The Egg Hunt

The Easter Bunny left eggs inside the house this year, due to the threat of rain... that never came. But kids didn't mind waking up to find their Easter baskets and eggs all over the house.

Easter

I decided to take the kids to Easter mass on Saturday night. It was about a 2 1/2 hour service. The kids hung in there. I'm so proud of all of them.

A Boy and His Dog

Jack's favorite place to do homework is on the steps. It's Dudley's favorite place for Jack to do homework too.

Jack's Birthday Surprise

So we spent the morning dying eggs and then we went to Hockey Giant and bought him a new hockey stick. Then we got home and Aunt Judy came over and brought GIFTS! AND ...Mike, Ania, Matt, Andy, Katie and little Tommy. AND pizza AND a Dairy Queen ice cream cake. Jack was so surprised!

Dying Eggs

I got up early this morning to boil the eggs. When the kids woke up they ate breakfast and started dying the eggs. Notice their pajama tops.

Reading to Dudley

Midori got a book with pictures of all of her classmates. She borrowed it from school so that she could learn all of her classmates' names over spring break. Keiko liked to read about their favorite colors and food, and Dudley seemed to like hearing about them.

Jack's New Shoes

We were at the Burnsville Center today shopping and Jack got a new pair of sneakers. He is so proud of them especially since they are Lakeville South colors which is where he will go to highschool. He wanted me to take pictures of him in them before he went out to play because he wanted you to see them before they got all "muddied up".
