Yes, it's a Quarterly Update...try not to faint.

I love when Wills dresses himself.



I'm pretty sure he's wearing girl pants there...and my pants are too short--we're a good match.


"Mom, look, I'm a chicken!"


"Mom, I'm wiping my sad raindrops." There's no better place to wipe one's tears than on Mother's skirt. This was Easter dinner with Dan's whole family plus my parents and Bonnie's family and her in-laws. It was CRAZY and people stayed until TEN O'CLOCK, but it was a lot of fun even though it was too much for Will.


Easter morning.



Housekeeping tip: Green tissue instead of the horrendous plastic grass!


Old school cupcakes (very important) and chocolate cake.


Yeah, that finger took advantage of the fact the I was busy taking pictures.


Cowgirl Ann.


Baking night with neighborhood kids: Carmel sauce, cupcakes, tarts, ham and cheese rolls, cake.



They also did Playdoh pictionary: Daniel made a DNA strand and Jane made a bowling lane...the heck?


Another family dinner but with the cousins my age on my mom's side and their families (we get together once a month!). William sits with Bonnie's little girl, Gloria.


Ann's favorite place in the house.


Ann's second favorite place in the house (I'm wearing those same short pants!).


Jane says bananas are the devil.


A good soldier always wears his helmet (or easter bucket) to bed.


Me and my homegirl Susie Wunderli (reunited after fifteen years, thanks to Facebook!). We lived on the same lane growing up and, wow, she is one of the most fun and awesome people I know. Our first date in January and then one just last week.



My Libbygirl.



I don't know if this is a classic homeschool scenario or not, but doing math while holding a baby is pretty awesome. Hey, check out my valentine decorations (don't worry, I took them down well before St. Patrick's Day).


My Balentime's flowers.


THE END!
