Needless to say the girls liked thier Easter Baskets! :D And Sam obviously LOVED his new Cars books- this is how I found him when I woke up! I know I got way too much candy...but Costco is evil that way! Anyway...is a 6lb bag of little chocolate bars really too much? My tummy says NO! But my backside says YES...duh! ;) Even though we had to bring all the Easter treats and stuff for sleeping over, I tried to pack lightly and I think I did a good job...if I do say so myself.
Lucky for us Josh's parents own a really nice little (extra) park model home that is empty (currently for sale) and so we had our very own 'tiny house', or as the kids called it a 'borrowed house'...LOL! It was nice to have our own space to spread out and put all our junk in empty closets...so Sam took advantage of all that empty cupboard space to play 'IN' the kitchen cupboards!!
The girls LOVE to play dominos with Grandma, such fun. Sam just likes to steal the dominos that the girls are playing with while they are in the middle of a game, little brothers are SO helpful!
We went to a VERY fancy restaurant, you may have heard of it...Denny's? Yeah, we are so high-brow! ;) Hey, if you want yummy pancakes, bacon, sausage, and scrambled eggs for lunch where else should you go? Izzy had fun eating almost as much as the other kids did...and I mean she ate almost the same amount of food, not just the same enjoyment! HA!! Then the little Biscuit LOVED having Amanda put my sunglasses on her, super cute huh?! :D
This is Nali, Sam absolutely L-O-V-E-S this dog! She is an absolute sweetie, Nali and the kids really have fun together whenever we visit. The only problem is that Sam has inherited some of my allergies...so I carry the brilliant invention of Benadryl Quick Dissolve Strips- thus preventing the inevitable hives and puffy eyes after Sam rolls around on the floor with Nali! Thank You Benadryl!!!!!!!
So, our Easter weekend was wonderful, mostly because it was so really great to see family! ;)
I hope The Bunny treated your kids well too, and that they were able to come down from the sugar-rush long enough to appreciate the REAL reason for this wonderful holiday!!
(hummm...I think I will go snag myself a mini-chocolate bar!)
In a related event later that same day, one of the other kids left the frig open (Mary Ann, I am about to follow your lead and padlock the dang thing!!!) and this is what I found! Who need A/C when we can just leave the frig open? 
Another problem is that due to my lack of one space for my scrappin'/craft stuff it is squirrelled away all over the house! So when I am working on a layout I am running all over grabbing stuff from everywhere! Which ends up strewn all over the table and a pain too, so I bought this little rubber tote for like $4, so all the big stuff can be easily loaded into it, used, moved around, and then toted back to be put away. I know, genius right?!!
I did NOT clean the kitchen floor like I should have...as you can see this is just one tile, and it needed to be done, but I was just NOT up to it. (Don't worry I did it the next day)
Thanks to the wonderful people at L&L Hawaiian Barbecue and thier really large portions I didn't have to make lunch- leftovers from yesterday of that BBQ chicken ....YUMMMMMMMY! I know it is too greasy, but so freakin' delicious! If you ever get the chance to go- DO IT!!
I LOVE my computer, so many of my friends live in it! :D Tee Hee! :D
Since I STILL didn't want to do the kitchen floor, I decided to finish my current scrapbook layout...I was planning on cropping these pics nice and tight to show them better, but hey, I am feeling pretty good that this post is even happening! :D
