EASTER LAUNDRY

For as many Easter baskets and Easter eggs we have here the pile of towels and sheets over shadows all. How I can be doing 5 loads of laundry a day since Monday and still have a pile the size of Mt. Everest ? Given the fact that my dryer is taking 2 cycles to actually produce DRY clothes this is a Herculean task. But I wouldn't trade it for the world !

Easter week was, in the words of miss Kaelin, age 6, "THE BEST WEEK EVER !"  Kaelin was heard to say this several times during the week she and her family were here and I have to agree with her.
We started the party the Sunday before Easter when Kaelin, Finn and parents arrived at the air port with Grandma so excited I could nearly contain myself. We proceeded to have a great week of pampering, beach, pool, eating, a tea party for the girls, a visit to the Easter bunny at the mall and fun fun fun ! On Good Friday Kent drove up with the twins and Smith so that Smith could spend the weekend at Grand ma's with his cousins. Finn was more excited than a puppy with a squeaky toy. Finn and Smith ran and played with Kaelin joining in.  We went to an Easter Egg Hunt at a neighborhood church on Saturday and all the kids and grown-ups had a wonderful time. Well done CHURCH OF THE LIVING OAKS! Best Easter Egg Hunt EVER ! (Once again, quoting Kaelin!)  WE colored eggs with shaving cream and food coloring and that was more fun than any egg dying I have ever done. We also all wet our pants when Grand pa took the colored shaving cream and smeared it all over his face. Not that he looked THAT funny but the panic of realizing it would stain his face green cracked us all up! Well done grand pa. That green ear was hardly noticeable at Easter Sunday mass !

Sad to say everyone left Sunday afternoon and left grand ma and grand pa in a state of exhaustion and shear joy. It was a FANTASTIC week.    Lets do it again . . . . NEXT YEAR !
