What A Glorious Day!!






What a wonderful, joyous day we had. We started out the day with a surprise from the easter bunny. He left Miles quite a nice little basket of goodies including a Curious George DVD, bubbles, monkey glasses, a stuffed basketball playing bunny and assorted candies and a chocolate rabbit. He was so surprised and excited when he came downstairs. He had such a big smile on his face. It was precious.

After that we all got ready for church. It was a wonderful service and the choir was amazing. I always love Easter Sunday and having worship with our church family. This day is always a time of reflection for me. It makes me think about Jesus paying the ultimate sacrifice for us. I also have a whole new perspective this year as a mother. I can't imagine Mary seeing her son go through that agonizing day and feeling so helpless. I love Miles so much and I am so thankful for him.

We went home to my parent's house for lunch and Mike's parents also joined us. My sister and nephew were there also. Miles got to be with all his grandparents for his first Easter here. The weather turned out to be sunny which was a nice suprise since the forecast was calling for rain all day. We ate outside on the deck even though it was a little chilly . The temp was in the low 60s but still beautiful outside. We had a big egg hunt for the boys and Miles had the time of his life. He ran all over the yard and once in awhile would pick up too much speed and lose some of his eggs. He looked very handsome today if I do say so myself all dressed up in his Sunday best. He was exhausted when we got home this evening. It was the perfect Easter Sunday. I did miss all my other family however.

Hope all of you had a blessed day. We hope Easter was joyful for all the family in Korea. They had a big wedding this weekend and the bride looked beautiful in her gorgeous gown. The children are getting so big and look much older. Hope the baby is doing well also. Love to everyone-Have a good week!!

How Much Is That Doggie In The Window?




Miles really loves his stuffed animals- especially his dogs. He also loves his canine brother Winston. He talks to his stuffed animals and kisses them frequently. He likes to surround himself with them when he sleeps. It has officially been confirmed that "Dog Is Man's Best Friend" and in the Trussell household we couldn't agree more!! Dogs Rock!!

Oh The Weather Outside Is Frightful!!




How can we go from beautiful 70 degree weather last week to snow and freezing temps this week??? Please spring weather come back!!! We are all getting cabin fever and my daffodils and tulips are begging for mercy!!HAHA

Spring Has Sprung



Well it has been quite some time since i have blogged. Basketball is finally over for the time being at our house. It is always a hard transition when it is over and although we love it and enjoy watching it it is also nice to have some down time!!! Mike would definately disagree with that but I am simply speaking for myself and Miles and Winston. We are so proud of the Lady Wolverines winning the district championship this year!!!

We have been walking in the evenings and taking Miles and Winston in the stroller. Miles is saying more words each week and loves watching the birds and squirrels. He takes his cell phone each evening when we go on our outing. He has really started playing with his stuffed animals and likes to feed them and give them drinks.

My dad had shoulder replacement this last week and is getting along quite well. We enjoyed Grandma staying with us while he was in the hospital. Miles loved waking up and eating breakfast with grandma!!!

I really feel we are in a routine now and am soooo ready for warmer weather. My mind has really been on all the people of Japan and the tragedy they have endured. I would get on a plane tomorrow if it were possible and go help out where I could. Please pray for them and count our blessings each day!!! Have a great week.

Blog Award



Recently I was given a blog award from Grace at smallcoppercoins.blogspot.com. Grace is a wonderful writer and I enjoy reading about her life. She is also expecting her second son in May!!! Thank you Grace.

These are the rules of this particular award:
1. Thank & link back to the person who gave me me the award. (see above)
2. Share 7 things about myself.
3. Award (up to) 15 recently discovered great bloggers.
4. Make sure I contact these bloggers to let them know about the award.

So here are 7 things about me, the award-winning rambler!

1) My Best Friend and I have been friends since before kindergarten. We were both born in October and our dad's share and the same first name-Earl (weird huh??). We still talk at least every other day on the phone. We both have late in life children who will be in the same grade except she has a daughter and I have a son. We have always lived in the same town as each other until now and we now are about one hour and 15 minutes away from each other!!

2) I am not squemish and I love helping with office surgeries. I love helping suture, excise, drain and pack anything that needs tending. A little gross but I am a nurse you know so I guess I picked the right profession!!

3) I am SCARED TO DEATH of mice!!

4) I am a good speller and won several spelling bees in grade school. I made it to the county spelling bee one year.

5) I was born on Halloween and love it. My parents had wonderful parties for me when I was little with hayrides, weenie roasts and costumes. I still love Halloween and would even if it wasn't my birthday.

6) I love garage sales and flea markets. There is no better way to start a weekend than a nice sunny morning drinking coffee and going to sales with my girlfriends!!

7) My dream car would be a red "67" mustang even though I am horrible at driving a stick shift. Red is my most favorite color.

I cannot think of any bloggers right now although I know there are probably several who deserve this award as well. I will work on that but right now I am VERY tired and need sleep HAHA so to bed I go!!! Thanks again Grace!!!
