46/52


 "a portrait of, and occasionally a quote from my children, once a week, every week, in 2015"

Jackson: Sporting a bruised cheek as a result of some road hockey with friends. 
"MOM! Seriously!? It's early November! What's with the Christmas music?"

Lily: Showing off some of her cards that she sold at a craft fair this past weekend. She did very well for herself and hopes to use the money she made "to buy Christmas presents for my family". 

All shots are iPhone this week and boy do the kids look tired. Or is it bad lighting? Or both?! Time to get out the real camera and get outside to get better light. Yikes!!!

Another Happy Easter Weekend

 Another Happy Easter has come and gone.  We celebrated with different family and friends on different days, eating and drinking way beyond what we needed. Sadly no photos from our different suppers and a gathering at the lake but loads of others from our weekend. The kids got FAR TOO MUCH chocolate and treats and we all felt very loved. How I love Easter and the 4 day weekend that comes with it!!! We are blessed and grateful!
^^^Lily made some fantastic Easter cards for everyone^^^
^^^Blossom love^^^





^^^No school on Good Friday so I took (bribed/dragged) the kids to some of my fav spots to take photos. Successful!^^^


^^^The first of many hunts happened Friday in the woods behind my parents home.^^^
^^^Supper at my parents place (also on Good Friday) meant some time with GG. Jackson is as tall as she is now!^^^
 ^^^We went to the annual Community Easter Egg Hunt at Willingdon Beach on Saturday morning.^^^
^^^Considering the very gray skies and low threatening clouds, the hunt was very well attended.^^^
^^^7:30 Sunday morning after the bunny came. Gifts and chocolate - happy kids!^^^
 ^^^This was the first year in a few we dyed eggs. We tried several different methods and are pleased with the results. I can't believe we haven't been doing this every year. Tons of fun and a new tradition.
