Spectacular Superlong Saturday Post

Will have to wait until tomorrow!! We got home from the Easter Vigil, tucked the girls in to bed and had some chocolate!! (So bad, I know) and I am tired! We had a great day and I have pictures to prove it! So I promise I'll post on Sunday and do a recap of our Spectacular Saturday!!

Happy Easter to all!

Peace,

Friday, Good Friday

It's Good Friday and this is the girls first Easter! Oh such explaining to do!

Why is it Good Friday when Jesus dies?
Will he come back from the sky on Easter?
What is the last supper?
The list goes on and on, and I'm sure as we enter and leave the vigil tomorrow night, we will encounter more questions!!

I'm thankful that my girls know about Jesus, have some understanding, are curious and want to know. It's hard to explain at times, but we try.

Frightenly Early on Friday

So, guess what I'm doing?? Still cleaning my 'study/office' area! WooHoo!!

Getting ready to go to bed!! This one is for you KD! No icky early morning emails!

Thrilling Thursday

Sorry, no real pictures to post about todays events!! So the "thrilling" event of the day is that I cleaned my 'study/office' area!! WOW, I know you are thinking, "So what, she cleaned her study/office area!! Whoopie!!!! Well, I have come to realize that there are lots of things that take a back seat when you have kids! And that is balancing the checkbook and being anal about other things in your life that you used to have time for!! So, I'm still adjusting!! And that's OK!! Yes, I'm talking to myself!! And there are days for that too!!

So I actually vacuumed my carpet and rearranged and you can see the bottom of my desk!! It's a really cool thing! REALLY!! REALLY COOL!!

So now, it's balancing the checkbook!! I'm just happy I'm not as behind as I was yesterday :-) HA!

Well, that's all for now folks!! Until Friday!!

Wild Wednesday

So I'm a little late!! So here is the picture of the day! Mommy with both Kidist and Bayat and of course our beloved dog, Fenric! Who just loves when my hair goes in a ponytail and the running shoes come out!!
Since the weather has been trying to be nice, Fenric and I try to run a few times a week. Well, the girls are wanting to go too! But they can't keep up with the dynamic duo (ha ha), so I've been taking Fenric first and then coming home, catching my breath and then running about 1 mile with the girls! At a much slower pace, but we get it done :-)

So Wednesday while getting ready, it was all about the fashion. Mind you, not for me but for the girls. As you can see, I don't really mind what I wear running as I take into consideration weather, wind, temperature, etc. But the girls have to find clothes that match my clothes, so it was finding brown pants and an orange shirt!! That was almost tricky, but we were successful in finding them the 'proper' running gear!! Brown pants with an orange shirt! So when summer comes, they will have to find different clothes.

So for the record, the girls ran approximately 1.2 miles with me yesterday!! Watch out for the Summer Olympics come 2020!! My girls will be ready!

Terrific Tuesday!

Good Morning ~

This week is our Spring Break week so the girls and I are home all week. So each day I thought we could post. . Actually I can get caught up. I downloaded pictures and everything.

SO. . . . . .
I've asked the girls what they want to say on the blog today and Kidist would like to tell everyone that it is almost Easter. Bayat wants to tell everyone to have fun with their family and to have a good day!

Good Bye Winter Hello. . . . .

SPRING!!

Warm weather, anything that looks like, smells like or even just resembles a little bit of spring would be welcome right about now!!

WE HAD SNOW YESTERDAY! No accumulation, but still!! Taxes are almost due!! It's April, shouldn't it be raining and in the 50's. . . . . .

So I've had the snowmen up for quite a while. WHY?? Well, it's Wisconsin and it's still cold, and has been cold forever. Well at least that's what it seems like!! So, last weekend, I told myself I would finish the "bunnies" and have it hanging up by Palm Sunday!! And before midnight last night, it was hanging where the snowmen have taken residence for the past 5 months!! YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

It at least has some hints of spring!! (And it's one more project I can check off the list!)
