Easter Days

Easter with Grandma and Grandpa on Friday, March 21.

Easter costumes!


The Hoffman Sigmeth clan gathered at the Hoffmans on Good Friday for some walleye dinner creations by Chuck and Mom & Dad brought a DQ ice cream cake with purple frosting (my favorite of course!). We celebrated Easter and my birthday on Friday as Dad (Gary) left for Florida on Saturday morning with a couple other drug pushers! Watch the CSI Miami episodes and you may see them!!! So Dad and his two pharmacist buddies went to see the Twins. They got to watch 2 games from behind home plate--sweet deal for a retired guy! Recently he called from a butterfly museum/sanctuary and the kids got to hear the birds squawking in the background as they talked on the phone to Grandpa!

On the actual Easter Day we did get over to Grandma's to find some Easter Eggs and candy the Big Bunny had left, but before we went over we celebrated at home...in our Halloween costumes! Chuck was downstairs and Maria insisted putting on Elmo and then Mitchell was ready to be Thomas the Tank Engine--toot toot! We had a great time dressing up and getting candy!

I've been on spring break this week-the first time CF has had a spring break! It has been wonderful! Chuck took a couple days off and we ran to the cities to take care of a few things and got to visit some friends. We also purchased a new MacBook Pro...I've been trying to figure out how to use it and Brent even stopped by to show me a few tricks. We've had Chris on call to answer a few of our questions-we may have to pay him some tech fees!

Mitchell is still doing well and still working on the potty training thing. Maria tells us when she has to go, so they'll probably both be out of diapers at the same time! That will be a nice savings each week! When they get into mischief and Chuck starts the count down he says, "ONE!" and Maria says, "two?" She is a little stinker and totally Daddy's Girl. She has this thing with ears as you can see in the photos! We played in our last snow fall--at least I hope it's the last one. We even attempted to make a little snowman, but he has since melted too! Maria has been trying on her summer attire--her swimsuit from Uncle Brent & Wendy may be a little small, but it sure looks cute!
