The boys dying Easter eggs- My oldest son is such a "typical male". He's got to be in charge of the T.V. remote even when it's off!
The finished product- one dozen beautifully dyed Easter eggs
My sister-in-law and I getting Easter brunch ready for the family.
The day after Easter, we packed up and headed out to Palm Springs with Kirk's parents. The boys and I are roasting marshmallows in preparation for the perfect S'mores!
I turned off my flash, tried a new setting on my camera and got some candids of the everyone making S'mores. I love the glow of the firelight.
Nana, Papa, and my three boys
The temperature was in the upper 80's. It was so fun to pretend it was summer and run around in our bare feet!
If you look closely you can see the baseball blazing through the blue sky.
Cruisin' around in the golf cart
The kids think I'm the craziest golf cart driver. To be honest, I do kind of like to "floor it" and make them scream like girls! Hee, hee, hee!
I may call PGN tomorrow. The thought of it makes my heart race. I miss Isabella so much. She never ever leaves my mind. I love to hear the boys pray for their little sister. They haven't met her yet, but you wouldn't know it from their prayers. It makes my heart so proud!
To my blogging buddies... Thank you for your prayers for Isabella. Don't stop! Our PGN approval has to be close. It is SO hard to wait, but the Lord gives me just enough hope to make it through each day.
Lamentations 3:22-23... Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

Big Kahuna and I have known each other since we were kids and have been married for almost 15 years. We are passionate about our family, travel and serving God. We love helping people and bringing them hope. We laugh ourselves to tears watching classic episodes of Saturday Night Live and The Office. Summer is our favorite season, and we live for warm evenings playing with the kids on the beach.
Big Surf is 14 years old. He's a voracious reader, focused, and spends hours building things. He is our resident techie and is also learning to play the violin. He loves to spend his free time playing baseball, flag football, or out on the trails by the house building his clubhouse.
Goofy Foot is ten years old. He devours his free reading books like there is no tomorrow. He is also the family comedian. If you see him, ask him to tell you a joke! He is tender-hearted, social and compliant. When he is not outside riding his bike, you'll find him drawing or writing a funny book.
Beach Bunny is three years old. She is our sunshine! She joined our family through the unbelievable gift of adoption. Beach Bunny loves to snuggle with us and carefully takes care of her baby dolls. She is super silly and must say hi to everyone! One word that describes her is "joy".

Looks like you guys had an awesome Easter! I wish it had been in the 80's here, but it was rather cold! I have a good feeling about your OUT being real soon! I have read where the tide has turned in regards to how long you stay with the first and second reviewer! The second one is now the short stay! That beautiful Princess will be home before too long and ooh so worth the wait! Big hugs!
