Easter Sunday

 Easter Sunday didn't turn out exactly how we planned.  It stormed the night before, and a tree in the backyard behind our house snapped and fell on the power line.  We lost power some time in the night, and it stayed off all day long.  Hubs and I each put in a few work orders to Oncor, but because of the damange the storm had done all over DFW they were in "disaster mode."  We had planned to go to church, eat lunch with my mom, and have a get together at our house for James' side of the family.  ...that didn't happen.  Instead we went to iHop (I had wet hair, fun) and took a trip to Walmart.  We came home so Mins could take a nap, and I napped as well.  I can't tell you how long it has been since I've done that.  When Kathryn woke up we took her outside to see her Easter basket.  She was pretty excited about her flash light and the easter eggs.  We moved our get together to James' aunt's house.  We had an Easter egg hunt and grilled hamburgers and hot dogs.  It was fun and Mini had a blast playing with her cousins.  By the time we got home our power was back on (YAY!) so I was able to give K a bath.  The Easter bunny brought her crayons for the tub, and she absolutely loved them.  Too much in fact, because she cried as soon as I pulled her from the tub.  :)  All in all it was a good day and a great weekend.  Hope you enjoy the pictures!
