So, this past weekend was pretty busy around here. My husband took Thusday off and had Friday off, too and we took advantage of that and got some things done! For a while now, he has been promising the boys that he would build them a treehouse. Between his work and school schedule he hasn’t had much time for it but this weekend, he got A LOT done! The tree looked like this for about 3 weeks:

Then, by the end of the weekend, it looked like this:

It is going to be HUGE when all is said and done! He is going to build a house-like structure on one side and leave the other side open as a deck. My husband is a very hard-worker and once he sets his mind to something, it gets done! Of course, he was incredibly sore this morning as he got up to go to work. :)
On Sunday, we celebrated Easter with my family and had a lot of fun! My parents had put some money in plastic eggs and then we hid them outside for the kids to find. Our dog found a couple though and ate the equivalent of about $0.75.

You can see that look of crazy in her eyes! She’s very sweet but will get into things if we don’t watch her.
For the most part, my boys were fairly underwhelmed by the goodies in their Easter baskets. The one thing that was a big hit was this:

I got it at Target and thought it was so cute!!! It’s a white chocolate duck. Well, yellow chocolate?? Anyway, the boys really enjoyed them the most and I’ve been picking at the things they deemed not good enough to eat. Maybe next year I will include somethings I know I’ll like. LOL
This coming weekend, I have big plans and will have tons of pictures to share next week!!! Hope you had a wonderful weekend!
