Easter Weekend

I'm a bit behind with blogging. I chose to spend my time with Jess and her family over the weekend. We stayed up way too late and got up too early. It was wonderful to get to be together and enjoy each other face to face. We talk on the phone atleast twice a day and will try and catch each other on the computer once or twice a week... but there's nothing like being in person. We kept busy all weekend. On Friday, Jess and I took Hannah (my niece), Isaac, and Grace shopping. Yeah... 2 pregnant ladies with 3 kids... we were outnumbered... but we survived and actually managed to have a very nice time. The kids were very good, which definately helped! On Saturday, all of us headed to the mall. We don't ever get to go down there because it is about 45 minutes away and doesn't really have the things we generally buy (Walmart and Target usually take care of those things!)... so Isaac and Grace we so excited to be going to the mall!!


We ended up having Isaac's birthday "dinner" (for lunch instead) while we were down there. He chose to go to Friendly's and said it was the best hot dog he had ever had there :) All 3 kids loved the big ice creams they got too!
Sunday was filled with all of the Easter fun. The kids found their Easter baskets after they had eaten breakfast.

We headed to church and enjoyed a wonderful service.


After lunch they found all of their Easter eggs.


There was a lot of fun to be had the whole day. Sunday night, Nah and I had a chance to be alone and talk for an hour before bed without any interruptions. It was so nice to have that time together. Usually there is atleast one child or hubby vying for our attention! :) It was sad to have them leave on Monday... but we really made the most of the weekend we had together. I'm already looking forward to seeing them again this summer... after both of our babies have been welcomed into our families!!! :)

PS- If you are waiting for pics of Isaac's b-day... it's going to have to wait another day... I'm exhausted and choosing my bed over writing another blog tonight! Sorry!!! :)
