Easter Party

We had a full Easter Weekend.  It started Saturday morning with a Egg Dying party at our friend Sara and Cambree's house.  Sara is super creative and comes up with such fun ideas!  She had each of us bring our own eggs and some finger food for lunch.  The girls were SO excited!!

Brynlee needed a nap and just wondered all over.  Thank goodness for whoever brought Ritz crackers and cheese.  Two of her favs!

Lots of our friends were at the party

They colored some beautiful eggs!


Everyone worked up an appetite and pigged out on all the yummy food!

The kids went outside and played on the go-cart, trampoline and dirt hills.  They all ran around and wore themselves out.  It was a beautiful day!

Brynlee watched the big kids with envy.  One of these days she will run as wild as they do!

Check out Sara's Blog for more cute pictures of the party!

We left Sara's party to go to Protection's Easter Egg hunt at the park.  Brynlee really needed a nap by this time!  She slept for about 10 minutes until we got back to Protection.  Tiny nap makes for a sad baby!  Thank goodness Grandma Candy was there.  Baby B is better for her.  lol




Grandma had to show her a few times what to do but she caught on quickly and was soon grabbing eggs two at a time!

What a pretty bunny that is!  Brynlee was bawling of course!  Thanks for being a good sport Jaymi!

All the kiddos at the park.  The rec did a great job as always putting this on.  We look forward to it each year.  It is so nice that they moved it to the afternoon since the mornings were always so cold.  Then it was home to give Brynlee a real nap!

The weekend was so much fun...I am already looking forward to our party next year! Glad you got to come and next year we will have a big play set and swings for the kids so they don't have to play in the pit, lol!

Colorado Family Trip Day #1

Image
Well I haven't blogged in years, but have missed it so much!  Life is crazy and I want to be able to look back at all the fun we have had.  Last week, we headed to the mountains in Cuchara, CO.  We have vacationed with Joe's family to this tiny town since Molly was our only Murphy grandkid (now there are 8!). We left early Wednesday morning and we are beyond thankful that we have such great little travelers!  We made it 4 hours with NO stops.  That's amazing for all of us! Everyone beat us out there.  So we had a warm welcome from Doug, Ben & Tracy (Parker -3 and Evie 1) and Grandma Candy and Papa Tom. The cabin has a giant deck that we spend most of our time on.  There is nothing better than a cup of coffee in the morning out in the cool mountain air. Evie is now walking everywhere and smiles all the time.  It took some warming up to us, but we all won her over (until her parents were around, then she wanted them)....

Family Fun Night

Image
  The other night the girls planned a Family Fun night for us!  We played air hockey (I won!), sang karaoke and watched some shows.  I asked the girls what they wanted to eat at the Family Fun night.  They said Hot Wings!   Lol.  Our neighbors (Dale Family Farms) sells their beef, pork and chicken from their shop at the farm.  It's so convenient to run down the road and get some wings.  Joe seasons them up with some olive oil and seasoning salt.  Grills them and dips them a few times in a mixture of Frank's Wing Sauce and butter.   I finish them under the broiler to crisp up the skin.  The wings we get at DFF are big and meaty!   I roasted some potatoes and cut up some fruit to go with our hot wings.  I should say that they are not too spicy at all.  It's always fun to eat downstairs since I'm a stickler for only eating at the dining room table or at the bar! It is fun that the girls still enjoy our company! I know th...
