Disney on Ice and Easter

We had a very busy weekend!!! I love being busy, but not when I have been "husband-less" for 7 days!!! We got through it like we always do just busy, tired and having some troubles with Austyn....but PRAISE GOD, my husband has a job and we are all healthy!!!
On Friday my girlfriend (Jaime) and her sister (Danielle) too the kiddos to see Disney on Ice. This was Austyn's second time seeing Disney on Ice, but Haydyn's first time, so I was a little nervous on how she would act or should I say sit-still. As most of you all know, my kids don't sit still for anything!!! We get to the Arena and I cant find my tickets!!!!! YES.....ME .....ALWAYS ORGANIZED NEVER LATE ALICIA LOST HER TICKETS!!! Even Jaime said this is something I would do not you!!! We searched everywhere in my diaper bag, car, called Cory at work to see if he had them for some odd reason and no LUCK!! Jaime kept me calm and said lets go over to will-call and see if they can pull up my information!! They pulled up her info and printed me 3 tickets so we could get in!!! After all of this we missed 10 minutes of the show and so we are walking to our seats in the dark and Haydyn starts SCREAMING saying she is scared!!! I thought...OH GREAT...I am going to be out in the lobby area for 2 hours if my daughter doesn't stop crying!! After about 10 minutes she calmed down and ended up LOVING IT!!! We had a great time and it wouldn't be fun without some kind of excitement happening!!
On Saturday the kiddos decorated Easter cookies and eggs. We went to church that evening, because I didn't want to deal with the crowds on Sunday all by myself. After church we headed over to uncle Drew's house for dinner and he and Lindsay( his girlfriend) has Easter baskets for the kiddos, as well as Grandpa Dave and Grandma Jackie came. They played Rock-band, ate spaghetti, and played with stuff in there Easter baskets. Uncle Drew moved right down the street from us, so it has been so nice to just walk or ride our bikes over to his house and hang out, and he and Lindsay have been helping out with babysitting since its so convenient!! WE LOVE IT!! On Sunday the kids and I went over to my mom and dads for Easter and the kids had a blast doing a Easter egg hunt, getting spoiled by everybody and Austyn even went swimming in my parents pool and it was 69 degrees!!! That's Austyn for ya!! He only lasted about 30 minutes, but that was long enough, when he got out he had blue lips and blue hand and feet!!
I was bummed that Cory had to work Easter this year and he worked Christmas, but it was his time to work this holiday so somebody else could spend time with their family. He had some pretty bad "Calls" that day and night, so I think he is ready to come home on Tuesday morning!! SO AM I!!!
I am so grateful for Easter and what Jesus did for me on that Cross...

I am so thankful that I (and all that believe) have hope in the ONE and ONLY RISEN GOD- JESUS!!!! I love that we have one day a year set aside to celebrate that-EASTER!!!! AMEN!!! Matthew 28:5-6 because of your blood my sins are washed away!!!
