Bye Bye Blue Wall

So, the for sale by owner thing wasn't really working out and after much thought and referrals we have moved forward with a realator. We have really begun getting our home ready to sell and even listened to our realators suggestion to get rid of our Aggie BLUE wall for viewing purposes. Skylar got right on it and of course had some fun with it as Kylee and her friend wanted to help! It became quite the creative painting job.We have spent multiple hours cleaning and recleaning for photo shoots and for realators to come see it. The showing process really hasn't begun yet and I'm not sure I can lift another finger in order to have this place imaculate. However, the carpets been stretched, are windows are sparkly clean, are walls are gorgeous, a massive sign is in our front yard and we are ready for YOU to send anyone you can think of our way! Check us out on the MLS listing and get your minds a thinkin of anyone you know that wants a gorgeous townhome in the "sweetest place on earth." This all becomes a lot harder when you love the place and home you live in and don't want to give it up let alone for a cheeper price than expected...come on ECONOMY!

OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY 1-4

This is Kylee's SAD face for you

An up side to all of this is that the faux painting on our walls is considered a $1,500 up grade and each realator thought it was professionally done. You've heard me ramble about finding something to do when my girls are both in school and maybe I've discovered a new part-time business...

If all things in Life could come this easy...

Well, she did it. I thought the process may take at least a little while but I was definitely wrong. After spending all of about 10 minutes Kylee learned how to ride a two wheeler! About 2 weeks ago Sklar headed out with her on a windy afternoon so they only spent about 5 min outside but aparently that is all it took. I went out for a quick viewing and was shocked at how much balancing she already had. We pulled out the camera the next day so I could capture the learning process on tape but never really caught it. I thought you might see Skylar's hand still on the bike a little bit or a timid slightly nervous Kylee but take a look for yourself...she was already off.

I know I sound like a cheese ball!!! but what can I say? I was a proud Mom that just expected it to take a little time. Hey, we're supposed to be proud parents and at least there is no questioning on how proud I was. We thought grandparents would be teaching her this summer when she was 5 but I guess we can already check this off the list. I still can't get over how fast my little girl is growing up. Of course soon after learning she already rode down to the pond with Dad on his scooter...looks like we've got a good Father's Day gift in the making. Time for these two to head off on bike rides.

Thankful the celebration is more than 1 Day!

As you can see, the mobs of people didn't stop Kylee and Addy from still filling their baskets at the local egg hunt put on by Hershey. We couldn't believe how many people showed up, many of which were tourists here for Spring Time at Hershey Park. Our little town was hopping with excitement over the weekend and we are always amazed at the attraction Hershey gets. I was nervous that we weren't even going to make it as my normal 5 minute drive to the outlets took over 10 and there wasn't a single parking space available.......THANK YOU so much MOM! Grandma bailed us out as the girls and I jumped out and she hunted for a spot to park.

We had a good time! Lexi was more focused with eating the candy as she went than trying to collect it and had a grin from cheek to cheek with each bite. Some of her top words currently are open, chocolate and candy. Kylee and I were pleasantly surprised when we saw bags of mini cadberry eggs on the ground which are both hers and my FAVORITE! I of course encouraged her to collect as many of them as she could and she definitely obliged...I think we came home with at least 15 bags.
We are just glad there is Easter Celebration going on more than one day! Alexis woke up early Easter morning throwing up for the first time. The poor girl proceeded to do so at least 10 more times throughout the day and spent a lot of her time resting like this. We were thankful my parents were intown and helped with a church swap so Sky and I could still fulfill our callings. Our energetic Lexi tried to be a part of as much as should could and was sad to see me slip the candy out of her eggs during our egg hunt and later in the day even threw up right in the middle of their basket hunting. She slept most of the day yesterday and is sleeping today away as well. When she is finally better we hope to repeat Easter for her and Kylee said she would be the Easter Bunny and hide eggs for her.
The two of them didn't wear their Easter dresses together but they had fun with their new tutu's that "crafty" mom (always with grandma's encouragement) made for them as an Easter surprise! Lexi still had some energy and we made the most of it. They were spoiled like always between a care package in the mail from Nana with fun toys, new fancy dogs with their own carry cases from grandma & grandpa and still Easter baskets as well. We started a new tradition that we hope the Easter bunny will carry on and that is sending Ky on a scavenger hunt with clues to find her Easter basket. It was just great watching Kylee, Aunt Heather, and Lexi go from clue to clue. Thanks Mom & Dad for coming up 2 weekends in a row. We love having you and will sure miss it next year. Hope you all had an excellent Easter!
