Happy Easter!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Sunday.

We dressed up in our Sunday's best for an early church service

and then a fun Easter egg hunt.

Sunday evening we dressed down to join the Norton's for a lovely Easter dinner.

BOO!

For Greta's first Halloween,

we decided to keep things simple, with a hint of cliche.

She went to daycare as Minnie Mouse yesterday,

but due to some predicted inclement weather 

they moved their Halloween celebration to today.

I made her white tutu from a yard of tulle cut into thin strips

and knotted onto a stretchy headband (the kind you wear to workout).

The eyes are just cut from black foam

and taped onto her onesie.

Easy peasy.

Maybe next year we will put more thought and effort into her costume,

but considering I can't eat any of the candy this year due to all our current food allergies

and she will be in bed before the bulk of trick-or-treaters head out,

it just didn't seem worth it this year.

Happy Halloween, again!!

P.S. Minnie's date with Mickey was fun.

The date started strong with lots of curious excitement.

Mickey definitely took the lead and pursued Minnie.

At first, she was flattered and possibly interested,

but that was quickly trumped by distracting hunger pangs and tiredness.

Boo at the Zoo

For Greta's first Halloween, 

we decided to go to the zoo for the self-proclaimed

"World's largest Halloween party!"

It was freaking FREEZING,

but we bundled up and made the best of it.

The decorations were so creative and well-made.

We can't wait to make this an annual tradition

with the Norton clan.

How fun will it be to watch these babes grow up together!

^^^ Minnie Mouse was still feeling a little under the weather, ^^^

so I didn't put on her full costume. It was just too cold for all that nonsense.

^^^ Is E not the cutest little minion you ever did see? ^^^

^^^ Bet your bottom dollar on the little one in the blue checkers. ^^^

^^^ We go together like cavemen and dinosaurs. ^^^

Happy Halloween, y'all!!

Pass the Matzoh!

 

Happy Passover!

 

We will be attending a very abbreviated seder at my Mimi's house tonight.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day

to you and yours!

I hope you have a sweet one.
