I’m glad I’m sharing

my life with you.

understand, or love me

the way you do.

Thank you

I could ever have.

I Love you!

Happy 39th Birthday!

Easter Crafting!

We decided to make Easter candy this year for our our nieces. We had all of the molds just sitting in the basement and decided we might just as well get some use out of them. Some of the molds were Chris's moms and some were Laurie's grandmas.

We made these little Easter baskets for the girls out of card stock, a couple brads and some ribbon.

We needed something to put the homemade chocolate in.

Jerzie gave us an Easter basket on Sunday. She was so proud of herself. She colored the eggs with Mommy and Daddy. Click HERE to see her coloring her eggs.

She picked out the eggs she wanted Chris and I to have. Aren't they cute? We got some really cute picture of Jerzie and Payton together. We will post them later this week. We didn't get to spend time with Steph or Alexis this year for Easter. Steph had to work and had dinner with Nate's family, and poor Alexis was sick all day. She didn't even want to look for her Easter basket.

Bloomin' Tuesday!

Happy Easter!

We hope you have a wonderful day today with your friends and family. We will be having dinner at Mom's this year with Kim, Tabatha, Jerzie and Payton. Later tonight we will go to Dad and Mom's to celebrate Mom's birthday with her. We will have to post what we made for the girls later this week. We don't want to give it away.

Happy Birthday Mom!

Bloomin' Tuesday!

We had some warmer weather this past week, so we were able to get a couple of spring pictures. The weather man is calling for lake effect snow for our area again tonight :(

We only have yellow and white crocus this year. None of our purple ones came up. It is still early, maybe they still will.

Our new tree that the city planted made it through the winter. We can see some green popping out on it.

Mystery Solved!

We noticed that we have been going through a lot more bird seed this year than we usually do. We really weren't sure where it was all going...

We had seen this little squirrel around, but didn't think it was getting in the feeder. He looks pretty comfortable up there doesn't he?

Then we saw this monster squirrel. It looks pretty sneaky if you ask me.

It is! It jumps up about 5 feet from the ground and lands right in the feeder.

It will sit in there and eat the sunflower seeds until it can hardly move if we don't scare it off.
