TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WE DO NOW...

on Easter...after spending 10 years of Easters in Dallas for LTC...then last year in Arkansas with our college girl...it just seems foreign for us to stay home.  We ended up having a little quality time with our extended family. It was nice.  Feels different, but not so hurried, which is a good thing.  Here's the highlights:
My cupcake experiment:  Possibly the messiest cupcake I've ever done.  Frosted with chocolate then dipped in M&M's...super rich!
We went to my mother's house for a little dinner - lots of grandkids and friends!
You're never too old to hunt for Easter eggs!  There's some good car wash money to be found out there!
Then we headed down to southwest Oklahoma where we spent time with my husband's family.  This is our sweet little great nephew's standard smile for pictures!
Caught him off-guard!  Isn't he just the cutest?  Gonna be a big brother in August!
We also got to meet our first great niece!  She's just a week old!

 Sweet to see a new generation coming up with Christian parents.

He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.” And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them.  Mark  10: 14-16

Love the pictures! It's kind of special being a great aunt, isn't it? So sorry we missed seeing you all.

Never too old to hunt eggs! We had our first year of LTC Easter weekend. Collin loved every minute of it! So here is to the next 16ish more years!
