Snowman on Easter weekend

This snowman was fun to put together, the eyes, nose and arms are all icicles from the roof, then I got out the food coloring and dripped it on the icicles to get the eyes blue, nose orange and then used red for the mouth. Brayden then said that he needed buttons so I just went right down his front with red for buttons. It wasn't long though into the day and he began to resemble a snowman that had been shot, the red just bled and bled into itself and all the surrounding snow. I was really glad when he was melted enough to fall over and be removed from my sight. I won't use red for buttons again!!

Easter 2010

Its Easter Weekend and we had snow to begin with and now not much is left. Its beautiful out and most has melted away. Granny came down yest afternoon and spent the night and the morning with us. We dyed eggs last night and hid them this morning. The boys had so much fun looking for them, but it will be great to hide them and find them outside. Brayden and I went out and built a snowman this morning before the snow all went away. We used icicles for the eyes, nose and arms. We used food coloring to dye the icicles in the eyes blue and the nose orange, red for the mouth and buttons. As the snowman melted it began to look like it had been shot, but its was funny. Braxton hung out with Granny in the house and cuddles were shared all around. It was a good time had by all. Now the boys are hanging out in the shop for the afternoon. Wyoming court went easy as expected, we won't have the final decree till the end of June tho as we have to wait till he has been in our house for 6 months. Guess I got in a bit of a hurry, but the attorney and judge will finish it without us and just send the documents to us when its final. For now we have a interlocutory decree. No big deal, just not completely final. We started to catch up the vaccinations yest, he did really well, no fever or anything. Its amazing. I only allowed two shots, will get more later. The only tears were during the shots. We do have a reoccurring case of scabies that he had when we got him out of the orphanage. So back to the prescrip cream. The first dose has made a difference again and will do the second dose on tues night again. I skipped the second dose the first time around, so lesson learned, hope this solves it permanently. I didn't know tho that scabies are the 7 year itch, guess its hard to get rid of completely, so we hope this will do it. For now, we are all enjoying the weather and looking forward to warmer weather. Brayden is talking about planting the garden, he can't wait to get the corn up. I can't wait for the cucumbers. The yard was all ready for the snow, I had the flower beds cleaned out, Roger had the lawns mowed, so all was ready and now will turn green. Easter hunting pics will be upcoming.
