Happy Easter!!!
Our Easter weekend started off quite interesting. Thursday night all of the cousins played hard until late in the evening. Friday morning Lane woke up saying that his leg hurt him. I brushed him off because he is of course "Lane". About two hours later he came to me and said "but mom, my leg really does hurt me." I looked at it and it was very big and swollen. Rushed to doctor. He had cellulitus from a mosquito bite. (infection in the tissue). We got put on antibiotics and had to go back Saturday morning to make sure it was working. It did, thankfully. So we were able to go to the preschool Easter egg hunt. The kids loved it! My cousin, Caleb, and his wife, Melissa, came and Kathy and her family came to the hunt.



Here are the kids having an egg hunt at our house on Saturday afternoon with the 5 dozen eggs we died. Sorry, the egg dying pictures did not turn out. But they loved finding all of them.
We had a cookout with all of our family that came from Alabama and Will's family Saturday afternoon and the funniest thing happened. A parakeet flew to our roof line. Keith tried to catch it and then my Uncle Danny ended up catching it. So now we have a new pet. It was obviously someones pet that was in need of something to eat.

Here it is in a frog cage for the time being until the Easter bunny arrived with one the following morning. Than your Mamie actually for getting it for them.




Poor Mary-Beth woke up with fever Easter morning. You can see it in her pink checks. Today Lane is running fever! Poor thing!

This is the kids with there candy bunny teeth in. They looked so funny to me with them in.

This is a picture of a flower that Will's aunt Beverly gave us when his grandaddy past away last year. The blooms are huge!
I was taking the picture so I did not get in it. Next time I will have to do like you, Tina, and set a timer so people will know that I exist. Until next time don't forget the true reason for Easter! "He Is Alive"
