Easter Fun

Congratulations to mamma for winning the movie line contest from Young Guns. I've got that BonJovi song running through my head now...

The next movie line up for consideration is...oh, there's so many, I may have to do more than one. This movie is one of my all-time favorites, and is rich in classic lines. Here are some:

"The government do take a bite, don't she?"

"Son, you got a panty on your head"

"And when there was no fowl, we ate sand"
"You ate sand?!?"

Somebody stop me, I could go on and on and quote the whole movie verbatim word for word. Good luck to all.

Hey, I'd also like to know where the sunshine is? Family and friends across the country are reporting warm temperatures in the 70's and up, and we've been stuck here in the drizzly 50's with a cold wind. A little sunshine would be nice.

In fact, the weather really affected Easter egg hunting around here. We took Girlie and ZimDee went to the local park on Saturday for their annual Easter egg hunt, and they both hunted for eggs in the rain and mud. Here is my sweet family: They were happier than they look in this picture, I promise. Just a little rained-on. And I think they're chewing on cookies.

Look here at ZimDee--he's squinting at the rain falling in his eyes:
And I love this picture of Zim: That was how he looked every time he saw the Easter bunny walk by.

Here at home on Sunday, the Count and I would have hidden our eggs in our much bigger and more contained back yard, but it would have turned into a bigger mud-fest than the day before. So we hid the eggs around our smaller front yard and driveway. And as soon as we hid the last egg, it started pouring rain. Here is a picture of the Count and his children looking at the rain fall on all the eggs outside:When the rain finally let up, a good time was had by all.

My love to everyone.

Your babies are so cute!! That pic of ZimDee giggling at the bunny made me laugh so hard! It's adorable! And Girlie in the Big puffy coat makes her look so sweet. So, did Sproutie get any eggs?

Wow, that was fast, Sandy! Wasn't that a great movie? I could watch it over and over and over. In fact, I have.

No, Sproutie didn't get any eggs. He was content to just watch Brother and Sissy gather them all. He knows his time will come.
