And just for the record, there was a lovely Easter brunch with ham, peas, sweet potatoes, and fresh rolls. William sat down and said, "Wow, usually we have a lame lunch."
Thanks, William.
We started by decorating Easter eggs with stickers.
When we took a walk around the block, that trickster Easter bunny visited our house! Even baby Grace got the hang of picking up eggs once she found out what was in them.
Can you believe the weather? Last Easter it snowed 7 inches (maybe I'm exaggerating).
We headed inside and the kids decorated the bunny house. Charlotte and I made a bunny cake.
Then we put on our Easter finery and headed over to our friends Andy & Kaitlin's for an Easter egg hunt extraordinaire!
Gracie surprised me by how big she seemed, sitting at the kids table, reading on her own, looking for eggs...
William was the oldest child at the egg hunt, and he earned a super big medal of honor. Instead of loading up his basket as fast as he could, he decided to get 4 eggs for himself and then to help the little ones. He is so amazing. Such a big, caring heart. Way to go, William!
My life is still largely consumed by the spring cleaning. My fashion consultant arrived on Friday night, and we went through every item of clothing I had not worn in the past year. Plus the twelve boxes I had in the attic. Twelve! I am not kidding. This is the pile I will consign. There were bags and bags of stuff for Goodwill as well. Holy buckets!
And this is all the stuff bound for donation, round one. That's a lot to fit in one car! I'll be back at it again tomorrow.
So proud of you for consolidating your wardrobe! You worked so hard and ended up with an amazingly beautiful, stylish wardrobe. You look sassy from head to toe!
ReplyDeleteBTW - I love the Easter outfit. Did you feel as gorgeous as you looked?!
Keep up the good work on the rest of the consolidating - it's chaos now, but it's going to make you feel fabulous when it's done!
