Fun Easter Weekend With Family...

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Our 2 daughters, Courtney and Kelsie and Courtney's boyfriend Courtland, came home from school for the Easter holiday. Love it when the house is full!! Lots of food and laughs.

Here are a few pictures from the weekend...I know I'll get a text from the girls as soon as they see this post!!

Pretty as ever for Easter.



Then the fooling around starts waiting for daddy to come out for a family picture!!






Why didn't they go to acting school? LOL


We finally found daddy for the picture.


but laughing continues...it gets much worse after this, but I'll spare you.


Courtney and Courtland visiting at Grammy and Grampy's.


Blowing up some peeps!!


The before and after puff!!


Courtney also found a heart in her potato chip this weekend!


Baked Alaska was a request...so here's my first attempt!




Yummy with strawberries!


Always sad when the kids leave and go back to school, but they'll be home mid May!

Hope you have a great day today,
~Karen~

  1. I never heard of blowing up peeps. Any instruction? Do you still eat them afterwards or is it just for fun?

  2. Looks like you had a great weekend. Your daughters are lovely, and the peeps, well, what can you say about the peeps! One of our area newspapers has a annual contest where the peeps are center stage, literally. The dioramas are amazing. here is a link if you are interested. It is called The Peep Show

  3. What a wonderful time with your family! Your girls are lovely and seem to have tons of charm - just like their mom, right?

    That Baked Alaska sure does look yummy!!! I've never made it either, but it's tempting. As for the potato chip, what can I say - an epiphany?!? hehehe

  6. What a beautiful family. Only one of of college children cam home...boo! Our son had a test this morning. He sent me a picture of the church yesterday to prove he went. (LOL!) We had a wonderful week-end with our daughter. Our kids save peeps for camping then roast them over the campfire. (YIKES!)

  10. Beautiful family Karen. My daughter came home too, much to the delight of my 8 year old who thinks she has hung the moon! My 18 year old boy was no where to be seen though! Funny how that works out. When they are home, we never see them. Then when they leave, they always come home! It was fun for us too. I love having her home.

  16. What a beautiful family, Karen. Glad to see you had kiddos home for the holiday. I have never tried Baked Alaska...was it hard to make? My 18 year old son puffed and repuffed his peeps in the micro - they keep puffing up many times...as long as they cool inbetween.

  17. Family is absolutely the "best!" It's so much fun to see older kiddos still able to have fun & be silly. Looks like you had a great time!
