Easter Pictures

We had a wonderful time collecting eggs and visiting with the Easter Bunny at church on Sunday. Princess TD was not so thrilled to stop and have her picture taken with her brother. Overall the kids had 4 egg hunts and collected more candy than they do at Halloween! It was a great Easter, made even better by Mr. TD being home and not traveling.

A Project

This post is for the Senior Engineer who assisted, by phone, in this project!

This past weekend, Mr. TD went to wash his hands at the kitchen sink and the lever to the faucet broke off. This was Saturday afternoon, and he was leaving town on Monday....we definately had a time limit on this repair project.

Anyway, our neighbor was kind enough to help us out by supplying us with a shiny new faucet from the plumbing supply store where he works, at his cost. We were able to purchase a nice new faucet and get it installed on Sunday. It was a realatively easy fix, at least as far as our repair projects have gone. It only took about 2 hours and 1 call to the Sr. Engineer! So here it is:

I can only hope that this is not the beginning of all of the original fixtures breaking in our home.

We've been busy...

We had a suprise visit from Grammie last week. It was fun to visit with her and to have her here for a week. We were able to get Mrs. TD and Little TD a late birthday gift from Grammie. He chose a 3-wheeled scooter like Princess TD's (sort of). He got the hang of it right away. Mrs. TD chose clothes and bargain clothes at that! You gotta love a great sale!

Here's Princess TD & Little TD practicing their scooters in the grass. Princess TD is just thrilled that Mrs. TD made her dress and matching headband! (No, I am really not that creative...it's from Jo Ann's!) You gotta love the leg kicks!

Here's more of the scooter kids!

We took Grammie to our church playgroup trip to the HMNS Butterfly Exhibit. Little TD and Mrs. TD got to see a butterfly emerge from his chrysalis. Princess TD was busy matching bugs, so she missed it. They did have a good time chasing the butterflies around the trails. Here they are as we were leaving the butterflies.

Update...

Well, I haven't posted any pictures or updates in a while. Mr. TD has been out of town a lot over the past few weeks. For the last couple of weeks, we have all been down with the flu. It was rough for us all. Now I am trying to break the kids of video watching all day long. Watching DVD's was about all Mom could muster with a high fever. I promise to take pictures soon and get them posted. It should be nice the next few days, so we can go outside and play and hopefully get some cute pictures. I just wanted to let everyone know we were still here and feeling better.

Mrs. TD

P.S. Thanks for all the birthday wishes...it's great to be 29 again!
