Easter weekend started off with my mom and I going to see my new twin 2nd cousins, (got that)? Anyways, my mom's family lives in Monroe, LA. I adore going there. It holds sooo many special memories for me. Gav said one day he will take me to live there, and really it's not all that special, just family and that is special enough. But, we go to see my 1st cousin Peter and his wife Jennifer. They have a 2 year old JP and around 1 month old twins, Molly and Grady. They were all so precious. I've never known anyone personally to have twins so it was really neat watching how well they all flow together and have a nice little routine, for now anyways. Thanks Pete and Jennifer, we enjoyed loving on those babies.
After getting back from Monroe, I went to get "my girls" better known as Mattie and Millie. Now, I have 1 other neice and another on the way, but unfortunately the little girls live far away, and at this season of my life, Mattie and Millie are close, but I love them all the same. Sorry had to get that out of the way. I get Mattie and Millie just about every Tuesday, but this was a special day, they got to spend the night. We started off the night painting on the porch, eating some junk food(sorry Amelia), and later we dyed some Easter Eggs. We had so much fun. They are getting to be giggly little girls. They tell secrets and make jokes. Although, they really are completely and I do mean completely different. I will write about this later, but for now I love you girls and you will always have a Yaya.
I guess I should explain that I am Yaya to my neices and nephews. It's pronounced like dayday. Now you know.
My girls on the porch. It was such a beautiful day. They are eating pizza rolls, Mattie loved them and I think Millie ate them just because Madison did.?.?.?SATURDAY
Saturday morning was so great. I love waking up with my hubs in the bed and not at work on the weekends. We got up and took the girls home, made some stops, then off to Clinton for TJ's 1st Birthday. I love my Nowell family and the little ones they have made. TJ is Gav's sister, Marianna's first baby boy. We had a blast, especially in the jump jump Mae Mae and Poppy bought for all the grandkids. They knew I would probably get in too. I couldn't resist.
Hannie with the Singing Bday Cake. It comes to every party. TJ didn't know what to think.
Caleb really enjoyed the cake.
SUNDAY
We woke up and went to a beautiful and emotional (for me) Easter Sunday service. We love our new church. After church, Gav and I spent time together and alone it was so nice. After taking our traditional Sunday nap, we headed to my mom's park in her neighborhood, better known as Nana's park, for the 1st Annual Adcock Easter Egg Hunt. My mom really is a great Nana. She put loose change in some of the eggs just like she did when I was little. Wow did it make my neices and nephews day to get those eggs with 10 and 25 cents in it. The kids had a blast and I managed to catch a few pics too. Happy Easter!
