Week(s) in Review

I missed a lot on here!  We had visitors!  My mom, my sister, her family.  Lots of fun and lots of exhaustion.

 

 

We tried to take group photos.  It was hard.

 



Easter happened.  There were eggs.

I ran my first 10k.  It went pretty well.  And I got to have my sister cheer me on, even though the weather was fairly lacking.

Also this, just because.

And on this Easter-ish note, Porter officially does not believe in Santa or the Easter bunny or any other mythical gift giver.  He has recently been taking great pride in pointing out all the things we said were from Santa, but were really from yoooouuuuuuu.  He seems to be happy to be in on this secret though, and I think he has finally realized that he has to stop talking about it in front of his sisters.  I've been suspecting these thoughts from him for a while, and really, I enjoy not having to fake it for him anymore.  But it is one more way that he is growing up.  And there is no stopping it.

Happy Easter

We enjoyed Easter with some great friends, great food, many children and an egg hunt in the yard. I just may have had one more glass of wine than was prudent. And stayed up way too late. But it was worth it.

I'm Cooking: I made a Brown Sugar and Mustard Glazed Ham for Easter. I love ham, but I'd never actually made a whole one before. This recipe was fantastic. Every last piece was eaten. And I still have the bone to make soup with today.

Thanks to Amy for the pea and radish salad and Lori for the egg bread. And to everyone else for such crazy goodness as an asparagus tart, scalloped potatoes, a whole turkey, wild rice salad, strawberry shortcake and apple pie!
