we did puzzles, I made meals for the family, and we just spent quality time together. It's just nice to get away from normal life from time to time. It all kind of started on Wednesday, April 4th when the kids and I used different flavors of Kool-Aid to dye our Easter Eggs. It was so fun and I can't wait to try new flavors out next year. Before we dyed the eggs, the kids used crayons to draw designs on the eggs. We found out that the blue Kool-aid turned out the best! The ... [Read More]

Recipe Thursday | Resurrection Rolls
This week's Recipe | Resurrection Rolls by DeDe Smith This was the HIGHLIGHT of our Easter festivities this year. My kids LOVED IT! It was the perfect object lesson and it was just wonderful to share the Easter story with them. We did them before our church service and it was just a great way to start the day! We were all amazed how well this works and it will be an annual tradition for my family from here on out! Perfect Easter Idea!

Life 365 | Week 14
Monday, March 29, 2010 The end of March/beginning of April totally snuck up fast on me. I suddenly realized how much I needed to get done this week! To begin with - we needed to get Beth's invitations done - and so we got the order sent in! (The above photo is what we received on Friday of this week)! I think they turned out very cute! Tuesday, March 30, 2010 I just love it when the kids are happy and playful. They were in FLYING mode today and it was fun to see them have a good time together. I worked a lot today on a new kit and getting my Digitals store assistant jobs handled. Wednesday, March 31, 2010 Joey worked from home today and was there to greet our cute Bethie Bunny when she got home from school. So cute! Being that Joey was home and I didn't have a crop tonight - we ... [Read More]
Project 365 | Week 15
Monday, April 6, 2009 Beth is such a character! Her sense of humor mirrors her daddy's and Joey gets such a kick out of that. She says the funniest things all the time and I need to capture more of these little fun moments. Joey has never really eaten breakfast - even as a child. As he's gotten older, it has actually gotten to the point where if he eats too soon after waking up, it makes him nauseous. This morning, Beth was sitting at the kid's table eating a bowl of cereal, while Joey sat nearby working on his laptop. "Daddy," Beth said, "you forgot to eat some breakfast." "I didn't forget, pumpernickel. Daddy just doesn't eat breakfast." "Why not?" she asked. "Well, I've just never been very good at it." "It's EASY, Daddy - you just do like this!" Beth explained, moving the ... [Read More]
