Hey so today we went to my friends house for a little Easter party. It was just us, our friend, and another friend. It was fun. The kids had an Easter egg hunt, we had finger food lunch, the kids played games, colored, the kids played hot potato for the first time and they LOVED it! It was so funny watching them!

Emma woke up this morning, throwing up. She was fine for a couple hours and when I got home from the commissary she threw up again, then nothing while at my friends until we were ready to leave and she threw up all over me, thankfully my friend lent me some sweats to wear since my capri's were soaked. Anyways, we got home and she threw up 3 more times. Poor baby just felt awful. After the last time we got her changed, changed our bedding since she'd gotten sick that morning and Chad didn't get it changed. Anyways, we got her in bed, Chad layed with her and I took a shower. She was out by the time I got out. It was the first time today she let Chad do anything with her, all day it was just me. I'm praying she's feeling better in the morning.

Tomorrow is the community Easter Egg Hunt. If it's raining or snowing again, they'll just hand out the eggs. We have lots of laundry to do, and I am  hoping we can get the bedrooms cleaned up, the boys room is a disaster zone and so is ours. I also have to go through the Sunday school material that I'll be teaching Sunday. Sunday when we get home from church I'll be cooking our turkey (just a turkey breast), mashed potatoes, homemade noodles, my mom's stuffing (it's the best!!), home made bread, and corn. I think I'll make some cookies and/or from scratch brownies! ;) We'll do our own little Easter Egg hunt here inside if it's wet out. I'm hoping tomorrow we can get the eggs dyed so it's done and we don't have to deal with that on Sunday too. I want Sunday to be relaxing and enjoyable. Dinner is just going to be us this year, which will be nice. It's the last MAJOR holiday before Chad leaves.

Oh! I don't think I blogged about this, but we have our confirmation for our flight to Ireland! We're flying to Ireland on April 3!! We'll be there for 7 days! We can't wait! A friend of ours sent us two options for the iternary so we'll decide then next week I'll start calling B&B's to make reservations for accomadations, and we'llalso reserve a rental. We're planning on getting a minivan so we have plenty of room for the kids and our luggage.

Well, I need to head to bed. Good night and God bless

Sorry Emma was sick. I hope she feels better soon. Sounds like you guys had a good time. The weather sounds COLD. lol I sure do miss cold though. This year we didn't have much of a winter. IT was 75 degrees most of the winter. Next winter, I'll be in Germany with Adrian and lots of sweaters and blankets. LOL

Take care...
