We've had a really fun couple of days. Thursday night we ate at Baja Burrito with Katey Earles and then went to see Robots. The girls enjoyed it and we did too--aside from the 5 trips to the potty for Ella who is now officially potty trained. PRAISE GOD!!

Katey and my mom came back over yesterday and we went to the Mall so my mom could buy the girls their Easter dresses (a tradition now). It was fun being together. Katey has become another adopted sister. She hung out at our house all day yesterday and kept our kids last night while Sheryl and I went out with Gail and Chris to Basantes and then to Bongo Java. It's fun to be with family.

Speaking of family--Amanda, who I've written about many times before, has hooked us up with tickets to Nashville Star this Tuesday. She works for CMT and knows the right people. Yee-Hawww! I am excited to see how it sounds live instead of on TV. You know things like American Idol and Nashville Star HAVE to sound better live because some of those singers who are so off key never seem to know. (Sarah Evans included. I've never heard her on TV in her many performances where she wasn't completely off key. How did she get a record deal?)

We're getting ready to leave for the OC Easter Egg hunt. Maddie has asked me 10 times in the last ten minutes when she can put her dress on. It's still an hour and a half away. That girl. Ella would go naked for all she cares.

Have a great weekend! Tomorrow we get to celebrate what Jesus has done for us as we should all the time. The difference is, there's a sense of expectation--from believers and seekers. It's a different kind of weekend. How exciting! THEN we get to chow down on Honey Baked Ham at my mom's. Hallelujah!
