Feel free to copy and paste so you can have this recipe for yourself. I hope anyone who tries this enjoys it as much as I did. It was delicious. To my dear friends Sunny and Becky...I miss our cook group. If any of you have good recipes send them my way, it seems like I have slim pickins these days.

A few more pics from this morning...

The Maile and Scoresby families teaming up for some Easter Fun!

Egg Hunting Fun

We had a lot of fun this morning. A pretty low key easter egg hunt, just my style! Cici was perfectly content cruising around with her one egg, while Max and his friends Emme and Grace had a great time egg hunting! Some of my pics didn't turn out , but the kids were so cute! The fun has just begun...we plan on dying eggs later this afternoon.

peace of mind

So, I just have to say that the best peace of mind you can have while being pregnant is hearing that healthy heartbeat! I love that sound. Especially right now, I am 16 weeks so the baby isn't totally moving all the time yet, but I am also feeling much better. So really the only peace of mind I have right now is to hear that little heart beat, everything sounded good today. I am getting excited to find out what it is in 4 weeks! Babies really are such little heaven sent miracles.

Craving Summer

So Max tells me on almost a daily basis now that he wishes it was summer! He definitely gets that from me...I love warm weather! So the other day my friend Mary and I cleared a path on the basketball court for the kids to ride their bikes. They had a blast even though it was still pretty chilly...when they were all through we had hot chocolate to warm us up! To add to this story, it ended up snowing the very next day and covered all of our hard work with a few inches of snow again.

my little police officer

So the other day the kids and I were driving back into Logan from Salt Lake and I was so ready to be home! There is a random light as you come into Logan and I was going around 55 and I hit that awkward moment where you hesitate if you should go or not if it turns yellow. So anyway, I hit my brakes...but then decided to go so I didn't kill my brakes. All of the sudden I hear, "Mom don't you know you need to slow down...that is what yellow means SLOW DOWN!" I'm glad Max keeps me in check!

And We're Back!

YEA...I'm finally getting around to fixing my blog mistakes! I'll be posting new pics and updates this weekend!
