Easter Fun

Okay, I know most people have posted for Easter and gone onto other things. After all it was 93 degrees here on Monday, so summer must be here by now, but alas, no it is only in the 60's today. My only excuse is that we decided to remodel our kitchen before summer was here, so of course we start doing it over Easter. I have been washing dishes in the tub for almost a month, so that has been taking all the paitence that I have. I do not recommend this, if I wasn't a hunchback before I sure as heck am now. When the project is all done, I'll show you what it looks like.

So below is the fun that we had for Easter this year. We went down to my Mother's and spent time with them and my Aunt Tricia's family. Fun was had by all!!!!

Luke waiting to have an Easter Egg Hunt

The traditional Family Picture before the hunt. Every year since I was young this "family line up" picture has been taken, boy to see them all together!!!

Steven waiting VERY patiently.

LET THE HUNT BEGIN!!!!!!

The on lookers and the helpers

Now after you have your hunt, of course you need to eat your candy

Now when we go to Mom's and Gunnar's we take everyone kids, cats, AND hampster. Here are the furry one, very happy at Grammies.

My Little Angels

Okay, yes, 85% of the time my little ones are my "Little Angels" (5% of the time I want to sell them to the circus, and the other 10% is the in between - you know cute enough to keep, but a lock on the door to keep them out would be great).

Since swim season has ended we have kept busy with colds, school, church, etc. Here are some pictures from the Swim Banquet: Katy all grown up, in two weeks she will be 12, where did the time go.

Katy and the "Best Guy" in her life.

In a paper for school Becca wrote that "Everyone likes me, because they always call me cute." After I read that, I told Karl to clean the shot gun - he will need it when she get older!
These are all the medals and trophies that Becca won at Swim Championships. Her medals are for her age group (6 and under) and she has a first, second, and fifth.

As you can see, Steven is the "lost" Blue's Brother!!!!!!

Just so you don't think I have the other kids chained to the wall here are my other little darlings:

Drew in "his" basement - I keep telling him when he pays rent it is his till then he is just an invited guest.
Mark - this is one of my favorite pictures taken of him.

And last, but not least. Luke, my smilin little boy who would live at Wal-Mart if I let him. We get asked at least 50 times a day if he can go to Wal-Mart. I now have him convinced that Wal-Mart is only open 1 day every two weeks.
