Our visits are far and few between, but we LOVE our time with Aunt Chelsea and Uncle Joe!!

Friday Five

1.  Thank goodness for Good Friday and all that Jesus has done for us!!

2.  So thankful for a four day weekend, it couldn't have come at a better time.  Excited to spend the day weekend with my family celebrating the greatness of the cross!

3.  Thankful for my wonderful bible study ladies!!  We are working on The Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster.  I would recommend it for any bible study to read.  We love it, and I look forward to those Monday nights!

4.  My class is starting The BFG this next week, so I am excited to jump onto teacherspayteachers and pinterest to see what fantastic ideas I can find for my kiddos!

5.  Tyler and I are loving this new CD that he had to download on Thursday after he discovered on Wednesday that it came out a little bit ago.  He was very sad that he was behind in the times, but Rend Collective is a great band!!

You can order this awesome CD at amazon or iTunes!

Easter Bouquet

For Easter Tyler told me he wanted to do baskets again, but that he wanted a candy bouquet for his. I thought I would go ahead and give it a try. So I gathered up my candy coupons, hit up Walmart and CVS for deals going on this week, and bought my supplies.

It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be to put it together. We found a 100 pack of skewers at Walmart, so now I have plenty for the next bouquet he wants me to make. Thinking of making him one for his birthday with drinks?

Finished product, ready to to go for Easter for the hubby
