Sunday always feels like it is going in fast forward when we take the whole family out to church. Rush rush rush but at least all 4 kids looked more than presentable. Though I was unable to get a good picture of Trinity in her new dress from Grandma – that paper bag had cereal in it and she was very reticent about letting it go!
Cereal in Tow (had no other small container in the van to take into the church lol)
Gavin far right
The twins are one week away from their Palm Sunday service where they are VERY excited about the chance to sing the special song they have learned for the service. Then the following Sunday we are off to Grandma’s for Easter service (at the church all 3 boys were baptized at and Ken and I were married in). I have plans to dye Easter eggs both here at home and at my mom’s. We are trying to decide if we want to do an Easter egg candy hunt or a treasure hunt here at home. Last year we hid candy in the basement for the kids to find (with the den Otter two) but with Alan’s LAN party next weekend there is no time to plan anything with them so it will just be our family. Last year we had to do it in the basement but with the snow melting and the weather turning quite nice we may be able to have our event in the backyard! To keep costs down I am hoping to get the candy or the special toy at Dollarama. So this week we have to make a trip over there to make the final decision.
The upcoming week is a rather boring one really. I would like to get the whole family out to the local nature centre and maybe take a nice walk to a gas station a few blocks away, but the majority of our time will be spent with the print outs for Spring, crafts, and giving Ken the time he needs to get his stuff done. OH and contacting BANK in regards to the fixing of THEIR mistakes. (fun fun)
Yesterday we had a special treat – one the boys had been waiting an age to have – the Meatball store for lunch! We took Sean with us this time and everyone had their fill. Of course we had to go through the store to get out again and picked up the usual batteries and this time a new plant. One I am going to have to re-pot soon I am sure. We also stopped in at Michaels so I could replace my markers. I use them to make signs and things for the boys for their schooling and my box were well over 3 years old and drying out.
Big girl at Ikea!
I am very excited with the way things are going… I plan on calling Walmart to order new contacts – I made my goal with commissions and working on surveys! That is just such a confidence boost! So keep checking back, soon we should have the new patterns up as well!!
Baby bump!
