Happy Easter!
Our Grandma Jen is here, and my sanity has returned to nearly normal levels.
Turns out some Pack Rats are here too... but that is another post for another day.
We have been enjoying Easter and the single digit count down until Dad comes home (5 more days!!)
Humpty Dumpty Egg- "Have a nice ride in the BLOOD MACHINE!" (red dye, of course)
"Bood Massseeeene, blood massseeeeen!" Sung in chorus for the next few minutes
Thank You to my dear friend L for the bunny masks and accompanying care package! The Lord blesses us with dear people in our lives, and I am lucky enough to still count this delight of a girl as my friend, more than 10 years later. The masks and mustaches were a HIT.
So were the chocolate covered peanut butter pretzels, but my kids don't know that part.
This morning we had our egg hunt and basket joy. (We have the Easter Bunny come on Saturday so that Sunday can be about Jesus and his life, death, and resurrection)

This is the egg hiding in the time-out corner. Pencil thought it was hilarious to have a 'time-out egg'.
Of course we watched the grow-capsules while we ate a breakfast of chocolate and jelly beans and eggs.
Sock noticed that his blood machine egg was red on the inside! Like Chicken Pox.
(don't ask how he knows about those. We haven't had any at our house!)
We are thankful for Easter, and candy and eggs (so many eggs...) and we hope your weekend was just as great as ours.
After reading this post, Tyler and I think you should create a comic strip of your children. It would be a hit! Glad to hear you have had a little bit more sanity these last few days. I have been thinking about and praying for you a lot. You are AMAZING!!
