Brunch with the easter bunny

The kids went to a brunch with the easter bunny this morning. they had sandwiches and fruit and yougert and chips for the kids to eat and then they got to decorate their hard boiled eggs they brought from home. they also did a few simple crafts. decorating cookies and making bunny ears. they played musical bunny hop chairs but didnt quite understand the object of the game was sit down on a chair when the music stopped. they just kept walking. They had real baby chicks the kids were able to hold that were in different colors. they explained to us that the eggs were injected with dye before the chicks were hatched. It was pretty cool. there were also real bunny rabbits to pet and of course the easter bunny was there to see the kids. The kids had a great time and everyone complimented on miss hailey's new shoes.

Daniel's easter party at preschool

Today Daniel decorated eggs with his friends at preschool and the teacher sent all the kids home with a goody bag and a coloring book. she even gave them pixie stix which im so excited about daniel said they were very good well im sure its a straw of pure sugar. I love when the teacher sugars them up for us for the weekend. He decorated his brown bag he kept all his eggs in. Tomorrow we are going to a brunch with the easter bunny where they get to eat and do crafts with the easter bunny. they are all excited about that. Once this weekend is over it will be time to start teaching them about passover which will begin next month on april 19th and 20th. we are trying to teach them about both their religions. They got an easter book from school called t rex cottontail about a dinosaur who dresses like a bunny and they got a book about passover called this is the matzah. well here are some pics of daniel from preschool today.

Hailey's new lelli kelly shoes

Hailey has been seeing these shoes on a tv commericial for a while now and always mentions them when she sees them on tv. well I had never seen them in any store before and we were having lunch in nordstroms yesterday and went past the kids shoes and daniel actually spotted them first and said "sissy those are the shoes you want for your birthday" . well thank you very much to their grandma and grandpa for purchasing them for miss Hailey she now has lelli kelly shoes and she loves them. These shoes are all different in unique in some way not one pair is alike. she wanted to wear them to bed last night. needless to say she has been wearing them around the house all day today. I had to explain to her she can only wear them out for special occasions like her birthday and not wear them all the time otherwise ill never get another shoe on her. Daniel also got new shoes yesterday that he picked out as well. he is saving them to wear on vacation this summer. he got vans skater shoes with skeletons on them. I think they are ugly but he loves them as well.

Happy St Patrick's Day

The kids were all dressed in their matching green shirts today. Daniel's said mommy's lucky charm and Hailey's said daddy's lucky lady. Daniel said they had corned beef and cabbage at school for lunch today with green jello. Im jealous cause i love corned beef and cabbage and daniel said he didnt eat it cause he didnt like it. Hailey made a leprochan at playgroup today for her craft. Even mommy dressed in her green today so nobody would try to pinch me. here are some pics. Im very excited to announce i took my first mid term for my class last night and scored an 86. Im a third of the way done with my class. hopefully 2 more months and ill get my certificate and then can look for a job for next september when both kids are in preschool.

Dr Seues' Horton Hears A Who

The kids have been very anxious to see this new movie. We are finally going tomorrow. I just hope hailey sits still for it. This will be Haileys 3rd movie her first 2 movies in the theater which was happy feet and surf's up she didnt quite understand the fact that you dont talk during movies and wouldnt shut up. she kept narrating everything that went on in the movies. She has only been to the base movie theater so this will also be her first time in a real movie theater in town. Daniel is great watching movies. he has seen over a dozen in the theaters already and he knows to sit still and not talk during the movies. We went last night to eat at ihop they were serving green eggs and ham and who cakes these mini pancakes with purple and pink cake froasting and a lolipop in the middle in honor of the movie starting. The kids loved it but it did not taste to appetizing to us adults. It was justin's day off and it was great for us to have some quality family time. Im headed out to my mom's night out to play bunco tonight and im really looking forward to a couple hours with the girls. The kids are all excited cause they get to go to our friends Andy and Amanda's house and they love hanging out with them. Daniels spring break is about over but he was telling grandma and grandpa on the phone yesterday that he missed his friends at school and was ready to go back. that's all for now talk to everyone soon.

Spring Art Project At Playgroup

The kids painted birdhouses at playgroup today. It was hailey's first time really painting and she didnt make as big a mess as her brother. It was funny all the older kids normally in preschool on mondays were sitting at one table and all the little ones who are regulars for craft day were at another table which was covered with a tablecloth and the table with the 4 and 5 year olds was the messier table. Daniel is enjoying his spring break. He watched the movie mr magorium's wonder emporium for about the 3rd time today and is very excited to be going to his friends debra and brian's house tomorrow to play while I have a dr appointment. here are some pics from our sucessful craft today.

Spring Break Trip To Chuck E Chesse

We are also going to try to take the kids to see the movie horton hears a who before daniels break is over and he goes back to school. Daniel is very excited to see that movie. He has been learning about dr seus this month in school and even came home friday saying they had green eggs and ham for lunch and wanted me to try to make it at home for him. When he returns from spring break next monday his class is celebrating st patricks day and they will get corned beef and cabbage for lunch and are going to be making 4 leaf clovers.
