This is a picture of my Grandma (my Dad's Mom) when she was 19 years old. Something about it reminds me of Alyssa. My parents and siblings thought the same thing. Kinda neat! (Note: I actually don't think the picture of Alyssa on my sidebar is a great one to compare her to my Grandma, haha. She looks more like the real Alyssa in person). :-)

Easter
It was another FUN Easter this year! The kids each got a movie and candy in their baskets, which were hiding when they woke up in the morning. Alyssa found hers behind the pantry door, Trevor's was in the laundry room sink, and Kylie's was behind the curtain in the family room. They had so much fun hunting for their baskets. Alyssa got The Princess and the Frog, Trevor got Alvin and the Chipmunks, the Squequel, and Kylie got Mickey Mouse Clubhouse-Featuring Minnie episodes. :-) After they found their Easter baskets, they went outside and hunted for eggs in the backyard. There aren't very many places for the Easter Bunny to hide eggs, so it wasn't much of a hunt, but they still had fun, and it was perfect for Kylie!
We have a rule that whatever is in their baskets, they get to keep for themselves and they don't have to share it with anyone. But whatever is in the eggs, goes in a big bowl. This was Mark's idea and I think it works beautifully.
Happy Easter!
