Easter Sunday

The hit of the Easter basket were play-doh surprise eggs! Plastic eggs with a treat, ours had a my little pony inside, wrapped in play-doh!



My two little bunnies!



Charlie was in love with the chocolate in his basket.

It is always a challenge getting ready and breaking away from the basket to go to church, but we managed to do it smoothly and have smiles.

Sissy was eager to do the egg hunt at church. Theirs works a little different than some. They put out tons of eggs each numbered from 1 - 12. The kids have to find all the numbers, then turn their eggs in for a prize! 

Charlie abandoned the effort quickly and just wanted to play on the playground!

The kids got these cute bunnies from Ms. Jacquie.

Grandaddy and Meme sent these yummy chocolate bunnies! Both kids have devoured them.
Olivia was so happy to get her basket from Nanny and Uncle Aaron! Maybe because there are packs hidden in the eggs!

Olivia was a good sport taking her picture with these eggs!

Charlie loves her and took the chance to talk to her!

I made this cute cake for our Easter dessert. Our meal was pretty simple with ham, sweet potato casserole, asparagus, and rolls. I made this cake and Aaron made a chocolate pie for dessert. 




We spent the afternoon hanging around outside talking and playing. The kids loved having time with Aunt Nay and just hanging around.

Frozen Party Details

Like most girls her age, Sarah Graves LOVES Frozen and has known for quite some time that she wanted a Frozen birthday party. I was so excited when I saw this invitation on Etsy and she loved it too! It reminded me of an infographic. The Frozen theme was a lot of fun! There were so many things to choose from that I took to pinterest and eventually decided on the ideas that I would use for this party. I found this great Arendelle banner here on Pinterest I was so grateful that my sister did a snowflake Christmas and had tons of snowflake ornaments to hang as decorations! This party theme was a lot of fun to plan the food. Kristoff's ice cubes were made from Jell-o with an ombre effect. I found the recipe here on Pinterest. I doubled the recipe to make a 13x9 size pan of it and I made 2 13x9 pans of it. The made plenty of "ice cubes" to fill 35 cups. They turned out really cute! My parents made this Elsa cake and did a fabulous job

Cloth vs. Disposable

By -
We have mostly been planning to do disposable diapers because I felt that cloth would just be too much work when I go back to work.  Then, we saw these diapers called happy heiny's ( www.happyheinys.com ).  These looked much different than what I envisioned cloth diapers to look like.  Mom used cloth diapers with me and Jeanne', so she felt totally up for using them while Sarah Graves is at her house.  I started looking into the cost comparison and depending on what type of cloth diapers you buy, you can save anywhere from $1200 - $1700.  That is pretty attractive, not to mention knowing that you aren't filling up a landfill somewhere.  There are lots of different varieties of cloth diapers out there, but the ones that seem to be a good investment and user friendly are diapers that have snap closures, with a pocket for an insert to absorb the contents, and they are one size that adjusts as your baby grows from a newborn up to 35 pounds.  You can also purchase the traditio
