Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!  Yes, I know, another late post.  This Easter was pretty fun.  The weather was absolutely perfect and the kids were VERY cute!  The Easter bunny was really good to them. The girls got matching outfits:
 
 

and Reed got his very first tie.
 
  Boy he was a catch in that thing.

The Easter bunny also left some books for each kid, CJ got the next book in a continuing chapter series that she is really enjoying and she got a new chapter book that is a little more challenging.  I know when she is reading books that are too easy when she finishes them in one day, like the series she's been reading.  She loves them though. They sure have been good chapter books for her to get used to. Avary got two new chapter books from two different series, and Reed got a couple of board books.  And of course, all three got a new stuffed animal.


For dinner we had ham (of course), funeral potatoes, rolls, deviled eggs, salad, and raspberry jello....YUM!!!  Reed LOVED the jello.  :)  For dessert we had strawberry shortcake.  After we picked the ham bone clean, we of course gave it to Jersey which in turn gave her some really bad "disturbances" that would "disturb" her late at night and made her want to go outside.  We were afraid she had an obstruction so we took her to the vet, which in turn left us with a lecture and her feeling better the next day or so.  Every year since we have had her we have given her the ham bone.  This years ham though was extremely fatty and I think that is what gave her an upset tummy.  She's good though and she is now quiet through the night once again.  All in all it was a really good Easter.  The kids had a good day.  Reed especially had fun dumping out all the plastic eggs.
