Catching up

I have been out of town for a week, so I wanted to update with what we have been up to.

On Saturday night, Tim and I went on a date. His company had an appreciation dinner for all the employees at Meadow View. We had a great night together!

On Sunday, Ethan turned 6 months old. The time goes by way too quickly! He's such a sweet little boy! He's very laid back and he's almost always smiling.

On Sunday, I left with the boys to go visit my family. The drive was OK. Both of them lost it around Crossville. Thankfully, we were stopping soon to visit a good friend of mine from college. We were all ready to get out of the car! The last 2 hours of trip went by quickly. I brought out the DVD player for Riley and that entertained him.

Monday through Thursday I kept my sister's kids. Riley loved playing with his cousins! They all played great all week!!

Ethan got lots of love from his family!!

On Thursday, everyone came over to my Mimi and Poppy's house. The kids colored eggs and had an Easter Egg Hunt.

On Saturday, we went to Big Daddy and Dee Dee's. The kids ate breakfast and had an indoor Easter Egg Hunt!



Saturday afternoon we drove to Pigeon Forge to meet Tim. We all were very excited to see him!! Tim's family was camping there. On Easter morning, we ate breakfast at Cracker Barrel , visited with his family at the campground, and drove home. It was great to be back home! I missed sleeping in my bed with my hubby and its been so nice to get back into a routine with the kids!!
