A couple of weeks ago we attended a charity event with some friends.
With my sweet friend, Kim.
Tony Evans was the guest speaker. Great message!
Some of the girls.....

We had game night last weekend and got to play their new game called Stix and Stones. You choose a word from the card and then you have to create the clues out of the little "sticks and stones" to get your team mate to guess the correct answer.
Somehow my boys can turn any picture into "poop." Here is Cooper's plunger with poop at the bottom. Good times.

We are enjoying the parks right now. Before it's nine hundred degrees too hot to get out.
Cooper checking out the new zip line they built at the park.
Playing catch.

Getting those eggs ready for Easter.

Shawn and I have been trying to walk some in the mornings after we take the boys to school. Again, enjoying the weather before its too hot to enjoy. Such a pretty view on this trail.
Makes me laugh. Our view on our walking trail.

So I've been dealing with a pretty severe case of adult eczema lately. I've never had eczema but it's taken over my body- especially my face and neck lately. I'm starting some NAET treatments (like we did for Cooper's allergies) to see if I can get to the root of the issue. Allergy shots and meds only mask the symptoms. I need to know what is causing this. My dr says some of it may be stress and emotions. She feels that this is a result of Jason's death.....just now coming up. Awesome. I think part of it is diet- something in my food is messing with me.
I'm getting acupuncture to work on some things. I tested bad for eggs and chicken last week so thankfully we removed that allergy. I head back today for another session. I have to work through all of them until we find the cause.
I decided to do a 3 day juice cleanse last week to see if food was bother me. I survived and felt that my face was clearing up. Then on Sat we ate Mexican food with Shawn's family and I"m a complete wreck again. Ugh.
********************************
I planned on skipping the Easter bunny this year. Sniff Sniff. But, our church had one and there was no line and it was free. Okay, next year no bunny pictures........ ha!
With their coveted chocolate Easter bunnies. Did I mention that my boys had never had a chocolate Easter bunny until Shawn came into the picture. Now, its a tradition and HE picks them out each year.
Silly boy!
I've always tried to fill their baskets with practical things they need- bathing suit, goggles, flip flops, pajamas.....and then one toy. They each got some needed items and one Lego kit.
Easter 2015

This cracked me up. We went into the new REI store near us. The boys found a spot to sit and played their ipads the entire time. How in the world did our parents shop with us when we were little?
