Happy Easter

We have had such a relaxing Easter weekend together. Three days away from school, work and responsibility has been just what the doctor ordered. Seriously... most of us have a nasty throat congestion thing that is just crummy. Owen of course, has it the worst, but handles it the best. Nothing gets him down.   Saturday night we did the traditional dying of the eggs... glitter, crayons, stickers and die.. messy and fun!
I had a dream the eve of Easter that Kam was getting ready for her Senior Prom.  I woke up a hot mess and begged her to pretend that the Easter Bunny coming to visit her was the greatest thing ever.  Why do they grow up so fast?!  Our bunny leaves a note and sends the kids on a treasure hunt around the house to find their baskets.  It made me so proud that Owen could read the entire letter and all the clues this year!!
I was so happy that the Easter Bunny kept things small this year.  Neither one of them ate a lick of candy at all today.. it's just not their thing.
After a day of complete rest, we headed to my parent's house to celebrate Easter.  My dad cooked bbq ribs for dinner.. per Owen's request.. and the kids ran around for three hours.  Inside, outside, hiding in closets.. I love watching them play.


Our family Easter photo which I will crop and edit when I have a minute of spare time.  Time is hard to come by around here. 
I hope you all had a wonderful Easter.  No fancy dresses or suits and ties for us this year.. but it was perfect just the same.  Hoping for a week where we are all fully back to health!

I absolutely LOVE the bond your kids have with each other. It's awesome honestly. My sister and I never really got along and still don't.
