Making a Marriage is like Making a Quilt



"Anna says,
When making a quilt you have to choose your combination carefully.
The right choices will enhance your quilt.
The wrong choices will dull the colors, hide their original beauty.
There are no rules you can follow.
You have to go by instinct, and you have to be strong...."

Easter Party at School


Ellie and Abby

Ellie and Abby

Ellie's annual Easter Egg Hunt and party was this afternoon at her school. She's wanted us to take a picture of her with her friends - Paige, Emma, Abby & Jessica. Her friend, Paige, left early today to spend the day with her grandmother so here is Ellie with her other good friend, Emma. They collected eggs that were hidden in the playground, had a party with cupcakes, fruit, chips, cheese and juice boxes. And as you can see Ellie made bunny ears, that she was happy to wear!
