Mimi, this first one is for you. Look at that penmanship!! I don't think my handwriting was that good until 6th grade!
Grandma Cindy, this one is for you. Ellie copied the cover of the book you sent, "Sleepy Head." Then, she copied it in Spanish as well. And, that is suppose to be a giraffe going through the word, "head."
Ellie drew this picture with an elaborate story about how Uncle Drew was saving her from a volcano. I love it! It's so Ellie to come up with huge elaborate stories these days. She asked me to put in on the blog so Uncle Drew could see it. Here ya go Uncle Drew!
We spent Spring Break in Missouri spending time with family and visiting friends.
On Easter we had breakfast with Grandma Cindy and Grandpa Mike then went back to their house to meet their new puppy, Maggie. We also read books and put puzzles together.
After breakfast we went back to Mimi and Papa's house for an Easter Egg hung with Brett and Will. Papa let the kids have five minutes of unlimited chocolate consumption after the hunt. No one got sick (surprisingly) and they had a great time!
After Easter I went to visit my sister in St. Louis. She and Brayden welcomed little Baby Drew a couple of days before Easter. Little Drew was quite the sweetie!
There was a bit of a situation back in Columbia (Meggie managed to gouge out Mimi's eye and tear her cornea...poor Mimi) so I went back to Columbia and helped manage the munchkins. One night we went to have Mexican then I took the kids for ice cream.
After getting Mimi all healed up I went to West Plains to visit my friend Leann and her sweet new baby, Lena. We hadn't seen each other in almost 7 years, it was so great to catch up, it was like not a day had passed. I love her so much!
After the whirlwind week we drove back to the ATL and resumed normal like. Ellie made it clear she much prefers vacation time at Mimi and Papa's house. She is looking forward to this summer when she is going to be at home with Miss Shayann and Miss Elizabeth. :-)
