Easter Eggs

Nothing makes my girls happier, especially Charley, than getting to be creative.  The girls had the BEST time dying and decorating Easter eggs this year.  It was a family affair, and we ended up with such cute eggs.  Carter had Minnie Mouse stickers for her eggs, and Charley had emoji stickers to make faces on hers.  We laughed and laughed and laughed making the different emoji faces and pretending to make them talk or make the same face.  My favorite was the “Grandad Mike Scowl.”  Grandad Mike didn’t seem to laugh when we told him about it, but it sure was funny to us!

The Easter Bunny

My luck for making it back for Carter’s Tea for Two ran out by the time we went to Green Hills to meet Daddy and let the girls get their yearly picture with the Easter Bunny.  Carter was so excited on our way to the mall, but she was completely uninterested once we got there.  I should have just let it go, but I really wanted to continue my yearly tradition of getting their picture with that bunny!  And Charley got upset because I wouldn’t pay $28 for a picture of just her with the bunny since she actually cooperated!  Then we went to dinner and Carter decided she would get her picture with the bunny “today!”  So, we went back to the mall, but apparently the word “today” doesn’t actually mean the same day, because she refused, yet again, and went home with Daddy to face her punishment of going straight to bed and no hi-pad for the whole next day!  In the words of Tracey “#makingmemories” at its finest!

A Tea for Two with Carter

I can’t think of a better surprise than to find out that Moms and Muffins was actually a Tea for Two and scheduled for noon instead of first thing in the morning at Carter’s school on the morning I was coming home from a work trip.  The thought of missing out on such a sweet morning had me so disappointed.  I was thrilled to land back in Tennessee in enough time for Amma to pick me up and take me straight to preschool to meet Carter.  We ate cookies, did a craft and spent time with her sweet friends and teachers.  The tea was simply delightful!
