who knew....

So I was excited to try making calzones for dinner tonight. I left the room for a minute, came back to find Eli's head in my flour bucket! People always say forget the present just give kids the box and they'll entertain themselves, well I guess forget having them help you make dinner just let them have the flour!!

lions, tigers, and bears!!

last weekend, my mom, sister Amie, nephew Riley, brother and sis in law, me and my kids went to the zoo. We had so much fun and the weather was absolutely beautiful!!




(the alligator was his favorite this year)

(I'm not sure you can see it but this monkey had a stuffed monkey it was passing from it's foot to the other foot and swinging around with it, it was really funny)

Just my luck...

2 years ago I went to the home and garden show. I entered this drawing to win this scooter. I also entered Nat, Jacque, and Will. Well Nat won it!!


This year I won this hot wheels by my sisters name, too bad she doesn't have room to store it so it's staying at my house til she gets more settled....:)


I really wish I could win something in my own name lol :)

Preparing for Easter...

Eli and I found the idea for these cupcakes (that are supposed to look like Easter baskets). We made these for some neighbors.




We had fun dying eggs with our friends The Batty's.







My mom found these fun little ceramic Easter eggs and E loved painting them...

Easter

We had a fun Easter. Pretty sure Eli got a little spoiled from the bunny. The weather was cold, windy, and snowy so he had to ride his new spiderman trike and play basketball inside. Hopefully soon we will see sunshine outside...
