Easter 2010










Ah the annual Deucher Easter Candy Hunt! Its not so much an egg hunt, or a hunt at all since candy is just spread all over the yard, but the kids love it. Parker and Spenc were at baseball practice so they missed out on the loot.

Spenc & his snake







Spenc got a ball python for his 10th bday, and its actually a really cool pet! Never thought I'd like a snake...

Cake











I've never made a cake for my kids birthdays. I usually leave that to the professionals, but I decided to take a crack at it for Vannas bday. Here's my version of a bear cake :) She even made a bear at Build a Bear that looked like her cake!

Vanna Baptism










What a special experience to have my only daughter baptized! Helping her get dressed and seeing how excited she was is something I'll never forget. She truly was princess for a day!

Build a Bear party











build a bear was a super fun party! The kids loved it. Zachy was so happy to be included with all the girls.

Savannahs 8th Bday







For the last year, Vanna has been asking to get her ears pierced. I had to wait til I was 12, so I told her thats how long she'll have to wait. She's pointed out many girls that are younger than she is and many babies who already have their ears pierced, while she will have to wait til shes 12, which may as well be forever! So on her 8th bday I picked her up from school and suprised her with the news that we're going to the mall to pierce her ears. She made many phone calls after to tell how brave she was that she didnt even flinch when they pierced them. I've had many regrets since piercing them, since she is so diligent about cleaning them 3 times a day like they told her. She's driving me crazy with "Mom, we need to do my ears!"
