We have been having lots of fun lately. I am so glad that it finally warmed up. Friday David got off work early and it was 84 degrees outside so we decided to go swimming. Well actually David and Christy swam I sat by the side and read. My swimming suit no longer fits and I am not sure that I want to shell out any money for a maternity one. My legs got a little tan :) Saturday was a busy, busy day. David had a watch from 4am to 8am. As soon as he got home I headed out to the Sons of Thunder food drive. We get lots of good food from this food drive. It is the largest of the three we attend each month. After I got home from that we all headed over to the park in our community for a Lincoln Military Easter/Spring event. They had free lunch, face painting, inflatable bounce house and slide and Easter egg hunts for the kids. Christy had a blast. I got a little sun on my arms :) Then we ran to the maternity store to try and find me some more clothes. I hate paying that much money for anything, especially maternity clothes that I will only be wearing for a few more months. We did not end up buying anything. In the evening we went to the base theatre and watched "Unknown". I thought it was a great movie. David really enjoyed it as well. Sunday we got up early and drove to Anaheim. The Andersen's had invited us to watch conference with them. We have done this before and have really enjoyed it. We had yummy breakfast of muffins, eggs and potatoes. For lunch we had enchiladas and chips and salsa. So yummy. Then of course we had dessert. Peanut butter cookies, lemon bars and fig newtons. I had never before had homemade fig newtons, but Aunt Connie's were delicious :) We had a great time hanging out and watching conference. After a while we headed home. Christy is out of school this whole month! I admit I am not looking forward to the rest of this month. I need to think of fun things that we can do, besides all the homework I have prepared for her. I figure that I can teach her more at home in a month than she has learned at school all year. I have bad feelings towards Christy school, if you can't tell.
Christy got this little chick painted on her arm at the housing Easter event. She didn't want anything painted on her face.
Her is Christy ready for the Easter egg hunt to begin.
There she goes looking for eggs.
Each kid was only allowed to pick up seven eggs. You can't see inside her bag but Christy choose all pink eggs. Each egg had two starbursts inside.
Today Christy and I made bracelets from the kit she received for Christmas. It was a fun activity that used up some of our time.
Today we also went to Old Navy. They were having a sale where all clearance items were marked an additional 30% off. Plus today was one of their military discount days. I scored some new clothes. Of which only one is actually maternity clothing. But the rest work. I like Old Navy because their sizes are different than everywhere else so I get to buy a smaller size than I really am and that makes me feel good!!!!
