Easter Egg Hunt and a baby blanket

How was everyone's Easter Sunday? Ours was pretty good. The Saturday before our post held an Easter egg hunt for all the kids on post and separated them by age group. Luckily our neighbors went with us and since our kids are about the same age, we took the older ones and they took the 2 younger ones. Here they are afterward showing off all the eggs they collected. They had a blast and then spent all evening playing out in the front yard till 930 pm! Time sure flies when your having fun as DH and I were socializing with the neighbors and completely didn't notice the time! We all had late suppers then, LOL. Easter Sunday we ate early and the kids played some more with the neighborhood kids and we spent the day relaxing and enjoying the wonderful weather. I got my two fair and square exchanges completed also along with a little more of the baby blanket done up, though I do still have a ways to go with it. So i am off to stitch up one more thing that I need to mail out on payday this Wednesday. I'll show it to you when it arrives where its suppose to. ^_^

Easter Festivities

So today we decided it was time for Easter preparations. The girls got to dye 5 eggs each as I didn't want all my eggs hard boiled. They had a blast!


And then we made Easter cookies! Okay I cheated this year I bought those pre made packaged ones that Pillsbury sells in the fridge section. So I popped them into the oven this afternoon and here they are 4 dozen cookies later. Kiley's expression about not getting another cookie.And Batista the entire time was sleeping under our dining room table. Yes I know my floors are scratched. They need to be waxed and buffed badly. Sadly it won't happen until the movers come and take all our stuff from our house next year.

Did you notice I changed my blog? What do you think? Better? So if I don't post before Sunday. Everyone have a Happy Easter!

4.5 lbs lost! Woohoo!!

I stitched up 1 signature square last night and started the second one for my 2 Fair and Square Exchanges. Then I am off to stitch the main squares and a Bday gift for a certain someone...

Erynne has a new freebie posted today. Its a pretty wintery scene. She is getting so much snow there. Freebie is here


EDITED TO ADD:

This afternoon we went to the library to see the Easter Bunny, color plastic eggs, and get read some Easter stories. We had a blast except Kiley was freaked out by the size of the Easter bunny even when he took his head off and showed her he was only a man in a suit she refused to take a pic with him. Anyway here is our afternoon there though I forgot to snap pics of storytime. And you see the red and yellow puppet theater in the back? Apparently we won enough awards for the library they got to add that. ^_^
And when we arrived home the girls had to be cute and pose with Bobby and Michael. ^_^ ahem, please excuse the mess behind them. We uh uh were having a lot of fun today and haven't cleaned up. Um yea, that's our story and we're sticking to it!

Destiny decided to start her own blog so I hope you all will pop on over and send her some encouragement. I am helping her design her blog which we will work on more tomorrow so its called Princesses and Mermaids, pls drop on by.

Happy Easter!

Okay I have been stitching but they are for some exchanges I am in so I can't post pictures yet until they are recieved. One goes out tomorrow and the other one not for another two weeks. So now I can concentrate on stitching on something I can show you so stay tuned!

Happy easter everyone! Hope you all had wonderful days. Here are some pictures of how our day went. Basically they searched and opened their Easter baskets and then we dyed eggs (anyone ever had an egg float before you cook it when you put it in water? I had two do that to me but they sank when cooked) then we went to the bowling alley and had some easter bowling since the kids got to play for 75 cents per game, and then we came back and spent the afternoon with the kids and great grandparents playing with their new Tweety bird balls in the back yard.
