Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!! We've spent the past couple of days celebrating Easter. We had a fun egg hunt at church yesterday afternoon, colored eggs last night, had a wonderful church service this morning, followed by an egg hunt at home after lunch. It's been a busy time around here! The boys looked absolutely adorable all dressed up this morning. Of course, the ties were off and everything was wrinkled by the time we got home. K was especially happy (check out that cheesy grin!!) to wear his tie, since he picked out his shirt/tie ensemble. H looked so grown up and the green really played up his super dark brown eyes and sweet little A was as cute as ever.

We also said goodbye to our foster mastiff, Lizzie, yesterday. She was a wonderful addition to the family and we would have loved to adopt her, if we were staying in the states. We never thought we'd find another female dog that we could love like our dogue de bordeaux, Trinity, that passed away last year, but Lizzie was a real joy to have around. She was an angel with the kids and perfect in the house. The slobber was back, and trust me, she could sure sling it, but she had a personality that made you overlook the drool. She was just a love bug and I miss her so much already. Her new adoptive family is a perfect match and I'm sure she will be very happy there. H seemed pretty sad about it, but we were upfront with him about it when we decided to become foster parents. He knew the day would come when it was time to say goodbye, and he knew that Lizzie will be loved and happy.

Other than all that, it's been kind of nice around here. C is home, and just graduated from his medical training. He had a class barbecue the other day, and the boys really enjoyed playing. H ran into a brick wall and cut his cheek (as you can see in the Easter pic), and really did a number on his glasses. Thank goodness they are new and still under warranty!! I'm going to try and start some spring cleaning/sorting this week, since H is on spring break and I won't be running around so much. I really need to start working on figuring out what will be going with us and what will be stored or sold. It's kind of crazy to think that we'll be moving again, and so far away, but we look forward to our new adventure.
