I hate April's Fools Day and I'm beginning to not be too fond of Easter either...

We went to California and visited my aunt and uncle, it was SO SO SO nice to get away.  They are so good to us.  I love seeing them, the camera I had was dead, so NO pictures, I'm being a horrible mom with the lack of pictures lately.


Anyway back to my original reasons for posting.  I HATE April Fools Day, people do and say DUMB things all in the name of April 1st, stupid. 

So Easter, it totally snuck up on me, I didn't realize it was this Sunday until last week, after I had set up a sleep over with my oldest son's friend, and then his mom had to cancel because they have family plans.....  DUH!  So have I done one thing for it this year?? NOPE, am I going to? I dunno...... The hubby doesn't seem too keen on dying eggs and getting baskets for the boys.  Growing up,  I got spoiled on every holiday, I mean EVERY holiday, so its been really tough to try to find balance between me and my husband over EVERY holiday (including birthdays).  And why isn't there a set day for Easter?  Like Thanksgiving is always the 3rd Thursday.  But Easter?? Nope, it just seems to jump all around April....?    I would like to make it into more of a spiritual holiday, but how does one go about that??  And still have a little bit of the bunny thrown in there too........

I had to laugh about the April Fool's thing that Gmail did this year. Apparently nobody had access to vowels for awhile. LOL

Easter sort of snuck up on us this year, too. Our oldest had her birthday this week, so we'll be celebrating it on Easter Sunday...with Chinese food. LOL. It won't be a typical Easter, but it will be fun. :) Hoping next year will be more conducive to going to church on Easter and a home-cooked meal.

Glad you got a chance to get away! How are you feeling?

I know, Easter has totally caught me off guard.
I think that we are going to give each of our kids a picture of Jesus to put up in their room...along with some candy. (Real creative, I know.)
Anyway....love you I hope you are doing well!!
