~~EaStEr SuNdAy~~

We had such a great Easter together! First off the kids colored their TONZ of Easter eggs a few days before & had so much fun! At first they started with their shirts on, & then they all decided that they didn't want to get their shirts dirty with egg coloring so they took their shirts off...so we've got some cute pics & video! :)

On Easter morning we started the day off pretty early cause my Mom's Easter party was at 9am so all the kiddos got up & found their Easter baskets & Braylee's had a new kitty in it :) she was so excited!!! (cuz her Kitty Cami died about 2 months ago, & that's been pretty sad for her) The boys got new webkins (the new HUGE kid trend for stuffed-animal-computer-games) Then we were off to Grandma's house. We had a MASSIVE Easter egg hunt with my Dad's WHOLE family, which is always way fun for the kids, & lots of yummy food! & then the rest of the day was really relaxing...we love our down time together as a family!



Before their shirts came off :)

2. I HATE HAVING THE SAME HAIR FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME!!! LOL....Hopefully I will get over this one eventually but anyone who knows me can see that my hair changes often! (I am already getting sick of my new hair I just did in October...LOL!!!) I think it's cuz I do hair for a living so I see all these cute hair styles & COLORS then I feel lke I need a change all over again...BaD HaBiT!!! Good thing I have a husband that dosen't mind & loves the new change as much as I do :)

9. I AM A PICTURE FINATIC!!! Anyone who knows me, knows this....I LOVE TAKING PICTURES, looking at pictures, scrapbooking pictures.....:) & I almost always have my camera with me. Gotta' ChErIsH ThE MEmOrIeS!!! :)

10. MY HUSBAND IS MY BEST FRIEND IN THE WHOLE WORLD!!! I LoVe My HuSbAnD! We can talk about anything, be goofy/dorky around eachother, be around/get along with anyone, or just do nothing at all....I love it :) He is exactly like me in EvErYwAy! :~)

11. I LOVE TO COOK!!! I love trying out new recipes & perfecting others :) I'm not at all into making desserts though.....just yummy Dinners & breakfasts, ESPECIALLY STEAK!!! (My fav food in the whole world! & Jason grills a GOOD steak!) I guess my favorite part about it is the fact that me & my family will always have that time together having a yummy home cooked meal! :)

15. I LOVE TO ORGANIZE!!! I am always thinking of what other part of my house I could organize, I just love the feeling of acompilishment that comes along with it & of coarse it goes along with my fact #1... HaViNg A ClEaN HouSe! :)

OUR BAHAMA CRUISE!!!!

SORRY IT HAS TAKEN ME ALMOST A WEEK TO GET THESE UP! I AM A TOTAL SLACKER! SO I HAVE TO START BY SAYING...WE HAD THE BEST TRIP EVER! & IT SUCKS BEING BACK IN THIS COLD WEATHER & ENVERSION :( BUT AT LEAST WE WERE ABLE TO GET AWAY FOR A WEEK :)

SO OUR FIRST NIGHT WE SPENT IN A HOTEL ON SOUTH BEACH, AND OF COARSE THE KIDS LOVED IT, & WANTED TO GO STRAIGHT TO THE BEACH TO PLAY & FIND SEA SHELLS. THEN THE NEXT DAY WE GOT ON THE SHIP, & THE KIDS WERE BLOWN AWAY HOW HUGE IT REALLY WAS! WE WENT TO 3 DIFFERANT ISLANDS: GRAND BAHAMA ISLAND, NASSAU (THE CAPITOL OF THE BAHAMAS), & GREAT STIRRUP CAY (A PRIVATE ISLAND). WE HAD AN ABSOLUTE BLAST! THE BOYS FAVORITE PART WAS THE SNORKLEING, & I WOULD GUESS THAT BRAYLEES WAS THE FACT THAT SHE COULD HAVE ICECREAM 24/7 (SHE LOVES "E-MEEK" THIS IS HOW SHE SAYS ICECREAM :)....& OF COARSE THE SWIMMING FOR ALL THREE, THEY ARE ALL SWIMMING FANATICS! :)
