Easter Bunny Visit

Well this year we decided that in order to be able to fully celebrate the true meaning of Easter we would have a chat with the Easter Bunny and ask him to come Friday night instead of Saturday night. He agreed and Kennadee woke up to find her Easter Basket and a note from the Easter Bunny that said he had hidden eggs around the house for her to find. It was so awesome to hear her read most of the note on her own! She is getting so good at reading! She was so excited to go on an Easter Egg Hunt and squealed with delight every time she found one! It was so cute!  

Easter Egg Hunt

Well technically it was a "throw a bunch of candy in a field and go find it" hunt but it sounds better the other way. This is the third year we have done this Easter egg hunt. I don't know why we go every year. They have horrible candy and there's always way too many people there and parents who don't listen and go out in the field with the kids when they aren't supposed too. But I guess we do it for the experience right? Kennadee went out and found her candy and then she was ready to go home so we didn't get any pictures with the Easter Bunny or the Firemen that always come to it. See post from 2 years ago. We also had to leave in a hurry because we may or may not have been illegally parked and wanted to make sure we didn't get a ticket!

Coloring Easter Eggs

Here are some fun pics of us coloring Easter Eggs. Some are kind of blurry but you get the point. Kennadee and Russell enjoyed putting the eggs in many different colors to make fun colors. We also did a Boise State blue and orange egg because whenever we find anything with blue and orange they have to go together! LOL! 

Okay Mom I'm ready!

Glasses

Well unfortunately Kennadee didn't take after me with my perfect vision. When we went to her doctors appointment she failed her vision test there so they referred us to an eye doctor and they discovered that she is farsighted and has 20/30 vision. They said that getting glasses will help her with seeing the board at school and also with reading. We went and picked up her glasses today and she looks so cute! They have already made a huge difference in her homework. She got it done so quickly and was able to read really easily! Hooray!

Prom

Russell and I got the opportunity to chaperone the Prom for his school this last weekend. It was an eye opening experience to say the least. Kennadee will NOT be going to public school prom when she gets in high school!! I was excited however that I got Russell to take a picture with me and I was even more excited when the guy let us have it for free instead of paying 15.00 for 2 5x7's! For some reason my dress is hanging weird so I look like I'm pregnant and I look really short!!! But other than that it turned out pretty good.

Six Year Old Well Child Check-up

I can't believe my little girl is 6 years old already. It just blows my mind how quickly it has gone by!! I took her in for her well child visit yesterday and the Dr. says she is doing really well. She is 46 1/2 inches tall (75th percentile)!!! and she is 42 pounds (30th percentile)!! She has stayed right on her growth curve and is doing beautifully! She took her vision test and unfortunately failed it so we are going to have to take her to the eye doctor.  For her right eye it was 20/25 Left was 20/30 and both together was 20/25. I was really hoping that she would inherit my 20/16 vision but that's not the case! Darn it. It broke my heart to see her squinting trying to figure out what the letters said. Other than that she is doing great and I am so glad!! I love my little girl!!

My Second Vinyl Lettering Project

This is my second project. It's on my living room wall. I have been sifting through vinyl wall sayings and when I came across this one I just knew I had to do it! 

 

I am having so much fun with this machine!!
