Day before Easter

   Kaya was super excited to dye Easter eggs. We went with the kool-aid method and it worked really well. Smelled pretty great too lol We used cherry, lemon lime, strawberry, grade, berry blue and tropical punch. If you stired it up well then let the eggs sit in the mix for a bit, rolled them and let them sit again they made some interesting designs. Kaya gave it a big thumbs up :)  Her Easter is stashed and ready for Easter day (Giant purple bunny holding a purse..in the purse is a chocolate baby Chick, mini Cadberry eggs and a new pink plaid skort and tshirt :)
   We also went out last night for our anniversary since it is actually on Easter day this year. We had a great time. Went to a local bbq joint and it was great service, awesome food and good prices (even better we had a 10 dollar giftcertificate lol). Afterwards we took our time at Lowes with no little voice asking what every single item is (Kaya stayed with her Mammaw W and her Uncle). Figured out a few projects we are going to do. It was nice to just talk.
   Some people think your anniversary has to be a huge expensive meal, some far flung couples trip or that it has to be ubber romantic with all the shindigs. That is fine if that is what the couple wants. We just enjoy being together, enjoy each other's sense of humor and enjoy the love we have for each other.
  Kaya was certain she should get to come...since we "do everything as a family Mamma!!!" Good point but Mommy and Daddy deserve some time out too. We rarely get date night so we enjoy it when we do.
   After we got home our neighbors invited us over for a bonfire in their fire pit to roast marshmellows and the kids to color eggs. It was a nice time. Steve grew up with the guy and knows his parents well. We just had fun. Another big thing today was letting Kaya walk across our yard to the neighbors house by herself (we could see her) and play for about an hour. To some that may seem small but she has never got to do that and to be honest..I felt like puking a time or two lol but they all played well together and she was invited back anytime. I know it's good for her to have friends but it's also slightly hard to just let your kiddo be at another's house. But she had fun, didn't complain when it was time to come home. :)
