Some wonderful friends put together an Easter egg hunt the other day. As soon as Ty realized the eggs had candy in them... he was ripping up that field like a maniac!
He collected three times as many eggs as his sisters and was not happy when I tried to explain the ten egg maximum rule. It's the Egg hunt rules that try to keep it fair. Poor kid! He's not really into fair.
This is Lauren's best friend in all the world. When the two of them get together, the rest of the world falls away and all is right!
My two little reds with all their booty!
And the candy fest begins! There are times when I think my kids eat their body weight in candy daily. People give it to them wherever we go. We need t-shirts that read Please don't feed the kids! And so.. as the "no fun candy nazi mommy", I give them one day until it all mysteriously disappears. 
Ok, I'm done now. Thanks for listening. Cranky candy attitude aside, it was a beautiful day and we had a lovely time. I just love spring and sunshine and good friends! And candy. It's a love/hate thing with the candy. Truth is, I throw away all the kids gross candy, but I keep the good stuff for my own personal stash. I know, I know.. I need therapy. Or weight watchers. I should stop now. It's late and my filter gets thin. Good night dear friends!

Oh, Katie's poor, poor hair. :)
Candy holidays can be stressful! Especially whe there's a diabetic in the house and we're not used to the abundance. I think you seriously should patent the "please done feed kids" shirt!!!
oh, I wish I had a redhead. Emma's hair is now completely brown, I can't even call it auburn anymore. :(
...and I'd really like to hear about the turmoil of public school. I'm interested. On that topic, recently, when people ask me why I homeschool, I say, "Can you imagine Tom in a parent/teacher conference? He would eat them alive!"
I just want to say that I love Lauren's hair. The cut, the color- gorgeous!
I had so much fun getting pedis and lunch the other day. Thanks again!
