Spring?

Spring has sprung, the grass is WHITE? This is what happened here last night! As many of you know, I hate winter and I hate snow even more, but this is rediculous and no its not April Fool's, that's tomorrow!

Here are some of the bracelets I have made

Since Ethan started Kindergarten I found myself kind of lost, so with Ali's instructions I learned how to make bracelets and now I have made over 200, mostly I give them away, although everyone keeps telling me I should sell them. I'm not convinced they are that good, but I LOVE making them and giving them away. The one on top is the one I made for McCall for Easter. I thought I'd like to try making the individual charms. It took a while to make, but it was a lot of fun.

My new projects

These are my new hairbow things.

Second Grade Grandparents program

This year was McCall and Sadie's grandparents program and the parents got to have a sneak preview. McCall was so nervous about saying her part, which she has known since the day they gave it to her. I could see her lips moving practicing her part over and over during the program, her part wasn't until about 3/4 of the way through. After she said her part she relaxed and enjoyed the rest of the program. Sadie on the other hand pretty much doesn't stress over anything and socialized more than participated!

This is our last day of Spring Break! Tonight we are taking the kids to "Horton hears a Who". Kind of make up for no Easter Baskets! A few of the kids came over for Easter dinner, had a "low key" egg hunt. It was fun watching how excited the little ones were finding every egg. Most of them were on the ground, I stepped on one, they were everywhere. At first, Makenna, Cole and Brinley started out, they were kind of overwhelmed by where to start, but they got the hang of it rather quickly and immediately started filling their baskets. Then the other kids came out and cleaned house even quicker! This was Trent's first year to not find eggs, kind of a bitter sweet moment for him.

Cole in time out! I thought this was so cute, even if he was in trouble!
