Hey Cherries. I slept in this morning. Even the doggies slept in, which is amazing for Skylar. We all had a great time last night with DD and family. My step grandson, other step grandson and his girlfriend and the baby came too. We had pizza and wings delivered and hung out and colored eggs. My son in law built a fire in the fire pit and some of them hung out in the yard for a while. Twinkie and Sky had a blast and I don’t know if I’ve ever seen them so tired. Sky not waking me up early to feed her speaks volumes as to how tied they were. Lol. Today we are headed for 79 degrees! Woo hoo! I’ll be outside for a while for sure, but also want to work on the layout that I started the other day. 

Hope you all have a great day. 

Good morning Barb. Glad y'all had a wonderful time yesterday. Pizza and wings sound super yummy!

I too slept in this morning. A little after 8am. Got everything done yesterday that I needed to get done - laundr, cleaned bathrooms, swept/mopped the floors, made the lemon cake and the deviled eggs. Even divided up some chicken I bought on Thursday and put them in smaller vacuseal packs. Showered and then took the rest of the day off. Caught up on some shows, and made an easy dinner for the 2 of us. Went to be a little later than usual.

Now I'm just relaxing with my coffee. Will take my shower soon and start getting ready. Headed to my brother and SIL's house at 11:30. If we're FB friends, BOLO for photos of the boys!

Hope everyone has a great day.

Have a great time at your SIL's house, have fun with your little cuties 
 

Good morning Cherries. Spent the morning catching up on challenge love and now starting the prep for Easter dinner tomorrow.  This year we decided to order food as I did a party a couple weeks ago that I cooked for and was wiped out. My ODS and girlfriend are coming so looking forward to that. Will definitely be scrapping this afternoon after household chores. Need to get my NSD examples made. Sooooo looking forward to that weekend. Have a great day everyone

Glad you ALL had a great time yesterday, Barb! Including the pups! VERY nice!  
Enjoy your day!  
 

Happy Saturday!

In from walking. Not too cold, but the wind was! DH is out driving for Avis.

Had a good day yesterday. Oldest granddaughter brought her siblings over at lunch. I fed them and DH took the birthday boy and his brother to the Mind Craft movies tomorrow. The minion and I hung out. We made meatballs for the spaghetti dinner and also hot cross buns for Easter. Then she wanted to play outside. It was pretty nice. Sunny and around 50. I did clean up in the backyard and she helped sometimes. She was thrilled I had a little rake she could use. We had a yummy dinner, DH got it together. Grandson was happy with his birthday stuff. And they all will be back for Easter dinner. Need to make my lemon dessert today. Otherwise, no big plans.

I hope everyone has an awesome Saturday in this Blessed Season!

Aww Leslee, I'm glad you've had a good time with your family!  
Have a wonderful day!  
 

Hey Cherries It's actually 70°+ outside again. Might hit 79! 
I JUST hope it stays nice for tomorrow!  
I work at 5 today and tomorrow I'm off for Easter and so glad to be going to see family! Today I'm just hanging out, going with the flow!  

Stay blessed Cherries  
 

Hey everyone!  I stopped in early to say HBD to Sharman and then took off running.  Quick trip to the store for a few last minute items.  I just finished two dozen chocolate covered strawberries, deviled eggs and peanut butter squares for tomorrow.  Now I'm cleaning a bit and then hope to get a little more packed for my crop on Thursday.  DH is washing the car while it's still a little cloudy.  Roasted turkey cut up over salad for dinner.

Sounds like a busy day Vicki! Also sounds delicious! Have fun getting ready for your crop!
 

Hey Cherries!!! 

WE HAVE WATER!!!!!!! At last!!! It was a hard won battle but it feels like we’re finally going to be able to work on the rest of the house soon. We only have cold water for a few days. He has to do something to get the hot water heater working. I wonder which one of us will get the first tank! Lolol! He wants a bath in the BIG tub and I want a nice long HOT shower without having it go ice cold on me in a few minutes. What luxuries! Hahaha! 

Otherwise things are normal. After finding our injured chicken Spot walking into the living room we decided to let her out. She had been eating and was going all over the place so she was ready. She also laid 3 eggs!!! We were a bit worried about the others picking on her but we kept an eye and when they started we stopped them. Thankfully they got the message quickly! 

I finished a layout last night. Want to do my class layout today. New class starts tomorrow! 

Hope you’re all having a wonderful weekend!
