Watching Chitty Chitty Bang Bang right now until time to get dressed. The back door is wide open soaking up this beautiful morning. Gonna be a wonderful day!

Re: Happy Easter Sunday!

  • Happy Easter to you! That's great that you get to spend Easter with all your wonderful family, especially your brother! :)

    We're headed to my mom's first to see her and my niece and do breakfast and an Easter egg hunt.  Then later to my MIL's to do an Easter BBQ.  I'm hoping this rain clears up that just started.  Figures it's nice all week and today when we have outside activities planned it's rainy.  Such is life, I suppose.

  • I would LOVE an Easter BBQ. I've been wanting homemade BBQ for quite a while now.

  • It's final exam time around here.  =( 

    I'll spend the whole day with the books. 

    Maybe I'll sneak a Peep in there somehow. 
  • Good morning. I'm going to my mom's around 11 because she's having all of her side of the family over. I'm excited to get some good food. 
  • Happy Easter!  We did Easter dinner yesterday with my family, so today I'm lying around doing nothing!

  • Happy Easter..

    I slept in today.. It felt so great.  Now I only wish I has some chocolate milk, but I'm too lazy to go to the store.  Oh well.  I will get some before I go to work.

    Here is a picture of me and my siblings back in the day.

  • Awwwww. That's a sweet picture. I used to have pictures, until a dog I had decided my photo albums were better chew toys than her own toys.

  • Aw Misty that sucks

    Lynda, which one are you?
  • I'm the second from the left.  

    My brothers are twins and my sister is only 13 months younger, but she was so small people thought there was a bigger age difference.

  • Happy Easter! I went and jogged the exercise trail at one of the parks near here, made breakfast, Lucas is catching up on American Dad episodes he missed. We don't have any Easter plans. I don't think I've celebrated Easter in about 4 years.

  • Happy Easter! We also don't really celebrate it. My step mom does but they go to visit her family and I don't know them very well so I don't feel comfortable joining them. I'm really debating in walking to the store to get something for us for breakfast. DH is sleeping and I'm not sure it is a good idea for me to walk by myself. I've not slept almost at all. I had nightmares all night that involved labor or relationship issues. We have friends that are recently separated so its fresh on our minds.

  • Ciara I hate nightmares. I wish I could control my dreams. 

    I just found my peacoat that was laying in my closet floor and it smells like cat pee. Man, I love my cats. Now I have to take it to the dry cleaners. But I guess it was my fault that it was on the floor.
  • Good Morning and Happy Easter!

    We aren't really doing much today. My mom and dad are having steak for dinner...yumm. Other than that it is a lazy day around here!

  • Those peanut butter eggs are the only Easter candy I buy!  FI ate the last one yesterday, though.

  • Morning!! We had a big Easter meal yesterday and on our way-out the door I asked H what we're doing today he said " Jack and Shiit" I agree. I'm going to have to do some laundry and we need to come up with a menu for the week, but other than that I hope we don't do anything.
  • We ended up buying a 7 pd ham. I'm going to score it, shove in cloves, rub with brown sugar and pour coke over it.

  • You think? It was Tide's suggestion. Well, she suggested root beer and I don't like that. Then Squirrly suggested coke. I hope it works out!

  • Happy Easter!

    H and I went to church last night. I can't believe we slept this late. Unfortunately, our friend canceled on us for dinner tonight, so we are on our own. We may just do a late brunch and call it a day. I do have some ham slices and could make the green bean casserole, but we'll see. I am just not going out to the store today for sure.

    Today is my Dad's birthday so I will be making a phone call to him and my Grandma.
  • Definitely the coke. I don't like root beer :-) I've heard that coke on ham is a good move. I think the only thing I'd be scared of us the cloves, but I've never had ham with cloves so that's why. You never know until you try! H just put "happy zombie jesus day!" as his FB status not 5 minutes ago and he just got a nasty text from some girl he USED to work with saying Jesus wasn't a zombie and yada yada. It's actually kinda funny
  • My dad puts cloves, so I know I'll like it. Assuming I pick them all out afterwards. It sucks biting into one. But they give it a nice...spicy (not heat) flavor.

  • Well if you like it then go for it! I bet it will be awesome. Ciara - if you're still here, I can't believe Big E hasn't made his debut yet. You're a better woman than I am. I'm pretty sure I'd be going crazy.
  • Happy Easter to everyone! If you don't celebrate it, at least enjoy the quietness on a day where everyone else is doing soemthing and get some spring cleaning done or go for a walk in a park!

  • Good morning/happy Easter! I'm relaxing at FILs house and then J and I are going to check out a house his friend wants to rent out,. We probably wouldn't have to pay more than $400 a month for rent for a 3 bed 2 bath house!!! The price alone makes me super excited to see it. Then later this afternoon we are going to my grandparents for easter dinner. If any of you are my friend on fb, check out the latest 3 tagged pictures of me--- my friend just took our e pics yesterday and posted 3 teaser pics!! I love them. I will AW more here once we get them :)

  • Also, Ciara, I'm hoping for an easter baby Edmund!!

  • Happy Easter everyone!!!

    LDY- That is an awesome status but I can imagine what kind of nasty comments I would get!!! :)

    LVB- One time my H tried it with Dr.Pepper, I know it sounds weird but it was real good!

    Ciara- I know how you feel, days after we got engaged our best friends separated. It was really hard for me to even be happy throughout our engagement since we were always so sad for them. They are finally almost done with the divorce and now it seems they are dating again!! Who knows what will happen with that!

    I called my mom this morning to see if she had an Easter basket for me and of course she said no. A girl can dream right? :)

    I think it might be date day for H and I, we have been having Sunday dates the past few weeks and its nice. We might go to the dollar theater, lunch, and probably the grocery store. Good day for us!
