Spoiled Easter

Growing up in my house, Easter morning our baskets would be at the top of the stairs, and before anyone could get the candy that was lined down the stairs, in EVERY corner, along any ledge, picture, on every piano key, if it had a edge, it had candy! Literallyeverywhere.. It was a race, with 9 kids (more so WOODY) if you wanted any candy you have to fend for yourself and go as fast as you can.

We spent the night before Easter at my parents. We were the only kids in the house.
We woke up in the morning to find one Easter basket at the top of the stairs..
but enough candy for 9 kids. :) My cute Mom was the Easter bunny for a one kid, Kennedy, a 1 year old.She thought it was the best day ever! Candy EVERYWHERE and 3 adults cheering her on to pick it all up and put it in her basket.Danger, upon coming home from church Kennedy found a pile of jellybeans that she hadn't discovered yet.. as she started to choke on the overload of joy, Andrew pulled (pried) 11 jellybeans out (not including the ones that made it down her throat ;) I love celebrating Easter! Its a wonderful holiday, my favorite part is all the Easter songs! Our Savior has done some much for us and I am so grateful for his life, and all his sacrifices for me.
Hope you all had a wonderful Easter!

This is how we do it...

We DO know how to do costumes...

Andrew won 1st place in his work Halloween costume contest!

3 years in a row

2010 2009 2008We go all out...

See that scar on his head? Yes, it is cool, and we did it with rubber cement. We also did it on his arms, and mine (when we were practicing... You'll want to know that for later) SO... since I am a huge fan of dressing up for Halloween I went as the bride of Frankenstein to dinner with him that night. He was ALL OUT dressed up so I did my hair, and thought, hmm... since she has a scar going from ear to ear under her neck I will do the same thing... since the rubber cement looks good on Andrew, I will do it too.

I put it on.. a few minutes later it starts to tingle, then burn. So I call Andrew,".. did yours burn and tingle this bad?" He said that it kinda had so I left it on for a few more minutes.

Eventually I couldn't take it anymore so I took it off..

My neck was red and a little burnt, but I thought for sure it would go away, no biggie.

(This is the only picture we took that night, kinda hard to see..I know)

NOT THE CASE- Note to self. DO NOT PUT RUBBER CEMENT ON YOUR NECK!

Your skin is very very very tender! IT WILL BURN IT OFF!
and YES this would ONLY HAPPEN TO ME :)

So now that you know the story you won't see me and think I attempted suicide. I promise, it's not a rope burn. And no, Andrew didn't try to strangle me :)
Although I have enjoyed peoples reactions upon seeing me at the store, or at church..

Good news is, today when I woke up it looked SO SO SO much BETTER. SEE!!

There is hope that I won't have a nasty scar forever!

So we DO know how to make Halloween last :)

Milk Puddles

So after a full day of shopping at many different stores I am finally home, hurrying in so I can change Kennedy’s diaper, and get dinner started before Andrew gets home. One of the lovely things about not having a garage and living on the second floor is that there are many trips up the stairs to bring in your groceries. So I always try to load as much as I can to save my trips. Normal, right? Anyway, as I am stacking up the boxes I am going to bring in I have an gap… so using my tetris skills I fill the gap with a gallon of milk. Go me! As you can guess I am walking up the stairs and about 10 steps up the milk falls right over my shoulder... yes, milk everywhere I can just hear the carton brake, splashing and rolling down the stairs! Oh Joy! Well… When I went back down to clean it up, there where milk splashes all down the side of the building, and about 3 big puddles of milk under the stairs! How do you clean up milk outside?! Ehh.. Well it did make for a good laugh and now that I cleaned it all up I bet all the neighbors are wondering why the cement and stairs are mopped… :)
