So far as I know, no one did an April Fool’s joke today. If they did I didn’t realize and the joke’s on me!

Today I started to feel a little better by about 4pm. I just kept sneezing. After work at both stores and stopping at the bank, I came home to take down the Easter decorations. The predicted rain did not materialize in the afternoon and it was sunny and warm. I was able to get all the outside decorations, including the little egg garden out front, and I changed the flags.

I took these down…

It’s 8:07pm and I just finished packing all the Easter stuff away except for the window stickees. I think those will have to wait until tomorrow. I did not sleep well last night and am running out of steam. It was a long day and I didn’t eat very well. My stomach is protesting. I believe I’ll have toast when I’m finished here and do the windows and the laundry tomorrow.

Yesterday was a very nice day! I went to early service, and the message was ALL OR NOTHING. He talked about dispelling the myths about Jesus’ death and resurrection. We had a light breakfast between services. I grabbed a quick picture of Max and JJ – they looked cute in their green plaid shirts. I also handed out my 16 little ‘God Loves You’ duckies in eggs and I think they went over well.

After church Autmn, Noah and Cameron came first, and they were all dressed in the same color! They looked so cute! Cameron is trying to sit up – he can do it but falls over easily and doesn’t like that part at all!

Sitting up – but falling over!
He loves blankets and towels!

Jen took the ‘kids’ outside and took pictures.

The kids all appreciated their candy treats and their eggs – Cameron got a rubber duckie and really liked that. It went in his mouth first thing!

the Duckie was a hit!

I spent most of the day in the kitchen (and a huge thanks to Kelly and Sherree for helping or I’d still be there!) so I missed getting pictures of everyone. The food all turned out to be yummy – except that no one was really interested in dessert. A few people grabbed a brownie before they left. I sent all the leftovers home except for the ham.

One last hug before leaving

So now I have to pay bills and update my calendars and I’m done for the day! Countdown for vacation starts today!

The Answer to Saturday’s nights trivia question (Why do pancakes always win at baseball?) is because they have the best batter!!! From this point forward instead of trivia I’m going to list a blessing every day. They are NOT in any order! Today’s blessing – since I mentioned it – is the upcoming vacation!

PEANUTS Thought for the Day:

TOMORROW April 2nd is:

Autism Awareness Day; Children’s Picture Book Day; International Fact-Checking Day; National DIY Day; National Ferret Day; National PB&J Day; National Reconciliation Day, National Umbrella Day.

I love any books, so that’s a good one. I do a lot of things myself, and it works, but that’s not my strong point. And Saturday’s fake day was Take A Walk Day, although that’s a good thing to do any day. God bless!
