Easter



We had a whirl wind of Easter and Spring break this year, as 19 family members came and left our house within 9 days!! Wow!! First came my parents, they came in on Friday for the Easter weekend, and left Sunday night. We had a great time visiting with them and they got to go to the neighborhood egg hunt, the neighborhood movie night in the pavilion, and even join us for church Sunday morning!!

Easter morning when we woke up they kids had their egg hunt, and ran around trying to find their baskets. Tim was putting the Turkey in the oven, I was getting the kids clothes out, opening toys, and talking them out of eating their candy!! We had to be at Church around 9, so we got everyone dressed and headed of to Church fairly early in the morning! Church was great like always, but all of a sudden it hit me, I looked at Tim and said "did you put water in the roaster".."no"..."o shit, shit, shit", I walked over to mom while the band was still playing "mom, do you think the roaster will catch on fire if there's no water in it"..."um I don't think so".....super, great fantastic!! All I could do for the rest of mass is imagine my turkey dried out to a crisp :( My friend Nicole was sitting next to me and when the pastor said "don't worry about your ham's at home they're cooking just find in the over, Nicole says to me "or they're well done already". Well I am happy to say that the turkey was okay, a little more dry than it should of been but okay, what saved me is the limes, lemons and oranges I stuff in middle of the bird..Thank God!!

Anyways it was a buetiful day here, like always, so we ate a little after Church and the kids played in the sprinkler, rode bikes, scooters, roller bladed,rip sticked and colored chalk all day long!! My Grandma and Aunt did drive in for dinner from Atlanta, so it was nice to be able to visit with them for awhile. It's kinda weird how different Easter was down here than what we usually do at home. We're so much more relaxed down here, and happy. It was so nice to enjoy our first egg hunt outside and spend the day on the front porch watching all the kids play!!
