Easter Egg Hunt!



Easter turned out to be a very nice day (of course until it suddenly started to rain)... Welcome to Spring!

Daddy hid some plastic eggs around the yard and initially the twins were like, "Um, what's the point of this?!?" Soon enough they got the hang of it and were running around the yard looking for eggs... so we had to keep stealing eggs from their bags and re-hiding them. They didn't seem to notice.

















We also picked up some handheld bubble blowers as the whole blowing-the-bubble-wand attempts usually result with a chin full of drool or the wands being eaten. I'll have to work on that this summer!

Memere & Pepere come to town!



"Memere Pepere, where are you? Come play!"

This is the chant in the house these days, even though my parents already went back home. I can even con the kids into eating their food by saying that Memere and Pepere are watching or want them to eat. Hey, you do what ya gotta do, right?

Now that Dad is fully retired, they'll hopefully be able to visit more. Dad and Michael even found the time to build me a raised-bed garden! So come back soon for the many projects I have around the yard...whoops, I mean come back so you can play with Colin and Ava since they already miss you!
