HAPPY EASTER

Wow...Easter sure snuck up on us this year! We had a fun week celebrating St. Patrick's Day and Easter all in the same week. Constant party! From green pancakes, leprochans and gold coins to coloring Easter eggs and enjoying a wonderful Easter Sunday... We had a fun time as a family. The highlight for the kids was the egg hunt at the pool. It was the kids first time "diving for eggs" and they had a blast. Tate cracked us up! He stood on the side of the pool adjusting his goggles and flexing his abs waiting for his age group to begin. When they finally blew the whistle he just went flying into the pool. He was all over it... it was so stinkin' funny! Mitch and Rachel are getting to be awesome swimmers. They had their own age categories as well and had so much fun. We were impressed at how the would dive down and get the eggs off the bottom of the pool. So funny. There were a TON of eggs. They were the plastic ones and some were filled with rocks so they would sink to the bottom. The kids would stack them on the sides of the pool and all the parents kept throwing them back in so the fun continued. When the time was up the kids just had to take one egg and turn it in for a bag of candy. It was really organized and a lot of fun! It was a fun Saturday activity for our little swimmers!








We had a fun evening coloring eggs
'EGGCELLENT' job everyone!

MANY "HATS"!

I know... seriously... where have I been??? This last month has flown by. It has been crazy! I've worked 5 full days a week these past three weeks! Wsheeew! A friend of mine went on a humanitarian trip to Bolivia to provide dental hygiene services so I covered at her office while she was gone... besides working my own days.... so it has been busy wearing my many "HATS"! I am so grateful to my cute husband for all of his help during my "March Madness" he has been AWESOME! And to my kids for being so sweet and flexible to this crazy change! I am also VERY lucky to have such wonderful friends who have been so life saving and stepped in to be a second Mom! And to my mom and dad for taking treating the kids to a fun trip to St. Gorgeous while off track! I LOVE you all very much!! So now, I'm looking forward to catching up on things that have been neglected... doing some blogging.... and enjoying the beautiful spring weather we have been having! Not to mention getting a great massage! This ol' dental hygienists' back is not the same as it was ten years ago!! lolol! Anyone know a good masseuse?
