Megan's Perspective

The other night, we took a walk around the block with the camera. My plan was to get some cute photos of the girls on our walk. Megan had a different idea. She commandeered the camera for herself, and took some of her own pictures. I’ve included a few of them here – I think we have a budding photographer on our hands!

Dandelions & Violets. We see a lot of these on our walks. And usually come home with a fistful of them to put into a glass of water!

I like the composition on this one. It’s a little blurry, because she doesn’t hold still long enough to take the photo, but I like how the tulips are on the one side.

Dogwood blooms, I think?

More tulips. I think these are her favorites – she took a LOT of photos of tulips!

Mama's got a brand new bag!

Ok, so it’s a dorky title. But I’m just so darn proud of myself. I had to show off my latest creation. I made this bag all by myself! I found an awesome tutorial online and ended up with this great bag. I wasn’t sure how well it would go on my first attempt, so I found some fabrics in the remnant bin at Joann’s for around $5 and went to work. I am so happy with it that I can see myself making several more!

See…lots of pockets inside too. One is big and one is split, so my phone & keys can go in there without getting lost. Next, I need to find directions for a cell phone holder and make one to match each bag 🙂

P.S. In real life, the colors match more closely than they appear to in the pictures. They both have the same creamy white background – I promise!

Daddy's Three Girls

Scott was behind the camera on Easter so we don’t have a shot of him, but he did manage to capture some good photos of his three girls. I even like the one of me!

Egg Hunting

After lunch, the kids hunted for eggs. Kathy & I set up separate areas for the little ones so that they didn’t get ran over, and they hunted first. Both Molly & Trevor were pretty methodical about their hunting. See an egg, pick it up, go get the next one. Till they’d either found all they could fine, or got bored!

For the older kids, we scattered about 60 eggs around the rest of the yard – under stuff, in stuff, all over my parents’ yard. They ran all over looking for those eggs, and we’re pretty sure they found them all 🙂

Easter Morning

We spent the night Saturday at my parents’ house so the Easter Bunny had to find us in Mercersburg. The girls were up bright & early, but we managed to hold them off till 7 or so. Their baskets were hidden around the living room as were a few other goodies. They enjoyed the morning hunt and settled down to play with their treasures for the rest of the morning till their cousins arrived.
