Easter 2009

We had a very quiet and peaceful Easter at home. It was the 1st Easter at home, by ourselves in several years. It was not too bad, but I do enjoy being around family more on big Holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. The reason for staying home this year was due to the weather. It was nasty for a good portion of the day. Therefore, "Easter with the family" will be celebrated next weekend. The kids seemed happy anyway. We got up very early that morning and went to Mass. We were out of the house by 6:45 am in the rain. Mass was at 7:30 and by 9 we were home. The kids played and Cory and I watched movies and washed clothes. O well, not too exciting, but we did have a great Easter dinner. Shelby did the Easter prayer. She enjoys having that role. She prayed so sweetly for her preschool teacher whom had surgery earlier that week on her leg. Then went on with her prayer blessing the food and all her family. We closed the day with Cory going to work that night and the girls in bed.

Moving on, Shelby is having her last appointment today concerning her surgery and hospital stay, a post-op appointment. She is not happy. She does not want to go, can't say that I blame her! But this will finally put a close to that chapter!!

Rhiannon is doing good! School is still going well for her. 

Last week she was complaining about her foot being in pain. We shrugged it off, b/c Rhiannon is VERY dramatic! But after a few days of this "pain" we decided to take her in and see if it was anything. Well, turned out she sprained her foot. Not that big of a deal, she is already fine. All weekend we wore an ace bandage. She wanted to wear it to school today, I think for attention of course! I said no, only b/c she has been running around and acting normal all weekend, and not complaining of pain at all! So, I was the mean one today and did not excuse her from p.e., nor allowed her to wear the ace bandage! :)

Well, coming up in a few days, Cory and I will be married for 10 years!! Wow, 10 years!!

Since we already had our 10 year anniversary vacation for 16 whole days at our presidential suite in a very well known place, where the service was great and the food was not too bad. We are going to have a quiet kid free date, a dinner and maybe a movie this Friday. 

I hope everyone had a blessed Easter weekend. We did and loved every rainy minute of it!
