Blessed Beyond Measure: Family Thursday, Easter Eggs and A Zoo Trip

Well I am behind on blogging. . .I had a few posts in my head from last week. . .however they may never get posted. I figure if I keep waiting to write about it all I will never start again so here goes skipping till today. . .at least for now who knows I may go back . . .if I have time.

So today is Thursday in our family it's family day. We spend it with my mom and sisters and our children. Since Amanda is working now we miss her but are so glad that Sam and Elizabeth have not had to miss one! Since Brandy or I watch them most days we are able to spend lots of time with them! :)

So today after lunch we decided to dye Easter Eggs. I was so excited about the fact that Caden can now do this. Although he didn't miss it because he knew nothing about it. He had a good time and really enjoyed it just as I think all of the kiddos did!

While we were hanging out at Mamas I decided that I was going to take my kids to the zoo for a few hours before heading home. So I told Brandy if she wanted to come pick up Elijah later I would take him with us. She agreed and he was so super excited to get to go with us. The kids were so good at the zoo. My kids love that new children's zoo and do not really want to do anything else right now. Between the petting zoo, the lorikeets and the water stream they are oh so happy there! In fact we have hardly done anything else since they opened it!

So we headed home around 5 the kids went into the backyard to play while I started dinner. It was such a nice day!

I am so really enjoying this weather especially since Anthony cleaned the attic fan yesterday! It is so nice, breezy and cool in our house and NO AIR!!!! I was cleaning yesterday, going thru the kids clothes, pulling out spring/summer clothing and straightening up the garage. I thought I was just hot because of all of the work all day. However when Anthony came home He was hot also. He cleaned the attic fan and turned it on! That thing makes the biggest difference! I think any house we ever have it will have to have one of those or we will have to put on in!

Tomorrow Anthony is off work so he and the girls are heading to Lowe's early to pick out some flowers to plant. Then we are spending the day in the backyard (weather permitting) to get it cleaned up for spring/summer!

Well I am off of here now. It is nice to (kinda) get caught up :)
