Happy Easter....

God bless you all and happy Easter as well...

John arrived home last night and all is right in the Evans' world once again. He had the opportunity to get up with Addison last night a few times not to mention he has been on nights for the last two weeks so he is still sleeping. Annabelle isn't happy about him not being down here but soon enough she can give him a big hug and kiss!

Sharelle and I worked our butts off last night rearranging the "kids" room here at Grammy and Papa's. We basically switched two rooms. It looks great and I think it will be a wonderful time when Nathan and Caroline are here too! I have been talking up the toddler bed to Annabelle so she would be ready to sleep in it here (she sleeps in one at home and has for over a year but here she has been in the crib.. only because there was no where else we could put here that didn't involve bunk beds... ) so when she was going to bed... she walked into the room and asked "so, where am I sleeping?!" in a I-am-very-tired-just-tell-me-so-I-can-go-to-sleep tone.. She is certainly developing her personality! and she has her mommy's attitude as well...

Annabelle and Craven had a fun filled day while Sharelle and I worked on the rooms.. they played at the swing set, on the big rocks, and in the blue sand.. yes, blue sand which both were covered in... (and apparently Annabelle ate some too) it was a mess but nothing a little bath wouldn't clean off.. speaking of baths.. the colored bath tablets WORK! YEAH.... She still holds herself, afraid of peeing, but no more screaming! PRAISE THE LORD!

I am enjoying my coffee and hanging with the girls while waiting for the other adults wake... I will take photos of the egg hunt and share...

God bless you all and continue to keep our soldiers and families in your prayers
