The Busy Booths

A couple of pictures from the bluebonnets

I had to bribe my kids with ice cream to pose for me. :) They were good sports, though. Think I actually snapped about 75 pictures. They definitely earned their ice cream!

So on Friday Melissa got a runny nose and that night she woke up once during the night. Bad news. She NEVER wakes up unless she's sick or getting sick. I should have expected it, though. I mean, it was a holiday weekend. In case you haven't been reading my blog long, let me explain. My daughter apparently hates holidays. She had RSV her first Christmas and pneumonia her first Easter. She got sick this past Christmas on the 23rd and was doing breathing treatments all throught the holiday. So, naturally, allergies hit her yet again right before her second Easter. Shocker. She had a fever Saturday night so I missed the Easter church service for the second year in a row - ironic, isn't it, since that's the day when more people actually get up and go to church even if they don't regularly? Anyway, she didn't have a fever Sunday so we decided to go ahead with our lunch plans with my family. I was glad we did. We all had a good time. But apparently Melissa doesn't like Easter dresses either. Last year, when she had pneumonia, she threw up all over her dress. This year she fell and got a bloody nose and bled all over it. Poor kiddo, she just can't get a break!

Dyeing eggs. I put them in the bathtub to do it because then the mess just goes down the drain. Easy clean-up. In a couple years Kyler will be too old to let me take pictures of him in his underwear so then we'll probably dye eggs outside! :)
