Easter

We colored our eggs

with Linds at her house.

It's always fun to see the

different color combinations

everyone comes up with.

Linds made a Bronco egg,

and the kids would do one color

on top of another

to see what the final result would be.

On Easter morning,

the hunt was on.

They were surprised

the Easter bunny found us

there in our hotel room.

Found them all! Thank goodness,

I would feel bad for the maid who

came across an egg a few days (or weeks) later!

When we got home, the kids found

that the Easter bunny had also

brought candy to our house.

So, they got visited twice this year!

Melt in your mouth

So, while we were staying at the hotel,

they had the best peanut-butter cookies there.

They weren't the traditional criss-cross kind,

but had peanut butter chips in them.

Well, today, I was really craving some more of those

delicious morsels.

I found out there wasn't a recipe to be had

for those ones,

so I went on a quest to find

another.

I think I found it - the perfect recipe.

These are amazing.

Go here to try them yourself.

Spring Break - Part 3

We kidnapped Linds

for lunch one day

and caught a flick.

The kids were dying

to see

Horton Hears a Who.

It's a great movie,

destined to become another classic.

We loved it!

Spring Break - Part 2

Of course, one of the week's highlights,

and the first thing we did when we got there,

was to swim in the hotel pool.

It's a good thing we were the

only ones there.

I think we scared everyone else away.

But it was fun for us, anyway,
and very relaxing!

(London pulled this pose just
as we were leaving,
she's so funny.)

Spring Break - Part 1

The kids and I

wanted a little getaway for the week

of spring break.

So, we took a little trip

down to Ft. Collins.

It was great to have a nice place to go.

And a sister/aunt who hooked us up

with some deLuXe accommodations!

We were spoiled!

It made a nice

"home away from home"

for the week.

Thanks, Linds!

All figured out

Since it was a snowy, rainy day today,

London wanted to make a house

with the couch pillows.

However, she was having trouble

getting them to

stand up by themselves.

I went in to see what was the matter.

She said,"It doesn't work!

It needs new batteries."

I said, "It needs new batteries?"

She said, "Yeah, it needs new batteries to stay.

It doesn't stay!"

So we worked on it,

and got the pillows to stay.

Thank goodness!

(I think I need new batteries!)

2 peas in a pod

London took Jake for a walk today.

I guess it wore them both out.

This is what I found when I

came downstairs today.

I think she's got a new best friend.
