Getting ready for Easter

This was Libby's Spring Break from school but we didn't get to do anything. I felt bad about that because this is the first time that we haven't gone somewhere for her Spring Break but I have to save up all of my leave time for this fall. School was also out on last Friday so that morning before I went to work I took Libby to her best friend's house to spend the day with her. Maddy's mom took Libby, Maddy, and Maddy's brother shopping and out to lunch and then back at their house they played for the rest of the day. Libby spent the night and I picked up her up Saturday morning.

Saturday afternoon Libby and I went to the Lady Gator softball game against Georgia. It was a close game until the 7th inning (the last inning for softball) with Georgia leading 6-5. We made a pitching change that didn't quite work out for us...by the end of the inning Georgia had spanked us 13-9. :-( During that disaterous last inning of softball we suffered an even bigger loss in basketball. We played Butler in the Elite 8 round of March Madness and lost. It was heart breaking. Everyone in orange and blue left the softball stadium looking like they just had the air knocked out of them. Libby and I had box seat tickets to the baseball game that started right after the softball game but I just simply couldn't take any more so we headed home instead of across campus to the baseball stadium (the baseball team ended up winning their game, though).

Sunday morning Libby and I met up with Ryan's parents at church while Ryan stayed home sleeping because he was having a very difficult time battling his allergies last weekend. After church we went out to lunch with them and then went home.

On Monday Libby went to work with me for the day. On Tuesday she was at work with me and then at lunch time we went to Ryan's parents house where his mom made lunch for us and then Libby stayed and spent the afternoon with her while I returned to work. On Wednesday Libby was at work with me for one last day and then Wednesday night she went to spend a few days with her father for the end of her Spring Break.

I had a very uneventful Thursday and Friday and that brings us up to right now. :-)

I did finally get around to getting the Easter decorations up so I'll leave you with shots of the entry table and the buffet table:
Here is a close up off that darling little bunny basket on the entry table. That basket was sent to Libby when she was a baby by my dear friend Tanja who always sends the most adorable gifts! The basket comes out every year to up the "cute factor" of our Easter decorations. :-)
