Our Weekend

We went to Charleston, WV this weekend. The group included, me, Sean, Sara, Kayla, Diane, Bimbo, Tessa, Chelsea & Haley (Chelsea's friend). Joshua spent the night with Grandma & Grandpa Yost. The first stop was Walmart, nothing like driving an hour just to go to a Walmart. Never take teenage girls to Walmart with a camera.

Tessa & Haley

Chelsea

The girls went to the movies and saw "Horton hears a who" but before they made it back to the movie, they had a photo shoot.

Kayla

Our next stop was TGIFriday's, it was yummy!! I'm not sure who this guy is but the girls took a picture of him, you can see the resturant in the background & of course we had to take pictures while we were waiting on our food. I found out who the guy is, it's the front of the menu!! LOL

Tessa, Kayla & Sara

The next stop on our fun filled weekend was back to the hotel for a night of swimming, we told them they could swim till 10pm when the pool closed, instead after less than an hour they were ready to back to the room.

Haley, Kayla, Chelsea, Sara & Tessa

We ordered pizza later Friday night, and ate it around 10pm, way to late for a pizza, but the girls were hungry again.




Saturday we stopped by the Mall on our way home. All in all it was a great weekend, everyone had a good time.

Sara

April emailed me a cute picture of Sara from Heather's birthday party back in Jan. Her hair is long in that one & then I want to share one of her taken yesterday with her hair short. Personally I like her hair shorter.

Sara has been wanting me to come up and have lunch with her, so yesterday I stayed after Josh's Easter party and ate lunch with her & Kayla. She was happy, you can tell by the smile.

Easter Party

Today was Josh's Easter Party at school. They all got to wear their "Easter Outfits", only we decided to just dress in dress pants & sweater and save our Easter Outfit for Sunday. They had a Tea Party, which was biscuits & cookies with juice for the snack & then they got to hunt Easter Eggs. Josh had a really good time, he has been playing with 3 eggs all afternoon, they are shaped like R2D2 from StarWars which he LOVES.

The loot ..

All of the kids opened their eggs & got the candy out first thing

Look real close and you can see the R2D2 look alike egg on the table

Scrapbooking Day

Today I spent the whole day printing 8x8 scrapbook pages. I had made them months ago but hadn't gotten around to printing them. I am loving digital scrapbooking, it's so easy & clean up is .. well there is none. Here are a few samples of my work.

Blog Update

I was told it was time to update my blog .. this one is for you Nat.

Our house is still on the market, it's been 32 days and we have only had one person come and look at it. We continue to pray every day that the right family will come along. We are excited and sad about moving, it's really exciting now that we know where we will be going and it isn't that far from where we are now.

Here are some pic's of the house we are in now, it's been our HOME for almost 12 years, we really do love it.
