Easter weekend

I have to admit - these blog posts with multiple pictures kick my butt. I can never get the images to line up correctly, but I am going to give it a try.

Friday I picked up our new camera. Thank you to all who recommended a Cannon, I really like it and found it easy to operate/edit without reading the directions, which I never do.


Saturday morning we had playdate/birthday party. Brady is the last of our crew to turn 2. We finally got all 4 of them healthy, together, in a good mood all at once. They have all been friends since I met their Mommies at a nursing group when Annabelle was born.









Then we went home, lunched, napped and got up to color eggs. Annabelle loved this and so did I until she stuck both hands in the egg dye. It took a long time to unblue her hands, in fact she still has a tinge on her nails.









Easter morning Annabelle had to hunt for the basket that the Easter Bunny left, it was filled with fun stuff - sidewalk chalk, roll on bath soap, a beach ball and a purse. He even left some vanilla cookies.











Then off to church. On the way I am coaching Annabelle on church etiquette, no running around, no talking while pastor is talking etc. She says "and Easter bunny will be there". I explain that no, he will not

During the sermon Pastor mentions Peter the Apostle and Annabelle says loud enough for everyone to hear "Peter Cottontail - I knew he would be here!" Yes, this is my daughter.



Get home, Twins arrive, Josh gives Nate a bottle while Grace & I get dinner ready. Josh makes a confession, he does not believe in Tupperware, in fact he often throws it away. I am considering one of those home DNA tests to see if the kid is really related to me.











Annabelle runs around in her Easter dress & bonnet, sans shoes & sweater.












Nate does his best imitation of Fat Bastard in Austin Powers - *Don't you think I'm sexy?*


All in all, a great but busy weekend.
