The Ugly Egg
What came first the Ugly Egg or the Ugly Duckling?
When I was growing up it was tradition in the Watson house to hold Easter egg dying contests, there were many divisions, but the most coveted title was that of the Ugliest Egg. So we continue on in tradition. Each person picks one egg to try and make it as ugly as they can. Sometimes in your attempt you may make a pretty egg or original egg instead of an ugly egg. This is not as easy as it sounds! (When I was a kid my dad was the champion almost every year!) So once again this year I ask you my blogging neighbors to assist in the vote for the ugliest egg. Leave us a comment and let us know what you think.

Village People Egg Hunt
The Village People. That is what we call ourselves here in our gated community. Because it is after all called "the village". Anyway we had our annual Village Easter Egg hunt. The kids LOVE hunting for eggs. I mean who doesn't, right?
The dynamic duo. Excitement before the hunt.

Little Reader
Last month Garrett started getting books sent home with him as preschool homework. So exciting! He is excited when he gets to bring home a new book. We have been very proud of how well he is doing. I can't believe he is growing up so fast!
He has a sign off sheet, once he has read a book at least 3 times you can sign it off, send it to school and he comes home with a new one.

2 of the Seven Dwarves: Grumpy and Happy
The other day Garrett was a little crabby around dinner time so I sent him to his room until he was ready to eat. Embrie was sitting at the table eating when I came back.
Embrie: "Garrett in trouble"
Me: " no he is just grumpy right now"
Embrie: " he is grumpy like this ..."
that is when I look at her and she is making her best "grumpy face", ha ha! I had to giggle. She hit it spot on.
However when I decided I wanted to re-tell this story I asked her to make a grumpy face for this picture and this was about the best I could get out of her which just kind of comes off as a devious smile.
When I asked Garrett to give me and Embrie an example of a grumpy face he came up with a pretty good one. This is what he really looked like the night before. :)
