B-day Dinner

On Friday my loving husband took me to dinner for my b-day, we went to this place I having been wanting to try. Its called Pavil over off Huebner and 1604, they serve this drink I have been dieing to try called Absinthe.... my friend Ryan went to Amsterdam and he had the really stuff, its a liquor that green and tastes like black lickerish and the really stuff has some herbal Hallucinogens in it. But here in the states the government doesn't allow the Hallucinogen Herb which was fine i wanted to try the experience bc they bring out your shot and place a spoon with holes all through it on top off the glass. Then one sugar cube on the spoon then there's an Ice water drip that dissolves the sugar into the drink. Its SO elaborate and fun! Also the food at Pavil was awesome... I got Sea Scallops with asparagus, and sliced and cooked potatoes, Alex got the New York strip... It was good too. But I liked mine better I'm a sea food girl.
My dinner....
Me @ dinner

This is the cool Absinthe thing.....
P.s no pictures of Alli she had special time with my parents, and these pictures suck bc they were taken with my Iphone.

Dyeing Easter Eggs

On Wednesday after our LONG HOT WALK we dyed Easter eggs, it was fun. I bought this big kit that has everything you could want/ need to make fun Easter eggs. This kit came with glitter, foil, glue, small beads, sponges, paint brushes, stickers, the clear crayon, bands you put around the eggs, and of course the color tablets. We had a great time coloring egg, and Bennett sat in her chair and watched us.


Dad dropped his egg... he was so mad ha it was a little funny, there was red dye all over the counter and floor.

Bennett just chill on the island with us she was watching the craziness of egg dying.

All adding glitter to her yellow dyed egg.

The beginning of my awesome egg, I used bands so the egg would dye in those parts then I used purple and blue dye half on color half the other color then I sponged glitter paint over the colors. After my egg was dry I took off the bands and dunked it in yellow dye and the parts that were white turned yellow really cute!

The final product!!!! Aren't the pretty!!!!

One Hot Walk!

On Wednesday Bennett and I took a very long walk.... we walked to pick Alli up from school. Her School is a little under 1 mile from our house.... The walk was really nice when the wind was blowing, when the wind stopped..... it was HOT!!! I checked the temp when we got back home and it was only 80 outside but it felt so much HOTTER. When I got to Allis school and told her we were walking home she didn't believe me, ha it was true. Later that day I had told my parents and Alex I had walked to pick up Alli and then we walked home no one wanted to believe me. Crazy people what they think I make this junk up noooooo.

These two picture are Bennett when we got home she was all hot so I striped her down and put diaper wipes on her. She loved it



Alli after the walk she had rolled her pants up before we left her school.
