Caterpillars and Cars

A few weeks ago, Chris suggested that we start thinking seriously about getting a new car.  We terribly needed something bigger, that holds more than 5 people. 
So...this is what we decided on:      














And, I LOVE IT ! ! ! !  It is exactly what we needed.



Yesterday, Hannah brought home a caterpillar.  She has been on a caterpillar hunt for over a week now, and actually found one last week.  However, while she was playing with "fluffy" outside, she lost him.  She was so upset.  So, after finding one the next day at school, she jumped into the car after school and started picking out names.  Once home, we put "Carly" into a tupperware container and Hannah ran out to find some clovers for her to eat.  When I checked on her last night before going to bed, I noticed some 'web' type material forming on one of the clovers....I didn't think too much about it and I went off to bed.

After dressing Hannah for school, both her and I went into the kitchen to make her lunch.  This is what we found after a quick glance at Carly:
 

























Hannah and I are excited to see what becomes of Carly!  What a nice surprise!

Happy Easter!

Ok, ok...I know this Easter blog is a little late.  Better late than never, right??

This year we had Easter here at our house.  Jacqualine and her crew were in Texas visiting Kenny's family so they weren't able to come.  Also, Warren and Ginger had taken all of theirs to Orlando during Easter week.  Mom, Mark and the girls along with Lebron and Ann and their family were all able to come.  Oh, and Dad was here....his first Easter with us!  We all had an amazing lunch and then we handed all the guys huge bags of eggs to hide!

I love days (like Easter) when I get to spend good quality time with my family.  Wonderful Easter!
