Last week I had a deam that I won some gold. Today, after lunch, I wanted something sweet. I went to the snack closet. When I opened the door, a fortune cookie fell to the floor. So I said, "OK, I'll eat it." Here is my fortune. So......SHOW ME THE GOLD!

Cherry blossoms after the rain this morning. When Annie was little, she would stand on anything she could push close to the fence, so that she could reach up and eat the cherries off of this bush on the other side. These days, she's big enough to climb over the fence, just for the fun of it, without even standing up on anything first.

"I'm a super duper pooper!" Thanks Colleen...I hope you all have that song in my head like I do! : )

All the Easter Dishes are washed except these two roasting pans which I left to soak.

Miranda and I met for a jog today. We are doing our first 5K on Sunday. We decided that today was a good day to start training for it (probably should have started a few months ago). When I got home I tracked how far we had gone (Thanks for the website, Tim). We probably jogged about 2 - 2.5 miles and then walked the other 3 - 3.5 miles.

Happy Easter! I'm feeling better now and so we went to a friends house for Easter dinner. James tired himself out and we had a Easter egg hunt at the house. I had to put the last picture in cause it was sooo cute! James and Emily were watching Sesame Street together. James sat right next to Emily on him own.

My sweet in-laws on a walk with us this afternoon.

Surprisingly, Brooks was the first one to arrive on Easter Day. When he asked if he could help with anything, I gave him a couple things to do including slicing the cheese and putting it on the plate. What a beautiful display!

Marla April 4, 2010

I feel soo sick today but we got the eggs done. I can barely get up. I started to feel sick yesterday. I wanted to go on an easter egg hunt for James but I'm just too sick. Wish we were at Colleen's and I was healthy.

Emily had her check up today. the examine table was sooo cute. We now go to the Air force base for our doctors visits. She weighs 15 1/2 lbs and she is in the 98% in weight and height she is 89%. they say she is really big and tall. Looks like she doesn't take after her mommy.

Marla April 2, 2010

Hanging out on the steps of Abe Lincoln's Springfield house and Cole going up the steps in the old state capitol building.

Recycling at St Peter School. It's an easy way to fundraise and help the earth at the same time. The school gets money for people's paper garbage.

Maureen April 2, 2010

I'm always pleasantly surprised when the forsythia blooms, since I planted it in such a shady spot!

Vaughn April 2, 2010

We went snorkeling with sharks!!!

The daffodils starting to bloom behind the girl with the flowers statue that Mom liked. Does anyone know who gave it to her?

Maureen April 1, 2010

I took the kids out wading in the creek at a park in Winfield, tonight. They found this frog statue somewhere in the water. They gave it to Corey, because he likes frogs.

It's so nice to be able to open the windows and let in the nice, fresh, warm spring air.

Very steep water slide at Disney waterpark blizzard beach.

Margie March 31, 2010

We were pulling out of our neighborhood on the way to Jesse's baseball game, and look what we saw walking along. A couple of days earlier we saw him and his girlfriend in nearly the same spot. I told Jesse that someone nearby must own them. He is insisting that they are just wild turkeys roaming around.

Pretty blue flowers in my backyard. I did some research to find out what they are. They are called Siberian Squill and are part of the Lily family. It is a wildflower.
