More Easter
I had also wanted to post some more pictures from Easter, but I couldn't get them to load in my original Easter post...so I have another one :)
For my trifle for Easter, I used bits of a Tastefully Simple recipe I found on the website for the Absolutely Almond Pound Cake and bits from a friends recipe that I had at one of her parties. Having the trifle at her party and having the pound cake on had gave me the idea to make this for Easter. I just made the pound cake and cubed it. Then made up vanilla pudding and mixed it with cool whip. Then layered pound cake, pudding / cool whip mixture, then cherry filling, then crushed Hershey bars. I did two layers then chilled before heading out to our Easter lunch. It was so good and easy. Will definitely be making again!!
I found this Easter egg garland on a craft blog that I like to look at. It was so fun to make and easy. Thanks to some paint color samples that I picked up. And I will have all sorts of color samples if I want to paint anything one of these colors :)

The adventures of Ty and Lane
I had forgot to post some "stories" of Lane's personality shining through!
Story #1. I had gotten some packs of strawberries and Lane loves strawberries!! Well I set the packs on the counter when we got home and then went downstairs to switch the laundry. When I came back upstairs this is what I find
In the time it took me to switch the laundry, Lane had pushed his little chair to the counter top and taken a bite out of half the strawberries in one pack. It was so cute to see him standing on his chair when I walked in the kitchen and the look on his face was like "I didnt do any thing" :)
Story #2. We got the boys 2 goldfish for Easter. The boys saw us putting them in the fish bowl and had helped feed them. Well Lane was eating some goldfish crackers and was in the kitchen. I had taken some stuff upstairs and when I came back he had his chair (once again his chair) and pushed it up to the counter and had thrown a handful of goldfish to the fish!! He just looked at me and smiled and said "feeding fish." The goldfish were eating them too. So Im in rush mode to get them taken out and switched to new water as the goldfish just crumbled when I tried to take them out.
Story #3. Ty had named his fish Gelly. At first he named it Ty but I said well you don't want to name him your name, how about pick something else. So he picked Gelly (I think he heard it on Jake and the Neverland Pirates). Well his fish didnt make it much longer after the goldfish incident. So he saw that it was floating. So we flushed it down the toilet. As we are doing this Ty says "We have to flush him down to Heaven. To fish Heaven." Then Ty claimed Lane's fish and renamed him Sharker...well he only made it one more day and Ty said "We better flush him down to Fish Heaven too."
Just so fun hearing what kids say and this will be a good way for me to keep track!!
