The sun is shining here in Arkansas! Yay! I'm not much of an outdoorsy girl, but I do like sunshine in my windows. :)
I took a lot of Instagrams this week... :)




1-3. Braden went to a birthday party last Friday. They got to play laser tag and do the arcade. He played this ticket game over and over and won 1500 tickets! Crazy. His friend's sister hit the jackpot (it really is kind-of like a slot machine, if you ask me), and won 1000 tickets in one turn. They sat there and waited and waited while the machine spit out all those tickets. It was fun to watch. He got a lot of "prizes" with all those tickets, and picked out one thing just for Cameron -- a pink tiara. Cam LOVES Princess Peach (from the Mario Nintendo games), and he was quite happy with it. Of course, Mommy had to try on the crown too. You may recognize it as my new profile picture. ;)
4. Cameron sat in the "tickle seat."




5-6. Lunch at Panera after our church's Easter Egg hunt - it's always exciting to wait for the buzzer to buzz.
7. "1,2,3, Stare!"
8. Sweet (sometimes) brothers.



9. David sang "He is Risen" with a mens' ensemble at church on Easter Sunday.
10. Cam got to watch Daddy rehearse (he was in the nursery for the service).
11. David made Creamed Eggs on Toast for me for Easter lunch. I was the only one who ate it. The boys don't care for it, and it's not on David's diet. I love it, though! I thought I had posted a recipe, but I'm not finding it now. You basically make a thin white gravy / cream sauce and add some chopped up boiled eggs. We always used the dyed Easter eggs when I was a kid, and sometimes the dye stained through the shells, so the eggs in the cream sauce were pastel colors. :)


12. Happy mail day!! I ordered some super cute stuff from Meg Duerksen's "Whatever" shop.
Can you see the picture? Is it big enough? ;)



13. Braden's school uniforms for next year also came in the mail. Shirts on sale, logo for a penny, and free shipping! Oh, yeah! Braden requested the tie. He likes to look spiffy. :)
14-15. Cameron loves yogurt with blueberries. He made this face and threw his hands up in the air when I said, "Smile like it's your birthday!" Then, I let him take a picture of me. :)
There you go! We've got Braden's first baseball game this weekend, and the weather should be PERFECT for it. What fun stuff do you have planned?

Hi! Visiting from Insta-Friday! I'm an Arkansas girl! Born and raised and still living here! Go Hogs!!! Woo Pig Sooiee (sp?)!!! Love your crown and the Easter lunch, cream egg thing looks yummy! I love Meg Duerksen's blog- everything about her home decor makes me happy! I want to go to her craft weekend so bad! Looks so fun!!! Have a happy friday!
ReplyDeleteMe too! (Arkansas born and raised and want to go to Craft Weekend, that is). Craft Weekend probably won't happen, but a girl can dream. ;)
Deletepopping over from instafriday. we love that ticket machine and panera. both are awesome. that egg thing looks delicous. i think it would be right up my alley but not so much in my diet either! lol.
ReplyDeleteYeah, every time we had it when I was growing up my dad would make some joke about it being "approved by the American Heart Association." It is yummy! :)
