Getting Ready to Visit Family

So today we have to start packing to visit our families for Easter. We are leaving sometime tomorrow. Our big plans are to head to our niece's birthday party...she's turning four on Easter. I don't think anything big is planned, just cake and ice cream at the house. Then we'll go to church on Sunday, and then out to Granny's house for a good home cooked meal...she's a great cook!!! I'm hoping I'll get to see my new nephew. He was born on Feb. 17th, and I've yet to see him. It's my brother's first baby (and probably the only one they'll have).

The Easter Bunny will be visiting our house a day early. I want my kids to enjoy holidays at our house instead of having to do all the fun stuff somewhere else. Plus, it's nice to not have to bring all the toys & baskets to and from our house. We were hoping for pretty weather so we could have a big Easter egg hunt at Granny's house, but it looks like we'll have to stay inside for that. I'm sure Nolan & Judson will have a great time since they are 3 (Judson a month away from 3)...I love this age except for the back talk!!! I really appreciate my parents now too since I am now a mother. I just wish my mom was still alive so that she could enjoy her grand kids. She passed away from breast cancer in July of 2003, so she never got to see any of her grand kids. But I believe that she watches over us from heaven.

Well, I need to start doing something since I've got 2 kids asleep...I have to take advantage of this time because it doesn't come by too often. I will post again probably after we return on Sunday!
