Happy Easter!! I see upset stomachs in our future… don’t you?!

What really matters on Valentine’s Day are the cards from my family of course! Dude did a good job and got me a very nice necklace… okay, I got myself a nice necklace and put his name on it. Whatever right?! Happily I don’t need him to prove anything and it is a good excuse to justify a new $15 purchase. Gotta love those Hallmark holidays!

Yesterday the kids got to dress up for Halloween parties at school. Dude was a great Dad and drove them to school in his costume! What a guy… Then last night we had a spooky Halloween party for the girls and today I feel like Halloween should be done, but of course it isn’t. There is still trick-or-treating on Saturday. Oh joy, lots of tempting candy to thwart my exercise efforts… sigh… Oh well, time to boost up my self-control I guess!

Got the tree up! Here is another ornament that I made when I was a kid…

We had an awesome day of thanks! I hope that you did too…

The farm was great. It was my first, and probably last, year doing the corn maze. We have decided the kids can manage it just fine alone and next year we are going to sit out in front with coffee in hand while the kids do all the running!

Just a few photos from our day… click the pics for a better view. It was very nice holiday, my youngest paced herself nicely which certainly made it more fun, she only asked “When are we lighting the fireworks?” about 20 times which was pretty good for a six year old. Remember this project? Well it sort of went up in flames as part of our festivites… That would be DH running amok with matches.
