Something to Celebrate: Moment to Remember.

I had to take a minute to sit down & recap my day. I think this very well may have been one of my favorite days I've had in a long time. Started off pretty usual, Sunday morning trying to pull myself out of bed, get everyone ready for church... and it was sunny so we wanted to make the early service. I just have to make a side note, that Karly & I were dressed & ready to go WAYYY before Daddy was ;) just saying! Oh & I made him breakfast, and I don't mean just coffee. I was a woman on a mission. lol. ok back to the point. We had planned to go to Eckert's Easter Egg-citement, it was a gorgeous day for it, we even took my cousin along for a little extra fun. We really did have the best time- hunting eggs, petting baby animals, just enjoying the day together. Karly went from hating the Easter bunny to being totally obsessed with it, she was actually asked to leave the bunny & give someone else a turn (this is huge people!).

It felt like my world was all aligning again.

We have made it a tradition since my parents live so far away that we do dinner together every Sunday evening (haha, they live 7 houses down from us, same street) just a little tradition we have started. So what better day to break out the grill!? But I did have one panic moment. I am making burgers, went to add some garlic powder & the cap was not on tight-- the entire spice jar was now in our burgers! AHHHH. No worries we worked it out. Dinner was delish.

The real topper was everyone sitting around playing games and just enjoying life together. We ended the night with a game of baseball in our yard with Great Grandma cheering up on from her chair. It was one of those moments that I hope & pray I never forget. I am so thankful for my parents for so many reasons, but the thing I love most is that they gave me an amazing childhood. To see them (not so spring chickens anymore) running & playing ball with my baby girl just makes me so happy; and yet also seeing how happy it makes them, makes me happy. My heart was in a state of bliss. It was just a moment I want to always remember!

Oh and I think I might need to sign Kar up for something that involves hitting a ball, holy cow the girl has a swing on her! any suggestions out there for a 3 yr old?
