EASTER

I have been trying to keep a letter for Porter telling him about each year of his life. (I'm off to a good start, but it isn't that hard with one child who is only one!) As I was working on it last night, I realized that however dull or insignificant my blog posts seem, they are invaluable to me in my record keeping and scrapbooking. So for now, I've decided to keep the blog, but probably just do one giant post a month to keep myself from worrying about posting or spending too much time on the computer. Which I confess, I am extremely guilty of between work, deal finding, and just the unnecessary "surfing". So I'm cutting back, but not stopping for now. Tom thinks I did this for attention, but really I'm just looking back at my New years Resolutions and trying to get perspective back in my life.

Easter was a wonderful holiday and we got some great pictures of Porter. On saturday after Tom got home from 4-wheeling, we decorated eggs. In my family this is quite an event because we each dye at least a dozen eggs for the egg fight. Porter didn't have a clue what was going on and wanted to throw his "ball" in the egg dye. Church was great followed by a crazy egg hunt and a good Easter dinner. I don't eat ham, so my mom also made a turkey which was delicious. Porter got to participate in the hunt this year, although I am not so sure he knew what was even going on. He was just happy to be outside running around. The kid would live outside if he could. Today he was bawling at the door wanting to go out in the pouring rain!
