Happy Easter!!

This weekend was pretty busy. Aside from being Easter weekend, I was sewing, A LOT! I sewed 3 towels: 1 for Beau, 1 for Logan, & 1 for Kyi (nephews "step-son"). They all loved them & are ready to go swimming (or take a bath)! I was up until about 2:30am-ish this morning and then had to get back up at 6:45am to be at 8am Mass. We had planned going the night before but my nephews Mike & Pat made their 1st communion today. Mike, Cindy, Little Mike, Pat, Frank, & Logan all headed to St. Louis to a Cardinal game. It was a really good day!

After Catholic Mass we came home & I made eggs & toast. Mom, Dad, & Sarah stopped by so they ate too. I did a bit more sewing after breakfast and before Presbyterian church. After church, Joe dropped me off so I could do a better job at stitching the letters of each kid's name to the towel. Him & Nate went to Wal-Mart & ended up not buying anything. Then they stopped at County Market for baked beans & a pop.

(This was started last night but Joe told me that I fell asleep at the computer. Here I go again... if I can remember.)

I finished the towels, Joe picked me up, & off to Monroe we went. I made Beau get off the computer for a couple minutes so I could give him his towel. He loved it! Of course he knew who it was from. Later on Jay, Kiri, Kyi, & their friends Josh & Marika arrived at Mom & Dad's. I showed Jay & Kiri Kyi's towels and they loved it. Kyi (& Kiri) were VERY shocked to receive it. Kiri & Jay have been going out for awhile now and Kyi is her son. He's about 6 years old.

We had an awesome Easter Egg Hunt & the Easter Bunny came to visit!! Nate did great! He had the front yard all to himself. The older kids got the sides & back. He filled his bucket full, got LOTS of candy, AND .85 cents! Most of the kids only got about 25 or 35 cents! (Mom can't do quarters as there are way too many kids participating in the hunts.) Dinner was great. We ate most of the day and didn't stop for long.

Logan & Frank were at the game so the Easter Bunny had to come back so Logan wouldn't miss out on seeing him. He came back for about 15 minutes. Nathan was fine with the Bunny from a distance but he did NOT want to get too close to him, let alone smile in a picture with the Bunny. I wish Joe could have been there to see him and it would have been nice if he could have been in the picture. **wink**

We finally got home about 9:30 pm-ish. I was pooped. Joe put Nate to sleep. I'm not sure what I did, but I eventually came to bed and fell asleep while typing. Joe had to help me get ready for bed once he got upstairs.

We slept in just a little bit today but not much. We didnt do a whole lot today. I did some sewing & I'm trying to clean up the sewing room but it's not looking so hot.

I'm thankful for my friend Vanessa as she if as he puppy as is going Kim Vaness as e is a faithful store.
