Easter Fun!

The girls had FUN, FUN, FUN yesterday. It was a little sad waking up with no kids to surprise with baskets full of candy, but our house was a little cold in the morning, so the kids slept at their grandparents house to stay warm!!!

Dean finally figured out what the problem was on our boiler, so now we have hot water and can shower, bathe, wash clothes and wash dishes (phew! yay!) with hot water. Oh, and we have heat too! That's important. Although we were enjoying wearing yarn socks, long johns and sweatshirts to bed, waking up to stand next to the fireplace and warm up! It was just like camp used to be in our very own house.

So..the girls finally came over and had a BLAST hunting for eggs. Koy went outside and hid about 100 plastic eggs all around our house.
