Happy Easter!

I know. I look like a librarian. And Cam has raccoon eyes from his fishing trip without sunscreen. But this is the best there was. And if you could see my whole outfit, it was darn cute!
These sweeties. Gracie is growing her bangs out and they are in that awkward phase...but she said this week she wants to cut her bangs and her hair off short. We shall see...These precious little white dresses that you can't see well are adorable! They are little Jackie Kennedy style things with gold flecks on the white fabric. Precious. AND I got them on super sale in December for $3 each!! How great is that!!!!!
This is the whole gang. My parents, the 6 "blood" grandkids and the 1 "adopted" grandkid (in the plaid dress...she is my best friend's daughter). Aren't they all so pretty!
Easter was...cold. Rainy and all that. I think Jesus should make every Easter sunny and bright since it IS His resurrection day. But we made the most of it. We had good church, great lunch (my Mama made my favorite fried chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy), and even better naps!
We are still working feverishly on the new house. Hopefully this week we will make some real progress. We have the new kitchen ordered (cabinets custom built by our friend the cabinet maker, new countertops, and that fun stuff). The whole house is primed and ready to paint. Now we just have to go do it. Ugh. So it will be another week of no posting I am sure. I do, however, have a menu! I just cannot eat Rosas anymore. Or cereal. I need a planned menu. Funny how that really helps me...

Those are such good pics of you and your fam! Good luck with the painting. I know how yucky that is!
We went to the Amarillo area for Easter to see my Grandad and Aunt, Uncle and Cousins. It was a COLD and yucky day there too.
