Easter Plans

So, Easter plans anyone? I know that we don't like to have things too scheduled out but I am thinking that a basic outline would be nice...just so that we can make plans as well. So, when are Liz and Ricky coming to town? Do we have anything planned for Saturday? (We can take the kids to the bid Easter egg hunts at the park orthe zoo) What is the plan for Sunday? What time is church, dinner, Easter baskets fun, egg hunts, etc? Also, are we doing the family picture on Sunday and if so what are we wearing for it and where is it going to be taken? Just basically I'd like to know where to be when and I'll make it work. So, who wants to write up our outline?

Update...


So, I realized that I'm not keeping you all up to date on our whole home buying situation. Anyway, the house that we put an offer on over and month ago (and waited forever to hear back on) was taken off the market earlier this week. So, we had to start over. We went out today and found two more houses that we just love and went ahead and made an offer on one of them. Good news, this time it is owned by a person, not a bank, so we should hear back on our offer on Monday. Plus, if this one doesn't work out, we already have another one all lined up. About the house, it is a 4 bedroom 2 bath (half of which are down stairs in the partly unfinished basement) with a living room and a family room. We really like it. It is right by the Fred Meyer in Nampa. We'll let you know next week when we hear back.

Sorry!

Mom told me today that we had to remove all the pictures of the kids off the internet. Including the blog. We're not allowed to have pictures of foster kids on the internet. So I'm especially sorry to Liz and Rick. I think Mom or Ali can e-mail you picture if you want. I also removed the slide show because I didn't know how to edit it. Anyone can feel free to put it back if they take out the pictures of the kids. Again, I am sorry!

Easter

Ok, so I am still hoping that Ricky is going to be able to come up and be with us for at least Easter Sunday and Monday . . . so . . . what's the plan? Are we going to be doing Easter eggs and stuff Saturday afternoon? Schedule Mary to stop by and take the family picture for us at some point on Sunday, cause that is the only time that I think that it will work? Suggestions? Peoples schedules (Eric and Sarita, what are your plans with the Roger's family?)? Anyway, any feedback would be helpful.
Love,
Lizzy

Family Picture

I am thinking that despite our last family picture being taken in November it way out of date at this point. White we are all together at Easter (I am assuming Ricky will be there) I think that we need to find time for a family picture. It doesn't need to be all fancy, but one with everyone in it would be wonderful. That is if we can get all 15 of us in the camera lens. Not sure how to get it all set up, just an idea.
