Before

You can sort of see the wall.

Pink Grapefruits from our neighbors.

Thanks Chad for being our first guest in our guest bedroom!

Thanks Family

Thank you for getting rid of the ridiculous

Where is my someone?

This is what my two year old friend said this morning. She was on one side of a teeter-totter and was yelling for someone to go on the other side. I yelled out, "Will someone ride with 'Sara'?" I started doing something else, when I heard her yell in frustration, "WHERE IS MY SOMEONE?"
This morning I woke up from a really bad dream and turned to my side and there was an empty spot and in "Sara's" words, wondered "where was my someone."
My someone is in Oregon and I miss him.

Easter Morning--Tradition #2

#2: Annual Easter Egg Hunt @ Great Grandma Henry's

Too heavy Henry?

Our little Love

Hey, who made that egg?

Turn around Henry...there is one behind you

I don't know what worries me more--Henry eating the egg with the shell on OR Zach's face?

I am pretty sure that Henry and Zane gathered the most EGGS

Easter Party

40 dyed eggs 60 plastic eggs with surprises inside  19 homemade easter baskets  1 bunny kiss 18 two-year-olds and one big egg hunt to make for a great Easter Party.  

A little stressful for the teacher, but always worth the chaos and crankiness. A small reminder of what was done for me over 2000 years ago.  Thank you Jesus for being the ultimate teacher and making the ultimate sacrifice for me the ultimate 2 year old.   

Work in Progress

Here is a tour of our house for those of you out-of-staters.  We are still opening boxes and putting things away mostly after the Henry Boy goes to bed.

The Office

Eat In Dining Room (I have to think of a paint color for the bay window area)

Spare Bedroom

Henry's Bedroom

Henry's monkey bathroom

Yes, those are dolphins in our master bath and no, we did not do that handy-work.  Sick.  

So that is most of the house.  I tried to take a picture of the wall I just painted today, but none of the wall colors came out in the other pictures, so later when I can take more time.  I am not very bold when it comes to my surroundings.  I have never done any of this before...I have never had a house before.  It will be an interesting adventure.
