Josh found this movie on in demand Saturday night and I stayed up till 3:00am to watch it. I have watched it two more times since. I love this movie!!!!Josh took me to see this movie in the theatre when we were back home for Christmas the year it came out. I had to share because this movie makes me smile.....A LOT :)

Menards


After we left the school playground Saturday, we went to Menards. Menards has a playground set up inside. The kids played here for around an hour and it gave them a break from the sun.

Oh and to answer your question, Ollie does at least try to take his shoes off EVERYWHERE we go!








After we left here, we had some ice cream to end our day! :)

T ball time....


Petey's first T ball game is Saturday. He got his shirt and hat this week. So, we took him to Dick's and bought him some pants and socks........a bag, and batting gloves.......
:)


Inspiration from Stephanie.


A while back I saw a post from Stephanie called "Pretty things made by Stephanie". In her post, she made a bow holder for her daughter. I thought it was really cute. So last week I bought stuff to make Tatum a bow holder too, for her ever growing collection of bows.

Tatum picked out the ribbon to clip the bows on.


I also painted some hooks to hang her bags or purses on. She has so many, I should have made two or three! :)

What did you do..........


with your left over Easter eggs?



I made deviled eggs. My mother in law showed me how to make them on Easter. Yummy!!!

The GREAT Big Easter post!

(I know this post is over due) For Easter weekend, we went to our hometown to see family & friends. We brought our furry dogs with us. YES, all six of us & our two furry dogs were in Eddie Expedition!
This is Sherman.

This is Chloe.


Van, Petey, Ollie & I colored Easter eggs on Saturday & baked sugar cookies.

Petey liked the orange color.

Ollie liked the green color. Van made the blue eggs and I made the pink eggs.
