Welcome back!

So the stress of the birthday has come and gone, the emotional part will linger a while longer but I keep that under lock and key for the most part. The weekend seemed to fly by and take forever all at the same time, and honestly..i am STILL exhausted!

The party was wonderful! I was so blessed to have so many amazing friends and family memebers show up, and we were even surprised with a visit from Chase who we expected was at school, Milton and Belinda who always make the time to drive from Stone Mountain to see my children on their birthdays and my baby showers, and Cheryl and baby Garrett who I am becoming friends with and hope to continue to build that bond. On top of our surprise guests I was able to edge a surprise in myself by knowing that their would be a 10 year reunion between felicia and melissa and jesse and the shriek let out by melissa was proof that I had done a good job! :)

The party was a hit, the kids had a blast and the weather couldnt have been better! Everyone seemed to click, and the cupcake tower turned out great! The birthday girl did amazingly and even though she had a few tearful moments, she warmed up to the chaos and at the end of it all, passed out on daddy!

After the party we came home and cleaned up again, put everything away, and started preparing for the easter bunny! Christopher dyed eggs for the first time and he did a really good job and got into it more than I had expected. And *finally* after both kids were passed out, the bunny came and delivered the goods and all was quiet at last!

Sunday morning the kids were very excited to see their baskets full on the table, and I made pancakes and scrambled eggs as always. After breakfast we went to Jesses house for a pot luck lunch and easter egg hunt for the kids. It was christopher's first time hunting eggs and he was fabulous at it!! We had a really good time and Laci was really much better there than the day before!

Finally it was time for the weekend to end, we got the kids in bed, me and dad sat together and talked for a while and the I passed out cold!

So here it is, MONDAY! and we all know how I feel about mondays! LOL but this monday isnt so bad since in 2 DAYS I am leaving for DAYTONA!!! WOOT!

So I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and easter and Thank you again to everyone who helped make my baby girl's first birthday a treasured memory!
