What if all the Raindrops were Lemondrops and Gumdrops....

...Well no lemondrops but pretty close. I have another verse to this song exclusively for the town we live in, but I will refrain from adding it as it might sour the spirit of this blog entry ;).

Easter weekend! It was the best of times...it was the worst of times. My parents took us to Andrew Lloyed Weber's CATS Friday night, it was great! Our oldest son was in awe of the theatrics. The following morning we enjoyed conference and some Easter celebrating with a windy but sunny egg hunt at our neighbors. Sunday the yolk broke and all came tumbling down through the entire week with a stomach virus. We parents finished off the week having this flu together...our poor kids.  The best quotes over the weekend were: Gage rattling every egg he found and chanting, "Ra-ka-ka-kah, Rah-ka-kah!" and Cole exclaiming upon bursting an egg open and sending miniature rabbit cookies everywhere, "Quick! They're hopping away!"

The Great Dane at 10 mo on Easter morning added walking on April 6th to his mad baby skills. He's up to five steps solo now. Today at lunch I noticed a 5th tooth has popped through. Where has my baby gone!!!????  

I should take guesses on what the boys constructed here. Ever since their first football game, as part of my Dad's inaugaration weekend, the boys put on "football" uniforms and play "The Game". This is the staduim of their fans. Mom and Dad were too sick to watch so they had to construct a pretend crowd.

As though no time had past. As though no distance separated. Just good buddy's together for a playdate. (Sigh) We mish you guys!
