We had a few friends over for a potluck Easter feast. It was so delicious! We ate until we were overful and then we played an epic game of Settlers of Catan. I'm still hurting over the seven wheat Mel monopolized from me.
We filled a dozen eggs for Holly on Saturday and let her find them. She LOVED the candy and ate it as fast as she possibly could. We didn't tell her about the last egg on the bookshelf because we felt she had downed enough candy. A little while later she spotted it and held it up with an expression that saide, "look what I found!" Apparently, she ate too much candy because sometime that night it all came back up.
You HAVE to watch this video. Watching it really put my day into perspective big time. I wish I had been this good as a youth. I'm so impressed. And the video has given me a new view on running with my girls in a stroller. I can do it!
How did this video make you feel? Did you cry like I did? Do you feel empowered? Ready to do some good?
Greta's Nana (Conor's Mom) made her blessing dress. It's a gorgeous, simple cotton dress - I really like it! It feels etheral yet a bit organic too. Greta looks darling in it. I love her in white, on white with her dark hair - she just pops! I finally took some photos of Greta in her dress today. I know I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Greta is so pretty! If you'd like to view more photos of Greta in her dress, visit my flickr photostream.
