Easter


Well this Easter was quite fun. We did a lot of things and enjoyed our day. Church was always good. Kara especially loves going to nursery. She is always ready and willing to get ready for church. When we came home we decided to watch a Jesus Christ related movie to think of the real meaning of Easter. My Dad had given us "The Testaments" DVD the night before so we put that in and watched that. It was fun to here my sister Amy high voice in that movie. We then left to make our way to my Mom's for dinner. We made 2 stops before. We saw Grandma Shepard she enjoyed seeing the children. She was so happy we stopped in even if it was only for 10 minutes. We then left and saw Grandma Sonntag she was happy to see us as well. She was surprised to have us there. We stayed 10 minutes there too. But the visit was good for being so short. We then made it to my Mom's for Dinner. We had smoked beef ribs, parmesan potato wedges, and candied carrots. And Grandma Sonntag's famous jello. The food was really good. the ribs had a different taste being smoked but I enjoyed it. After dinner we took these cute pictures of the children. I didn't have a single picture of my children together by themselves. After that we then traveled to see Danny's parents. Mom and Dad Saxton were happy to see the children. After that we finally made it home after nine. It was a wonderful Easter.


Christopher is my cute little bear. That is his nickname. He brings me so much joy and happiness. He got his first tooth on April 5-6th. So he has been a bit of a grouch. When we were shopping for Easter stuff Saturday. I saw this cute outfit and we decided to get it for him. It has a lion on it and says "King of the Jungle". Danny's favorite animal is a lion. So we were very excited. He looks so cute with the hat and cargo pants. I love cargo pants. So my boy will probably have many of them.


Kara is my cute snuggle bear. That is her nickname. Getting her easter dress was loads of fun. I wanted her to pick it out and I wanted it to be what she would be excited about wearing. We were in the store they had 3 dresses in her size so I got all of them out and asked her what one she wanted. We had it down to 2 different ones. One was green and the other pink. I asked her what one she wanted and she picked the pink one. We then go shoes. We had 2 different ones there to one with colorful flowers or one with one white flower. Well she got the colorful flowers one. She even got new tights. She was so excited about her dress and shoes when we got home that night she wanted to wear them right then. I told her tomorrow for church. Well first thing she asked me when she woke up was "Mama, Pretty dress On." Since Easter she has asked to wear it 2 more times I am so glad that she has a pretty dress that she like so much. She loves the shoes too. She has worn those around the house almost every day. And then finds them and wants to put them on again.


I love my children so much they are my biggest joy in life. They bring so much happiness to me.
