Fun, Busy Weekend

It started out early Saturday morning when we decided to get up and go eat breakfast at Italian Market and Grill...YUM! We were pleasantly surprised when we found out all 3 kids got to eat free (we thought we would have to pay for Josh). :) They all loved it! The girls kept asking for more waffles (they were good).

After that, we went to the park and played for quite awhile. We took a walk and the kids found a worm. Josh and Callie refused to touch it. Emma kept pushing it around w/ her finger - it would get stuck and then she'd shake it off. It seems like we only have 1 nature lover on our hands. HA!

We came home, the kids ate a bit of lunch, took a nap and then went back outside to play while Phil mowed.

Sunday was way too busy!

We went to church...as soon as we got home, we ate very quickly and then Josh and I left at 12:30 for a birthday party. We got home at about 3:20, ran inside to get Phil & the girls and left again about 3:40 to go to an Easter Egg Hunt at church.

The kids all had a blast! This was the first year the girls got to hunt for Easter Eggs...they both got quite a basket full! I think there must have been more eggs in their section, because they both got more eggs than Josh. Phil said Josh was fairly aggressive at picking them up (he usually holds back a little). At any rate, there's enough candy to go around!

They also had lots of activities for the kids to do...they decorated Easter Eggs, decorated cupcakes, played a fishing game, etc.

They all wanted popcorn...Josh made his daddy go get his, but not the girls...they both stood in line and got their own (twice)!

Callie gave us a little scare. I thought she was Phil and Phil didn't know he was suppose to have her (he thought she was w/ me). We turned around and she was gone. Luckily, she had just wandered off to the cupcake decorating table and one of the ladies was holding her. She saw Callie wandering around alone and thought she'd just better hold on to her (thank goodness). I knew she couldn't get far - there were too many people there that knew her.

We did a better job at holding on to them.

After a quick supper (after the popcorn, cotton candy and snowcones), the girls went back to the cupcake decorating table (we didn't let them get one up until this point). I gave in and let them decorate their own cupcake. They both took their stick and put icing on their cupcake - it was like they've always been icing their own cakes...go figure. Anyway, when they were finished, they both ate the whole thing!

I'm surprised everyone didn't have a tummyache last night.

We got home around 6:30, put everyone in the tub and into bed!

I'm still tired! I had to come back to work to "rest"!

I'll try to post some pictures tonight!
