Easter weekend

This weekend was great...but really long! Friday I spent the day with Sydney and Madison for some quality time. I took them shopping and thought it would be nice to let them pick out their own Easter dresses. This was probably not the best idea....we went to four stores before they both picked one out! We then went and had a great lunch with the grandparents. I had wanted to take them to paint pottery and have it fired...but we ran out of time (this was the one thing I really wanted to do with them), oh well I guess we can save it for a rainy day.

Saturday everything just went wrong...lol. We were suppose to take the kids to a good friends son's b-day party and then get the kids pictures done. Neither happened. This is why I don't make plans. My brother decided at the last minute to come into town, which was nice. He wanted to drive over and see Robert's truck...so we met him in Allen had lunch and then let the kids look at the truck and stuff. Then by the time we all loaded up (two adults & six kids) and got back to the house...Robert called and asked if when we were suppose to be leaving for the b-day party. By this time the party had already been going to 30 minutes so there was absolutely no way we would of made it there before it was over.

Sunday, again planned on going to church....but....Sydney had a stomach bug and needless to say "got sick" all down the hall and in the bathroom. She was fine later by the time we had lunch and hunted Easter eggs. The kids hunting the eggs were the best part of the entire weekend! Cagen finally caught on and when his basket got to full the eggs started falling out....and Maddie would just follow him and pick them up!

Even though every single thing we had planned didn't happen, it was a really great Easter!
