Wednesday evening Dan promised the kids that if they ate a good dinner, they could have a bath in the BIG bathtub. They could not wait!
They thought they were swimming in it!
Yes, Granny was definitely here Wednesday evening when the kids bathed in her big bath tub. She was smiling down on them!
Grandma hid Easter eggs in the basement for the kids to find.
The kids had all of the eggs found in five minutes!
More candy!! Yea!
After church Sunday we went to Wayne, Candi, and Cassidy's house to have lunch and an Easter egg hunt.
The kids had a ball hunting for eggs!
They found eggs in the trees, on the ground, and even in tricky hiding places.
Cassidy found a basket full of eggs!
Papaw helped the kiddos find a few tricky eggs.
Before we had to leave, Grace check out her eggs.
The kids looked SO CUTE when they were ready for church on Sunday, that I HAD to get their picture.
They were acting sweet to each other too. Now that's always worth a pic! Ha!
He left the kids new Crocs and a bag of coffee beans for Mommy and Daddy. Looks like he enjoyed his snack too!
Gabriel was the first one out of bed.
He was pretty excited to get more Cars in his Easter basket.
He checked all of his loot out pretty carefully.
Next, Grace woke up and was pretty excited about her Easter basket.
"Look! It's another egg, Mom!"
Grandma made cards for the kids.
They loved their Easter cards too!
Before bedtime, we put out Easter baskets for the Easter bunny to fill. We also left the Easter bunny a snack of carrots and lemonade.
Gabriel showed Grace a little brotherly love.
They didn't care what time it was . . . they had fun coloring their eggs.
Gabriel was pretty excited about his special green egg.
We dyed the eggs while they were still hot from boiling, so several of them got dropped into the dye instead of gently placed. They were pretty beat up, but oh well!

So . . . who moves on a Wednesday night after work? The Ellnor family does! Tuesday night's storm ripped the power lines and phone lines off the back of our house. Dan spoke with the Duke Energy guys working in our neighborhood Wednesday afternoon, and their estimate for getting our power back on was late Saturday, at the earliest. They said it could take as long as two weeks. YIKES! Dan and Brian had already moved our generator to the other house on Sunday, and moving it back was not going to happen. Dan called me after school Wednesday afternoon, and said, "We're moving . . . now." DOUBLE YIKES! And so . . . more quickly, less organized, and much sooner than we expected . . . we moved in Wednesday evening. We only have the essentials right now, but Dan will be working on getting us moved completely next week. What a hectic week it's been! 
Dan's mission this past weekend was to get the garage and shed cleaned out as much as possible. Brian brought his truck over and helped.
While Grace napped at Grandma and Papaw's house, Gabriel helped Daddy and Uncle Brian clean up and pack the garage and shed. He was such an eager little helper. 
My poor baby girl at the immediate care center with Daddy. She has strep throat. She feels so bad.
Today was an absolutely b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l day! Daddy took us to Q'doba after church for some lunch so we could sit outside and soak up the sunshine. Great idea, Babe!
Grace was so excited today because she and I were dressed alike. See . . . her dress and my tank top are the same color, and we're both wearing white sweaters.
It should be illegal to be this cute! I love how she shows her dimply grin to her daddy!
Thursday afternoon we went to Dan's cousin Robin's house to see her new baby girl, Vada. Vada is one month old and as precious as can be. Grace could not wait to get her hands on her new baby cousin.
The weather was so beautiful Thursday night that I decided our cardio should come from riding bicycles at Grandma and Papaw's neighborhood.
So the kids rode their bikes to Zesto's and Grandma, Papaw, and I walked behind them.
The kids ordered Big Chills --- it's vanilla soft serve in a slushie. Grace chose strawberry, and Gabriel chose blue raspberry.
After our yummy treats, we rode back to Grandma and Papaw's house.
Grace couldn't finish all of her treat, so Grandma carried it home for her.
