Easter 2010

We went camping for Easter with my sister and family and my dad and stepmom. We had such a good time! It was Kylie's first camping trip. It was wonderful to share those 'firsts' with her.

She had never had a s'more before!

The only unhappy part was before we left, I was babysitting for a friend. Her son is Kylie's "boyfriend". They have such a great time together, but they got a little crazy and broke my lamp. Now the lamp is old, but I had just refurbished it a month ago. It went from an ugly gold to a very pretty black. I had actually taken pictures of it and planned to post about it. Guess it's too late now!

Guess I'll just have to buy a new one! :)

P.S. My pictures are out of order! I just can't get the hang of posting pictures. Does anyone know how to get them under the post instead of over?

Happy Valentine's Day!!

We had fun decorating cookies yesterday!! We also took pictures for her cards for her friends at daycare:

Got the idea at Crap I've Made, which got the idea here: http://24-7-365.blogspot.com/2009/02/lavish-me-with-praise.html

Very easy to do and cheaper than buying the character ones at the grocery.

It's been awhile.

So much has happened since the new year, this blog definitely has not been a priority.

First, my precious Maw Maw passed away on January 28th. She was 91 years old. I miss her so much. This picture was taken about 10 years ago.

Kylie and I both have been sick on and off the last couple of weeks. Right now, she has an ear infection and I have a sinus infection. Ugh!

For good news, it is so awesome that the Saints won the Super Bowl!! Who Dat!!! The entire state of Louisiana has been rejoicing ever since last Sunday!

Also, it's Mardi Gras time! Saving that for next post....

Betty Crocker House Party

I was asked by House Party to throw a Betty Crocker cookie mix party and it was so much fun! Thought I'd share some pictures from the party. I received a party package from them that included some cookie mixes, recipes, BC spoons, notepads, and recipe cards to give out to guests!

Ornament wreaths

Saw this over at Somewhat Simple a few weeks ago and finally tried it out. My mom was in town and helped me. Not finished yet, my husband needs to find me some pliers so I can close it. And as you can see, the kid and the dog are fighting for attention as usual.

Louisiana Sneaux!

We only get snow about once every 5 years, so my daughter, 3, had never seen it. We had such a wonderful time this morning running around the backyard. Well, we had a wonderful 10 minutes. She got really cold really fast and wanted to go back inside.

My husband's car last night:

Halloween!!

Kylie's friend J came with us. They had such a good time trick-or-treating!! Kylie was a good witch (she was very serious about the "good" part) and J was a dinasaur.

Later, my MIL came and picked up Kylie and Dave and I went to a costume party. We went as Abby and Gibbs from NCIS.
