Easter

 

It was a gorgeous day! We woke to find the Easter bunny had indeed visited our home!  The girls enjoyed their gifts. I made Amish Puzzle Balls for them out of this book:

We had a quick breakfast, and started out for Grandma and Grandpa's.  We had a lovely holiday with everyone there. We decorated eggs, played games, watched an Easter show, decorated the windows, exchanged gifts and had a fabulous dinner! The girls played on their swing set (which they haven't done in quite a while!) They brought their photo albums over so they could print out some pictures with Grandpa. We all haven't been able to see each other for quite some time, so it was a wonderful treat being able to see everyone!! It really made the girls' Easter special!! Also, when we left that night, they sent us home with a whole TOTE full of homemade food that they had been preparing for our freezer the day before!!!! Homemade muffins (Double Chocolate Chip, and Blueberry, the girls' faves!) and 2 lasagnas (my fave!) plus leftovers from Easter dinner and all the homemade and store bought candy we got for Easter!  They seriously save us like this and we don't know what we would do with out them!!!! We are so blessed! <3

 

Grandma M. wasn't able to join us on Sunday, so she took us out for lunch on Tuesday.  We went to Friendly's, and the girls and I had never been there before so that was fun.  We all really loved eveything we ordered, and will definately be going there in the future! We went back to Grandma M.'s house and visited there for a bit, played some Wii, catch, and the girls got to feed and pet her guinea pigs. We love visiting with her! She is one of the nicest people I know, and we are all so very lucky to have her in our lives!

 

I hope everyone else had as wonderful of a holiday as we did. Much love to you all!
