easter

April 5, 2010

sela was hiding around our home for a good portion of the morning…

she was terrified.

worried.

she said the easter bunny is ‘sdary’ and she did not want to cross paths with it…

should it actually hop right through our house.

however, sela was totally fine collecting the pink goodies the bunny left!

the easter bunny color-coordinated the kids’ treats again this year…it sure makes the egg hunt ‘fair’ for everyone…keeping all kiddos happy. 😉

our {{{green}}} day!

March 22, 2010


the first graders at kj’s school all went on a leprechaun – scavenger hunt!
it was so. dang. cute!

the two days leading up to st. patrick’s day,
the first graders would hear leprechauns running accross the roof of the school!
and running through the halls!

so, finally, ON st. patrick’s day, the first graders went looking for them!

{i missed this activity when my older girls were in 1st grade,
and i was so impressed, this time…}

there were about 10 groups of kids, each group had 4-5 kids with one leader.
kj was the leader of his group.

.....

may your day be filled with lots of good luck!

{a little leprechaun delivered some green goodies for our family}

we will have green spelt crepes & green milk with breakfast…

i am taking krispy kreme green donuts to three of my kids’ classes today.

with mini green Gatorade’s.

and we will have a green-themed dinner.

what are your plans?

kj tried to wake us up at 3am, but dusty gave him a quick, “no, it’s too early…go back to bed!” in a groggy voice, and then everyone woke up just after 8am, which is pretty good for jet-lagged parents!

our morning was a perfect combination of excitement, love, laziness, a big home-cooked breakfast,
