Yum Yum's for the Bunny

Since tomorrow is Easter, its time to put out the basket and leave the bunny his traditional carrots and ranch dip for a snack. But Emily also decided to throw him in a sugar cookie :)

Clay Terrace Egghunt

While Daddy went to work for part of the day, we decided to head over to Clay Terrace and participate in their egghunt. Unfortunately, it was kind of un-organized. They werent prepared for as many people that came and it didnt start on time. Plus they put a cap on the eggs you could get..5-10 depending on age and age groups werent seperated (YIKES)!. Thats ok..we took a walk afterwards and enjoyed the pretty morning and talked about the real meaning of Easter and our many blessings...Today is also Papaw Lou's Birthday and he is still sadly missed...but never forgotten :(

A Night in with Friends

We invited the Ranek kiddos over for a fun night in of ordering pizzas, making Bunny Bait, and watching Peter Cottontail. I wanted their Momma & Daddy to have a night out to themselves before she has her knee surgery on Tuesday. We had a fun night with them! Emily loves having friends over...and we def dont mind a house full from time to time :)

Cherries Jubilee Smoothies

Today Emily wanted to go to Steak & Shake for a shake. We compromised on one of my all time favorite smoothies when I noticed that I had all of the ingredients including some frozen cherries left over from Spencer Farms lastyear. Although we will be needing to get more...

 I just thought we would share our favorite semi tart treat .
3/4 cup tart cherry juice
1 tbsp honey
1/2cup milk
1 cup cherries (stemmed pitted chopped)
1 cup non-fat vanilla frozen yogurt
1/2tsp vanilla extract
*optional* Chia seeds

Blend all together in blender

Evening out with Mamaw

Since Mommy had an appointment to get her hair done, it was a great opportunity for Emily to spend the evening out with Mamaw. They went to see the Easter Bunny at the Mall, Build a Bear, and to meet up with Mamaw's friend Sharon for a mexican dinner. Thanks Mom for taking Emily out for a fun evening!
