Easter Sunday was a blast. As tradition, we went over to Buddy's brothers house. They made an awesome lunch. Turkey, mashed potatoes, broccoli casserole, croissants, etc. etc. We had a great time, as always. The boys played video games, and Kai and Alyssa played with her new Barbie house. Alyssa is such a girly girl. Towards the end of the afternoon, they had their Easter egg hunt. Aunt Wendy always has so many eggs to hide. As a matter of fact, I hardly buy candy for the kids baskets, because I know that the basket from Aunt Wendy will have enough to last them until Halloween at least.
The Easter Bunny did come to the Lopez house, and brought the usual pink basket for Kai, and the usual green basket for Nachito. Kai's had a lot of hair accesories, make-up and the Core Rhythms excercise videos. Don't ask, I have no idea why she wanted that, but she has been writing down the number from the infamercial for weeks. Nachito is always happy with video games. All in all, it was a great Easter and a great start to Spring. Next on the Calendar, Nachito's First Holly Communion and Alyssa's fourth birthday.

************************************************************************************ I have a little confession to make. I have a hard time letting other people do things. For instance, I feel the need to get the dyes ready for egg coloring. I can not for any reason let the "kids" do it. Kai is old enough already, but I am a control freak and I have to do it. When everything is ready, I want to color eggs too. Is that bad? I act like a kid, and if my egg is in a color, I don't want them to touch it or add another egg, until mine is ready. This year, I tried and finally my brain told me to stay busy with another project, and just let the kids do it. So, you will be happy to know, that Buddy lent me his Kitchen Aid mixer and I baked two pineapple upside down cakes. Yes, I baked!!! It's not quite cooking, but it happened in the kitchen which is a start. And not to toot my own horn or anything, but they actually turned out real good. And, while I baked, the kids were able to color eggs with little interference from me. I think that it was a good start, and maybe next year I will let Kai run the show. Dye and everything.

Oh..and thank you for your comment on my blog about the icky lice! I checked their hair again tonight, and still nothing, so I'm sooo relieved! But, I am thinking of getting my youngest daughters haircut tomorrow. It's really long!
