More of Easter

We spent Easter with my parents. The kids had a great time, especially since they don 't get to see each other that often. Owen was born the day after we adopted Lee. Hard to believe he is walking and already has a mouth full of teeth! School is out for a week now since it's Spring Break. It's such a nice break for the kids...not so much for me, but I think we will find some fun things to do while they are out.

Easter and my handsome nephews

Ellis is quite talented in the egg finding department. She did a great job, which really frustrated the older kids who were looking as well.

My nephews Oliver and Owen

What a cute smile

Videos

I tried to post these videos today. I didn't have time to sit down and do it all at once, so it feels like it's been an all day project three minutes at a time. I am hoping these are all in the way they are supposed to be, if not, I tried.

All is well, will probably have a few pictures to post by the end of the week. Nice weather here now...down in the 50's! Yahoo.

The light at a recent photo shoot

I was fascinated by the light on Sunday. I had never taken pictures in this park before but found it inspiring.

Random Pictures

This is our God Daughter, and below, her brother. Both just adorable.

One of many many pictures of this pregnant lady. Not sure how she would feel about her face being shown, so profile only for blog.
Again, the hangnail.

Easter party and hangnail

Sweet Eva, assisting me with the kids bath time. I couldn't help but get myself in the background with the tiny little square picture of Trip next to Eva.
This is Ellis showing her "peep" she received for her class Easter party. Does anyone really like peeps? It seemed all of the kids were fascinated, but none really seemed to eat them.
Ellis listening to the Easter story a Grandmother read for the class.
And last, but not least....the hangnail. I have several other pictures of Lee holding up his finger like this, showing his huge injury. Thank goodness for nail clippers.

Where the time goes

Okay, I have written two posts in the past few days and neither one of them went up. Must be some computer issue that I will have to deal with eventually.
Our long absense is do to the flu that spread throuhout our family. That and life alone has kept us tired and busy. These pictures are from a few weeks ago. I couldn't resist taking pictures of the kids in the rain.
We are doing well and just waiting for spring break. I don't think we have any plans, wouldn't it be nice to hop on a plane and go some place spectacular?
I took Lee to a birthday party today of the boy, David, who is pictured with him a few pictures below. David was in the same orphanage as Lee for about a month before we picked up Lee. I'm not sure if there is any memory there of each other for either of them, but since they live in the same general area of the world now (how bizarre is that?) we try to keep them in touch with each other.
Eva took her FCAT tests this week at school, as far as I know they went well. She has been happy not to have homework all week.
My girls are both hanging on me now. Eva reading over my shoulder and Ellis trying to lay over my lap so typing is not very relaxing now. Thought I would at least update.
I will try to post faster next time:)

Second attempt at posting.

I tried to post yesterday, but now I see it didn't go through. If it comes up more than once, sorry!
