Easter

We had a wonderful Easter at 2 houses. We went to Grammy's for brunch, then home for nap, then to the Brittons for dinner. It was such a beautiful day, and Owen scored on 2 egg hunts. He would say "happy birthday" when he opened an egg (I think he thought it was kinda like a piñata).

I'm so grateful to live 20 minutes away from most of our family! It is so fun on holidays to be able to share them with both sides even in the same day.

I made green bean casserole from canned beans from our garden last sept. it was really good... Ha I used organic cream of mushroom soup then went for the highly processed yet difficult to reproduce onion crunchies in a can. I have made decent ones before but without a kitchen burner it would be quite impossible this year.

The electrical work in the kitchen is almost done. We have 5 can lights, 2 above island lights, dimmers!!!, and soon to be plumbed gas line for converting the range from electrical to gas!!

Chris has his work cut out for him. As soon as the electrical and gas work is done Chris needs to move a heater vent, put Sheetrock up, remove nasty popcorn ceiling in the dining room, re texture... Repaint... Is that all? All before the slated install of cabinets 4/26! I'm hoping everything will be in (or close!) by Mother's Day... We will see!
