We made the plans to go to my mom's for Easter weekend for several reasons as you will read. We spent two days packing so we could leave at a decent time Thursday after the kids were out of school. We were only on the road for about two hours when Jaren's stomach gave out. Then it was Talon's turn and then it was Beau's. Elody was crying because she was sick of her car seat. This is the point, only half way there, that I was asking myself, 'Why am I doing this???' Most of the stomach contents made it into bags, but some did not. I did have a container of wipes with me and put it to good use. We realized we didn't start out our trip with a prayer, so at that point we had our prayer and everything was fine after that.
The next day, Friday, as soon as it was noon, we were in the pool. It was a little bit cold, be we got use to it quick enough. The kids had a good time together. We stayed at my sister's house (Jeanette) while my girls stayed at my mom's house because Marni's family lives there. Then the kids did the annual dyeing of the eggs. When we were done with that we had to get ready for Jaren's Baptism! See next post.
