HAPPY EASTER! Had another busy (and early) day today. Moira woke us up at 715, totally thrilled that the Easter Bunny left her "Shrek" in her basket. We don't do candy because of Olivia's allergies, especially since it looks like chocolate is also a problem for her. Poor damn kid. Got them all dressed up in their Easter dresses ::sigh:: gorgeous! Paul went to church with Moira while Olivia and I stopped back at my inlaws place to pick up some stuff we left there last night. Then, Olivia and I visited my Dad and StepMom. My step sister, her husband, and their daughter were also there. Paul and Moira met us there after they got out of church. The girls had so much fun playing. Around 2pm, we all headed to my Mom's place. She made a huge dinner and we ate around 330pm. My Mom got sick later in the evening and had to go lay down. By 7pm, I sent Paul and the girls home and my brother and I finished cleaning up the remains of the dinner dishes, etc. Mom was so upset she got sick so we cuddled and chatted for a while. She felt better around 8pm and managed to get up and sit for a while. Paul called me from his cell phone. A house around the corner from us caught fire. It looks like there was a lot of damage. Geez - those poor people. That really sucks.

This will be a tough Easter this year. The first Easter with Nana gone. She always made a HUGE Polish dinner. Kielbasa, pierogies, pickled beets, saurkraut, rolls, home made pies ::sigh:: I miss her.

Made it home in one piece and got the kids right into bed. Let me tell you, the turkey was DELISH! Yummy! I made an apple pie a little while ago to bring to my Mom's tomorrow. Turkey dinner there too! "Singing in the Rain" is on TV now ::sigh:: LOVE Gene Kelly and Donald O'Connor. I also caught the second half of "Easter Parade" with Fred Astaire and Judy Garland. Gosh - they don't make MOVIE stars anymore, do they? Not *real* stars anyway.. in my opinion.

Ok - the link for Irish Turkey should be working now! Ok - I really have to leave! BYE!

We are off to my inlaws for Irish Turkey Yummy! Tata for now

:::groan::: Why am I awake? I'll give you a hint... 2 rugrats... Oy.

Isn't he cute?

I just had a fun chat with Shelley and her hubby Scott. They are 2 wild and crazy teachers! Hope you have fun out tonight!

Good evening! I *just* turned the computer on a few minutes ago. Super busy day. Last night we took the girls to see the Easter Bunny.. Oh my gosh, it was so cute. I will post the pic soon. We stopped at Burger King for dinner and wandered around the mall for a while. Stopped at B.Daltons and bought the girls some books. Of course, they weren't very cooperative so Paul and I just got books for them, nothing for us ::sniffle:: The girls were so excited to see such a HUGE moon last night! Gosh, it was gorgeous! I kept waiting to see ET and Elliot fly in front of it ::heehee:: Today, around 11am, I took the girls out for a walk/bike ride. Paul had the day off and was working in our bathroom, patching the wall. Moira was riding her bike and Olivia was running after her. Up and back.. up and back. Nick, one of the kids on the block, came out to play with Moira. So, the 2 of them were riding their bikes up and back. It was so cute. I brought Olivia back home around 1245 and Paul took her out back to play on the swings. I walked back up and chatted with the other Mommies on the block. Came BACK home around 130 and made lunch for the 3 of us. Moira stayed at Nick's house. Olivia was SO pooped that she went right in for her nap after lunch. That's when Paul and I got a LOT of yard work done. It was such a nice day and we really put it to good use. Needless to say, we are pooped too! Paul got Moira around 445 and we ate dinner early. The kids got the meds, a quick bath and I put on "The Emperor's New Groove" and made popcorn. They were actually QUIET and mellow. Moira kep yawning! LOL! They were both in bed by 820pm! Woohoo! Tomorrow we will be eating an early Easter dinner at my inlaws place. We will be there most of the day. I still have to make chocolates to bring over. I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday weekend!

Ok - I have been corrected. The autograph below is NOT Erin aka Gigglechick. It was from ANOTHER Erin. Now - THIS autograph SHOULD be Ms Gigglechick:


And - by the way Erin, the note you snail mailed me was addressed to "Kate" not "Katie" ::teehee::

Any Steve Burns fans out there? I found THIS link and this on Melanie's blog. He was SO darn cute! Look at him - just so cuddly!


LOL! Now - well - let's just say he looks a little .... different now. For those of you who don't know who he is, click here.

Anyone out there have autograph books when they were kids? I found mine and Erin (of Gigglechick.com fame) had signed mine. Must have been back in 1982 and we we heading into the 7th grade. Check it out below:

I am taking the girls to get their picture taken with the Easter Bunny tomorrow after Moira gets off the bus. Then, off to McD's for dinner. Ahhhh - the life.

Dudley Moore and Milton Berle So sad. RIP guys.

Paul just installed a 30GB hard drive! Wooohoooo! I had a measley 6GB before that was almost full! Niw - I am off to add some more stuff to my drive..

YAY! My comments are back!

And.. where the heck are my comments? Arrgghh!

Busy day today... have last Web Marketing class tonight. Luckily I have Friday off from school and I start back up on Wednesday. I guess I should buy my book! LOL! I will chat more later!
