Easter 2013

Only my little people made pictures this Easter. The big kids were with Grandma and Grandpa all day so I didn't have a chance to take pictures of them. 
 This little booger did not want to let me take his picture.
 Our adorable little 3 year old neighbor boy brought these pretty flowers over. We have the best neighbors!
 Homemade mashed potatoes, homemade rolls, ham, roast beef, and zucchini. Yum!
 The classic, traditional bunny cake. The big kids got to do the decorating this year. They all did a great job.
 Grandma made Aiden's first egg hunt simple and put all his eggs on the couch.
 He figured out really quick that they all had candy in them.
 Checking out her stash.

Kylie's 12th Birthday

Kylie was visiting around the time of her birthday so we were lucky enough to get to have a little party for  her. It was great to see her and celebrate with her. I still remember well when she was born, just before the end of my Senior year of high school. We love you Kylie Lylie! Hope you had a great visit with us.
I was feeling way too super nice and let Olivia have a donut on the way home from the store. She fell asleep before finishing it and was a huge mess by the time we got home. She looked really cute though.

Came across these while cleaning. Some of the notes that were posted around my mom's house when we celebrated my 30th birthday in December.

4th Avenue Street Fair

We have all been wanting to check out the 4th Avenue Street Fair for a few years now. We decided to finally check it out. It was OK I suppose. There were some neat booths but when you have no money to spend on the cool things you really like, it makes it a bit less fun. There are also several food vendors that have some tasty looking food. Again though, not gonna drop that kind of money on food. So, we went, we checked it out, been there, done that. I would maybe go back one day when we had money again and maybe just with Jay.
Oh my gosh, some tasty looking BBQ places.
 One of my favorite booths. I loved this jewelry and I grabbed the guys card so maybe one day I might actually be able to buy something.
 This is the description of the above mentioned jewelry.
See that shack place on the left? That is where I practiced the most restraint. I wanted cheesecake on a stick so bad. I didn't do it though. Yay me!
 Crowds like this are SO not my thing, especially with 4 kids in tow.
 Aiden was so tripped out to be in a moving vehicle with no carseat. 
 The bridge to the parking garage.
 My very favorite part of the day. Dinner at one of my most favorite restaurants. Mmmmmm!

St. Patrick's Day also brought this little goober's 15th month of life. He is silly, and sweet and we adore him.
St. Patrick's Day dinner. All things green of course. Potato soup, homemade bread, jello, and soda. It was a tasty green dinner!
 Jay made a green dessert too, lazy momma's pudding. Mom brought over some nice, green rice krispie treats too. Mmmm!

Pie Day

3.14 Day pie. Reduced fat Oreo cookie crust, 1 sugar free chocolate and 1 sugar free cheescake pudding, 1 tub reduced fat cool whip. A little healthier but still very tasty.

Lunch at the park behind our house. 
Snapped this picture of a roadrunner I saw on the way back from my walk. Jay has never seen one and in the last year or so I have seen like 6.
Just checkin' emails and chattin' things up with friends online.
