Easter 2014

-
Well michael and I were both home for Good Friday.  The boys, who go to Christian school, were not.  Sam had an egg scheduled for that morning while Finn moped around, bummed that he got to do was take a spelling test.



Michael and I had planned to go watch Sam hunt eggs with his class, but we were too late.  Instead, we had lunch and then went to buy a new bedroom suit for the house.  Michael and I came to the conclusion that we needed a King sized bed, given how awful I am to sleep with.

On Friday night we went to the Friday night Easter Service at our church. 

On Saturday we attended Henry's 1st birthday party at David and Sharon's house, then we back to the Saturday night Easter Service at our church.  This go around I keep the nursery.

On Sunday we went to church with Gran and Pa.  Sam and Finn both sat mostly quiet during the entire service.  Sam was being very sweet and wanted me to hold him the entire time.  He really got into singing the Hymns.  He did a surprisingly good job at "Christ the Lord is Risen Today."  During the service Sam colored.  Since Finn is in Kindergarten we made him sit up straight and listen to the sermon.  He was devastated that Sam got to color and he did not.  He let out three (3) big sighs of frustration and then settled into his new fate.  

After church we went to Gran's for lunch and an egg hunt.  Henry found the golden egg.

Ghouls at Grassmere

Yesterday we took the boys to Ghouls at Grassmere.  Day started out pretty traumatic for Sam.  He wanted to go out and play.  He started to notice that there were several little worms on the porch.  He was terrified that the worms were going to get him so he sat in the porch swing with me for almost an hour.  Finn spent his time finding worms and then stepping on them.  Michael doesn't like for Finn to kill worms because they aren't hurting anything.  I reminded Finn of this fact and told him not to kill any more worms.  After a few minutes I start to hear more crunching.  I decide to take a different approach.  I told Finn, "Finn - the momma worm is going to be so sad because you killed the baby."  He looks at me and said, "don't worry mom - I'm gonna kill the momma too."  So much for the guilt trip. After a nap, it was time to start getting ready for the Zoo.  We started with the tights.  I bought Finn little girl...

The Fourth of July

Well the Begley clan had a pretty big Fourth of July celebration. Finn and I started the day by making a quick run to Wal-Mart to pick up some oatmeal. Then we got ready for our day with with Emily, Zac, Coop, Hank, Nana and Papa. We all met over at Em's house for a little playing, a little swimming and a lot of eating. When we first got there we all sat upstairs and watched the boys play in Cooper's playroom. Finn was absolutely amazed at all the toys. Then we decided to go to the pool. After getting the boy lathered up, we all loaded in the back of Zac's truck like the Clampetts and headed to the pool. With respect to those who would rather not be seen in a bathing suit on the blog, I have omitted the swimming pictures. We didn't get to swim too terribly long because it started looking like it was going to storm so we were only out for an hour. Once we got back home we had dinner. Greg made the best ribs I have ever put in my mouth. To end the evening Finn an...

High Ankle Sprain

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.
