Easter 2010

As promised...a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...here are Easter pictures!!  

 
Here are the boys, inspecting their goodies.  Hayden woke up first of course, and after seeing the baskets on the table he had to come wake me up to inform me that the Easter Bunny brought us jelly beans!  I was happy to see him so enthused about it all, but seeing as how I was the "Easter Bunny" and I didn't get to bed until almost 1AM the night before, I could have done without the early wake-up call:)  I love him to pieces, but he just does not understand that mommy is not the uber chipper "morning person" that he is!


We had family over that afternoon for an easter egg hunt and lunch.  Everyone had a great time!

Mr. Caleb in all his cuteness!!

Fun in the trampoline.
 
Hayden was making sure that everyone had the same number of eggs in their basket...

Holy neglected blog, Batman!!

Wow...so, 11 months ago was my last post on here.  Hmm...I could give you any number of excuses but I'll spare everyone and we'll just say it has been a  long and trying 11 months.   Not much of it I want to talk (err...umm...blog) about.  So...forgive me?  Thank you!

I wanted to blog so that I could keep a record of day to day life with my family.  I failed miserably at that this past year, and I hope I don't fail again...part of the reason I neglected this blog was because I didn't want it to turn into a place for me to vent about all the bad stuff.  I started another blog to help with that...it's actually focused on minimizing the bad stuff, but if there is any major venting I expect it will take place there.  Simplicity is the name of it, and I'm hoping it will be a useful tool in making me stick to my goals...or figuring out what the heck they are at least.

So...this blog is still here, and hopefully will be more active from now on. 

I'll upload some pictures of Easter in the next couple of days.  We had a great time here yesterday with lots of family!
