I pretty much took this post from the DHD blog, hope miss Gen doesn't mind... she just said it all so perfectly ;)  Hope you join us in the fun, sales & just all around scrappy good times... {robyn}

Easter weekend recap

I can't believe Easter has come & gone once again!  The kids were lucky enough to finally get a little break from school after spending most of their days off of school recently as snow make up days.  They had a long weekend of Good Friday off, the weekend & then Monday too.  I tried my best to take it easy those days to do some stuff with them.  Thursday night my neice came to stay & then Friday I took them all to see Rio.

it was a nice break in our day since it's been rainy, cold & just not good outside weather.  the popcorn was great too :)  I was also gearing up for Easter Brunch {on Saturday} with my family at our house, so of course I was doing lots of cleaning & preparing for that.  We've also been doing a lot of "disaster clean up" recently... the 4 year in our house has been on a whirlwind of getting into everything, which most generally ends up in some sort of clean up!  I enjoyed taking some slow time with the kids, though, I haven't done that for a while & it was much over-due! 

Here's what I did Saturday morning...

yep, this is me & my "big sister" Carol pre-5k! It was the first time for the both of us :) I LOVED it!  Can't wait for my next 5k & I'm already working on my speed/endurance to have a faster finish.  This time I finished running/walking it in approx. 42 minutes.  I'm so proud of Carol for accomplishing this goal too... I don't think we ever would have thought of doing it a year ago!  I'm looking forward to May 14th, when my sisters' Carol & Kim & my mom Mary & I are all going to do the Weight Watchers 5k with our group.  It should be fun & again, I'm so proud of them all for pushing themselves to this goal!  Next will be a 5k with my hubby... yep, I'm holding you to it Danno :)  He's also been plugging away recently on the treadmill... I'm hoping to get one in with our boys over the summer too.  Anywhoo... after the 5k, we hurried back to my house to eat somethin' & let the kids hunt eggs.  Lydia couldn't wait :)

then we were off to a 50th birthday party to end the night... whew!

Easter was a much more layed back day... breakfast, Church, bbq lunch & hanging out on the porch & then Dairy Queen for supper ;)  I was able to snap some pics before church of my cuties...

& of course some 4 wheeler rides were in order to finish out the day...

hope you all had an incredible Easter & were able to spend some valuable time with your families as well!

have a great day {robyn}

new release 4.21

well, another week has FLOWN past & it's time again for a new release!  We're busy here planning & cleaning for Easter Brunch at our house Saturday with my family... but before we eat, me & one of my sisters are going to do our first ever 5k!  I'm excited & nervous, but am just going to run when I can, walk when I need to & will be so excited to say I've completed another accomplishment I never thought I would do!  Wish me luck!

anyway, here's what I've got for you... I decided to sell this one as a kit instead of separate kits, so we'll see how that goes :)  don't forget it's 30% off just today, too!
