Really late- Even for me

I struggle with being late. It isn't something I am proud of. Someone wise once told me, "When you are late, it is like saying your time is more important than anyone elses." And I agree. It isn't that I sit, laughing on the couch, thinking I'm going to leave 10 minutes late so everyone waits on me. I don't drive under the speed limit so that I arrive at appointments hurried, frazzled, and with an apology. It just happens. And now that we have added a new addition to the family, it happens alot more. Even if I get up at 4:30 in the morning to make a 9:00 appointment, I will somehow end up being late. And the pictures I am about to post are a great reflection of my tardiness. I wanted to post a few Easter pictures. We celebrated with wonderful friends and family. And for what it is worth, I did make it to the Easter service, with three children, clean, dressed, and on time.

Britani threw a great- Eggstravaganza Party! We made bunny ears, colored eggs, had an egg hunt, and ate the cutest cupcakes. The cupcakes were covered in dyed, green, coconut that looked like grass. She added a few a few jelly beans to the grass for eggs and viola- a cupcake straight from the pages of Martha Stewart! Thank you Caiden for modeling the goodness.

This is as crazy and as fun as it looks!

What says Easter like baby chicks? Wayne surprised everyone, including Lin, with a box of baby chickens during our lunch. We had the chance to spend the Friday before Easter in Whitesboro and enjoyed playing with a few new fuzzy friends. Eli was a little hesitant to hold the little guys, but Beaux picked them up like they were here best friends. She had absolutely no fear, and I think the chicks enjoyed the ride she gave them in the toy shopping cart.

Easter eggs are really fun to find. Especially when they are filled with mini chocolate eggs. Thank you Granny! And I mean thank you from all of us. I might have eaten a few of

those eggs myself.

Sunday dinner with Auntie G, Jason, Lyla, and Gracie Rae are an essential for a happy Easter. Bunny ears are optional.

He is Risen, He is Risen Indeed!
