easter weekend

im still trying to play catch up from last weekend, now that is already this weekend! my parents, sister and bf, and brother and his family all came to town last weekend for easter. it was the first time seeing my parents since my divorce and i had been sort of aching to see them. the kids were ecstatic about having family around all the time.....between their cousins, grandma and grandpa and easter candy they couldn't have been happier.

over the weekend we went to basha pool (maybe the best thing ever....$1 for kids, 4 miles from my house, a mini water park) had a slumber party, colored easter eggs, played with cousins, went to scottsdale quarter, went bowling with my sis, went out to lunch, got a mani/pedi, and ended with easter day at my brothers.


it was so nice to see my family and get some extra needed love. :)

i totally cried when i had to say goodbye to my sister.

i wish i lived by at least one of my sisters.

i am lucky though to live right down the street from my brother and his 6 kids and have them be my adopted family.


happy easter!

I know how you feel about living close to your sisters. I hate living so far from mine! It totally makes you long for the days when you'd fight over clothes, well, almost. :) You're beautiful Jilly.

Oh man, i just got sad again. I loved being there for the weekend, and wish we lived closer too. I wish all four of us lived close. Keep your head up, you're loved by so many people, especially your family. and keep loving those two little kiddos until it hurts!
