Sweet Mom-ments



As any parent would agree, children are the most precious when asleep. Hugging a teddy bear just tops it off.

Easter Sunday




Wasn't much to it this year since Simon's is still too young to get into the real meaning of Easter. However, there was still simple celebration. We started out the night before dying eggs at Kelli's house with her 8 year old son, Jonah. Then we headed out to Seacoast Vineyard Church on Sunday morning. It was Seacoast's first service in their new building. The place was absolutely gorgeous and filled with lots of God's love. Then we headed over to Grandma's house where we attempted to sit down a family of eight at a lovely set dinner table to eat a delicious meal. The meal consisted of a lamb, a pork tenderloin with baked apples, broccoli salad, half-mashed potatoes, and baby carrots sweetened with honey and seasoned with mint. Delightful! Hats off to Laurel A.K.A. Grandma. Afterwards, we headed outside for a mini easter egg hunt where Simon was assisted by his cousin, Drew, to hunt for seven colorful eggs planted conspicuously around the backyard. The rest of the afternoon was spent hanging out in the yard with monster trucks, dirt and colored chalk. And lets not forget the cool easter basket filled with two easter books, a watch decorated with electric guitars, a stuffed bunny, and a small box of Goldfish. Yum!
