Saturday my Aunt Glenda had a brunch get together for Easter. My cousin Jennifer ( http://jenniferharrphotography.com ), her two children Reese & Macy were there. I rarely get to see them, because they live in Washington. She is an excellant photographer, so I hope she sends me some of the pictures she took on Saturday. My cousin Jerome was there and his cute little girl Olivia. I have not gotten to see her other than pictures from right after she was born, and she is seven/eight months now?! My Grandma & Grandpa were here from East Texas and I miss them a bunch. It was good to see everyone, and I hope it wont be so long before I get to see them again! We also got to visit with some of Ernie’s (Aunt Glenda’s husband) family and they were super nice. We had a blast and Taylor had alot of fun hunting for eggs!

After the brunch get together, I was going to go to my side of the family’s Easter dinner, but I guess communication got mixed up. Noone realized we were doing it then, so it ended up being canceled, so Taylor and I went to spend some time with my sister. I was a little disappointed about the Easter dinner, so this helped to cheer me up a bit.

Yesterday, we went to Jamie’s family’s Easter get together. It was alot of fun too. We had so many eggs that we didnt know where all to hide them lol. Finally we put a bunch right at the door/entrance area of the room that they would be coming out of. It was a handy trick lol. I didnt get that many pictures today, but I got a few.

Yesterday Jamie, Taylor, and I had a fun and busy day. First, we went to lunch with Jamie’s mom at Cheddars. It was very yummy. After lunch, Jamie, Taylor, and I went to the PGA Tour Superstore to look at golf clubs. Jamie has been playing for a few months now and is doing very well. He started with a handicap of 35 and is already down to an 18. Anyway, we ended up finding a few clubs that he wanted (I couldnt really tell you anything personally about them lol). I told him he could buy them for Father’s day (along with a few others that he wanted/already got) to upgrade his set. We will probably still get him something else, but thats the main/big gift. or atleast an excuse to spend so much on something thats not really needed lol. We werent planning to buy anything when we went, but when we found them on sale for 20% normal price (which was already cheaper than anywhere else) we had to buy them. And we tested them out (ok so I didnt, but he did lol), and Taylor got in on the action. She found the little sand pit they had and took her shoes and socks off and jumped right in. It was pretty funny and cute at the same time. I knew it was definately a photo moment!

After we left the golf store we went to the park. I forgot to take my camera with me, but she had alot of fun. When we were about to leave, Jamie’s friend Clayton called. He was down for spring break and wanted to go see a movie last night. So we made plans to watch Semi Pro with him a 9:15. So we left the park and went to Bed Bath and Beyond, where we looked around a little to waste some time. We have a gift certificate from our wedding left to Bed Bath and Beyond, that we want to use to buy some new towels. We found some that were on sale and debated whether to buy them, but we decided to go ahead and wait. We stayed there a little too long, because we had to rush to get something to eat before the movie.

We went to Freebirds for dinner. It was the first time for each of us to go there. We like burritos and everyone kept telling us how much better Freebirds was compared to other burrito places. It was okay, but we didn’t really like their salsa (if you can even call it that since it was just liquid??). We took our burritos (and quesadilla for Taylor) to go and ate on the way home. When we got home we put Taylor to bed and left for the movie (Jamie’s mom was watching Taylor).

We had a pretty good day. I loved spending so much time doing random stuff with Jamie and Taylor. I love my family. ♥

This week is Spring Break for some schools (mine was actually last week), so I am babysitting Tullia while she has Spring Break off with her Dad. Taylor and Tullia are having so much fun together. Today is such a boring, depressing day outside. It has been pouring outside just about all day. That means they dont get to play outside at all today. I thought since they have been so good stuck indoors all day, I would suprise them with cupcakes when they woke up from their naps. Needless to say, they LOVED them!

Hopefully the rest of the week will be sunny, or atleast where we are able to do something fun. I was thinking about maybe taking them to the aquarium and/or the zoo. We will have to see how the rest of the week unfolds to decide for sure.

A local Mom’s group that I’m in had an Easter egg hunt and picnic today. We had alot of fun and met alot of new families. Taylor had a blast playing on the playground and hunting for eggs. We hope to get to know more of the families and ladies in the group and get to know them all better. I got a few pictures, mainly of Taylor.

If you are a local Mom in the Dallas/Ft Worth Area, let me know and I will send you the link to the Mom’s group. There are a bunch of great people in the group. They have a message board that allows for support, advice, playdates and general chat for parents of all types. Its wonderful!

We went out to dinner tonight at Pappasitos. We got some good fajitas, queso, and salsa. Yum!
