Happy Easter.... again?








Grammie was reunited with her girls again! The kids always say they love Fridays. Now before Grammie gets a swelled head, remember, Friday is also show & tell day at school so that's also a pretty big deal to look forward to all week.... However, they'll tell you that they love show & tell but that the best part of Friday is when Grammie comes.




No wonder, she totally bribes them!!!!!!!!! :) A couple of months ago, I heard them talking amongst themselves about Grammie coming & one of them asked "I wonder what she's bringing us THIS week????" Horrified, I jumped in and said "Girls! Grammie doesn't have to bring you anything! What would you say if she just came to visit and didn't have any treats!??!?!" Sweetie piped up and nodded her head as she pretended to be talking to her and gave her patronizing answer, "that's ok Grammie".







This week was a little extra special as she brought Easter presents that she'd been saving for them. Between the multiples event, having company, and our various illnesses, we hadn't seen Grammie for a few weeks and the kids were pretty darn excited when she & Max arrived.







I stuck around long enough to check out what goodies the girls were opening up & then headed to the gym.

Murray was in a hockey tournament this weekend so the girls & I went for a scooter ride after supper (well, I walked). What a disaster. Guess what? Scooters don't roll as well on the road as the do the kitchen floor. Completely unacceptable. One by one the scooters got left in the ditch until everyone was walking and then we turned around and went home, collecting the discards on the way! I think the bumpy ground will take some getting used to as they're a bit spoiled by the linoleum! They think they should just be able to glide all the time. Lazy kids. No idea where they get that.... ;)))
