Happy Easter!!

I am going to start out by saying Happy Easter to all. It looks like a beautiful day that the lord has made today. I am sad to be stuck at work for most of it. But I can not complain because it is a very nice day at work.

This has been a very busy month but well worth it! The month started out with our Disney cruise. We had an awesome time. The weather was wonderful. The kids had a great time getting autographs from the characters ( yes Jackson loved the characters) and filling up their books. The Disney company has a way of making the kids feel so special. It was a much needed and deserved break from our lives. Well on our cruise we celebrated Maddi's 7Th birthday. My baby is 7 wow, where did the time go?

Soon after getting back we got that snow storm. It was really bad. But thank goodness we were all safe. Maddi had school on Friday when it started and it took them 1 1/2 hours to get her home from school. The roads were so bad then but even worst when it was time for me to go to work on Saturday morning. Mike drove me in or I would have never made it. The snow was fun after the roads got better. what better way to enjoy it then a trip to Kurt and Betty for some sledding. It is the best place ever because it is usually just us. But this time we invited Brookie, Mikey, and Mallory. What a great day we had.

After making it thought the 15 inches of snow it was time to get back to our real lives. I worked that weekend but Mike and Jackson's vacation was over. They went back to work and school on Tuesday. But it also was Jackson's turn for a birthday. He turned 5 on Tuesday March 11TH!!! March is a hard month on good me. We promised him his very own birthday party. He has only had one party of his own and that was his first birthday. It was his turn. So after finally deciding that he wanted a pirate party we had to get stuff together and fast. We decided that Sunday was our day due to another birthday party at the building on Saturday. Uncle Al's, he turned 60!! So Sunday was the big day for the party. It was a few little boys and their sisters for a couple hour of complete chaos. But boy was it fun.

This week we were on spring break. It was a normal week without school. So Mike and I worked and Mamaw and Papaw watched the kids. On Thursday my mom had a heart cath. She has had some chest pain a few weeks earlier and was in the hospital for a few days. The doctors did a heart cath to make sure nothing was wrong. I have to give thanks to god for answered prayers because her heart looked pretty good. A few minor blockages but nothing that they are worried about. We were all worried about the possibility of her having something major wrong.

Well this should give you idea what is happening around here the past month. Well after working on this for awhile I am done. I will close with a few parting pictures. I hope you enjoy them.

Sorry it took so long to publish this.
