back tracking...

i FORGOT that i didn't post the rest of our Easter trip!

After the YUMMY crawfish at my brother's on Good Friday, we headed to MIL's (mother in law's).

We, if you remember, were to do the Cresent City Classic on Saturday.

WELL...after lots of back and forth about doing it or not (we hadn't stopped to think just HOW long the littles would be in the jogger), we had plans for my friend Evelyn, to keep them.

it was a LONG thursday night with Drew up half the night. it was an even LONGER night with Drew up until 3 a.m. before he was EXHAUSTED enough to crash. (the next night wasn't as bad, but NOT good either!)

We were suppose to wake up at 6, have the kids to Evelyn by 6:30, pick up Boudreaux (Matt, her husband) and head to the race. WELL...THREE hours of not good sleep was SO not enough for us to be able to go do a race we had not even trained for! so, we didn't do it.

Saturday we hung out around the house with Lance's brother and niece, the kids played outside for a long time. Another brother came over during his lunch and they ate and we again hung out in the yard.

Later that evening Lance, the littles and myself headed out to have dinner at New Orleans Hamburger. YUMMY...Shrimp poboy is what i ate! i had every intention of getting a grilled chicken salad, since i'm trying really hard to shed some weight. I don't know WHAT happened. I opened my mouth and 'Shrimp poboy' came out.

Sunday was Easter and MIL's b-day (we won't say HOW old though). The boys got their basket when they woke up and played with their gifts. Later, 1:49 p.m. to be exact, was the party. the BLUE party. EVERYTHING was blue. There was cake and ice cream, ballons and hats, and party blowers....

The kids had an easter egg hunt later on.

Later that evening. we packed up and headed home.

Home. Sweet. Home.

and a MUCH better night of SLEEP!
