SOME BUNNY IS PRETTY CUTE!!!

Here is just a quick peek 
of our Easter get-together.
We met in Sheboygan, WI at the
Blue Harbor Resort.

The first thing we saw was
THE EASTER BUNNY.
Baby Bright Eyes
 could not keep her hands off him.
Here he is making his get-away~
Sadly, her Mama does not like her at all
as you can plainly see!
The Blue Harbor Resort
is beautiful-inside and out.
It is the halfway mark for our families to meet.
The brunch was delicious
but the best part was watching the kids
hang out together.

The kids all looked beautiful.
What I love about this picture of Lulu
is the way her Dad is gazing at her
from the side.
I don't know that I have ever seen a 
Daddy that loves his girls more than
Allen does.

Lulu set her hair on PIN CURLS the night before.
When she woke up she said she looked like
MEDUSA!
Look at the light fixture behind her...
She DOES look like Medusa here!  
She is going to hate me for this.
Anyway,
I think she looks adorable.
She is only 12  and you can already see
the young woman she is going to be.
I think Daddy is going to be fighting off the boys
before too many years go by.
Ria looked so pretty, too
Sorry- the place was so bright
it was almost impossible to get pictures..
She loves her little cousin
Charles In Charge.
Big Boy E is so adorable.
There is something about him 
that reminds me of my Dad.
He just looks so Irish to me.
Our SweetCheeks was not feeling very well
but she smiled so Mom could take her picture.
Can you believe how big she is getting?

After we ate we went to another room to see
The Balloon Lady.
Big Boy E was fascinated 
watching her create 
A LION 
for him.
Sweet Cheeks was still not feeling well 
but she perked up when she
The Balloon Lady
made her a penguin.
Isn't that amazing balloon art?

I tried to get all the kids together
to take a group photo.
As you can see, 
the top of Lulu's head is missing.
We'll just say she had her head in the clouds....
The one my daughter took is a bit better-
except one kid is hidden behind the red balloon
and one kid in the front has a squiggly face
and SweetCheeks is looking at the penguin,
other than that-it's a great picture.
And, on the way out,
we caught my oldest son,
Mr. Elusive
that hates the camera almost as much as I do
sitting on the bench with his three nieces.
As you can see, when we said 
"Look at your Mom,"
three girls looked at THEIR Mom
and Mr. Elusive looked at me!
Hellllllllllloooooooo?  ummm......never mind....
Anyway, it was a great day
and I will leave you with just one more bit of sweetness.
Baby Bright Eyes
loving on her Elmo balloon.
She is SO CUTE I just can't
STAND IT!

Oh- and one more
CUTE SHOT~
MyHero can put his 
bunny ears away for another year.
The cotton tail can go, too!

I have some big news coming up
later this week so 
STAY TUNED!

  1. Such fun photos! Such a gorgeous place to meet up and enjoy time/memories together. My mom always did her hair in pin curls! Everyone looks great and I do love the balloon art. I imagine you need some rest today. Hope you are feeling better.

  8. It looks like you had a nice Easter. All those beautiful grandchildren made your day, I'm sure. And Mr. Elusive is quite handsome. I don't know why he's camera shy. And I used to tie balloons. As did two of my sons. Only they tied balloons at your table at various restaurants. It's a good way to make a lot of money quick in tips. And - blowing up the balloons strengthened their bronchial tubes and has cured their asthma. :-)

  18. Enjoy your Pictures dear friend.

    All looked pretty. Someone should of take your picture sweet gal. I bet you looked beautiful too.

    I am under the weather still but decided to comment three people's blogs and your 's of course.

    The checkered dress Sweet Cheeks wears or her dress. I had similar when I was young women. We visited and back then my dad wanted me to dress like a lady. Looks silly in a row boat. I was bored with adult talk.

  32. What a fun day you had! Great pictures of all your family. It's so nice that you are able to drive half way to meet them.. Now that's how it should be, that is if you can! :) Those balloons are way too cute! You have to be very talented to do that and to actually know what kind of animal it is. My balloons would all look like waded up balls... :)

    I can't wait to read what your surprise is! I hope you have a great week! Hugs, Amy

  39. aahh, look at Bright Eyes looking so curious of the Easter bunny. It sounds like you had a very nice Easter, Diana. Love SweetCheeks balloon penguin, how clever. This is a great picture of all the kids. It reminds me so much of one that we took years ago of all the cousins, and the oldest cousin was holding the baby, just like Lulu is in this photo. And Ria's smile warms my heart every time.

    I'm just cleaning up today, and was blessed to have all my family here for Easter.

    love, ~Sheri

    oh, and thanks for the card - I loved it! It was perfect with the birds and the red flowers. :~)

  61. What a beautiful family you have. I used to roll my daughters hair in rags and it looked so similar to your granddaughters pin curls. Just gorgeous! I gravitated towards that man with the bunny ears but then I remembered your warning.....So I have to thank you again for saving me! hehe.

  65. Happy Easter! The kids look so cute! I like the Medusa hair. Natural texture is very very very popular right now; so much so that I've even had a few clients ask me about perms! God help me I may need to retire way early. The resort looks like the Coronado!
