spring break
April 19, 2009
has been total chill at our home…including the weather, at times.
in the past nine days we visited a few parks, an arcade, went to a couple of movies, ate out a few times {including the new “five guys burger & fries,} the kids have had non-stop play dates and sleepovers with friends, we’ve cleaned-cleaned-cleaned for spring, and I still had school {boo.}
Myla and her friend boston have taken up a new neighborhood past time of “dumpster diving.” They also went fishing at night with headlamps, 
the girl was in heaven!
Kiana finished a couple novels, and slept in till 1pm nearly every afternoon. she also spent a good few hours playing this with Eli and Ethan-
KJ logged at least 100 hours on the x-box 360.

easter eggs
April 6, 2009
Big papi returned home from the big dance just in time
sparkles couldn’t wait for deviled eggs, she ate hers while she decorated them!
{sometimes with the shell-ewww!}
the finished eggs-
mine/Kiana’s
Myla’s/KJ’s
the post egg decorating snack…
this is an excellent snack/meal for no-sugar dieters!
if you don’t have a cake-decorator and/or deviled yoke decorator, use a Ziploc bag to squeeze the yokes back in. I use a Ziploc bag when I’m feeling lazy and don’t want to wash the extra dishes.
