Attack of the Flying Monkies!!

Let me start by saying that Easter this year was totally rockin! We had an honorary monk, Victoria- and her mom and dad- Ashley and Mikie, to visit and it was a wild time. There was an invasion of really huge flies in our house too. Random, I know?!? Just today I killed and picked up about 40 of these buggers, which are about the size of horse flies but thankfully don't bite. All weekend we were all fly-sassins and trying to get the Monkies not to eat the dead ones before we found them.
So, like I said, we had house guests, Victoria is 2 1/2 but just a little taller than Lilly, so they played hardy for all of Fri-Mon. It was hilarious because Vic speaks some english and they both speak fluent monkey so they understoood each other!

Saturday night the Easter Bunny came for the cuties and left some good bunny-bootie. In the morning we had the egg hunt, and I am thinking maybe next year we should request that Mr. Bunny doesn't use real hardboiled eggs. 1 and 2 1/2 year olds tend to drop them and CRACK! However, both Lilly and Vic are fans of eating them and they are waaaaay better for you than candy- so never mind, Mr. Bunny. Violet slept, like usual, through all the festivities. Not to neglect her cutie-ness, though.

Next we enjoyed what should be a traditional Easter lunch at Jack's BBQ, the best ribs that aren't my dad's. That reminds me, Dad, you should make some ribs soon! :) Lilly hasn't tasted your master smoked BBQ skill yet. But boy does she love the stuff, and the baked beans.

Lastly, Easter bowling. Vic was able to roll the ball... and sadly, scored higher than me. Monk wasn't near big enough, so she just got to don Vic's doggie backpack/leash and run wild. It was so painfully cutie that we rushed out the next day and got her her own monkey one. Yay!

That about covers it for Easter. Love all ya'll!!
