Easter Weekend

First we celebrated Easter on Saturday with the Minnis family. We had an Easter Egg Hunt, dyed Easter Eggs and spent the day with them.

Get ready, get set, GO!!

Papaw and Nanny

Uncle John helps Emily with "Inkwell" the stray.

Then Sunday was with the Colvins. We went to Little Flock Sunday morning for worship, then Colvin's later on for Supper. Good times!

Happy Easter!

Never before seen footage of the Easter Bunny....much shorter than i expected!! ;)

New Family Member

We have a new addition to the Minnis clan. We just adopted Angel the Parakeet today. We promised the girls when we got more space, we'd get another pet. Since I am allergic to EVERYTHING, there aren't many safe pets for me. But Angel promises to be a nice addition to our family, along with our 2 beta fish Red Cobra (the name of the week, formerly known as Violet and Fiesty) and Rainbow.

Here are some photos:

Jade Drive...unveiled!

Wow, after a crazy March with moving to a new home and having 2 rounds of Strep hit our family....April is here and we are hoping for some smooth times ahead??!

But we LOVE the house!! Dennis says it still doesn't feel like ours, but I told him it will as soon as he has to make that first house payment!! ;)

Here are some photos of our new place:

Front view

We love the open floor plan...

Nice big kitchen

Living room and dining has great lighting...these photos were taken with very few lights on...lots of natural light in the house during the day!!

Entryway with beautiful glass front door.

Plenty of space in the Master with large his and hers closets.

Tiled master bath

The kids love having their own bathroom - it is their green Mokey bathroom!!

Emily's pink and purple room

Anna chose blue for her room...

Backyard with play area for the kids

The kids have taken over the basement already...there is a large finished section with an office built in, then about 600 or 700 sq ft of unfinished for storage.
