The Taylor Family: Easter Weekend and CRAZY storms

We got to spend Easter at my Mom's this year. She is not off every year since she works at the Tupelo hospital. This year she was so Jason, Chase, and I headed to her house Friday night after the big Arlington/Bartlett Baseball game. We won 10-5 in 9 inning so it was HUGE. We got there about midnight, but it was worth it to have all day Sat and all day Sunday. We did have great weather all weekend. Chase played in his new little pool my mom got him for her yard and rode my little cousin's old tricycle, which we brought home. We tried dying eggs and hiding them. Chase was only interested in the candy inside the plastic ones and not finding them. He only wanted to play in the colored water the real ones were in. Hopefully next year, we will be able to try it again and him get the concept of it. We enjoyed a great Ham that was smoked by the baseball team. Jason has not been home with me in a few months due to baseball so this was especially great. The downside is that I ended up with some sort of allergy/sinus/cold thing that has really gotten me down. I am on day 5 of it and am ready for it to go! The doctor gave me 2 nose sprays and Allegra so we will see if it helps.

Starting Monday (the 25th) we are in the middle of 3 days of horrible storms. Very unnerving. Always have to be on the look out for Tornado's and not getting much sleep. I am glad that today is the last day of it. We have had a crazy April...a Tornado watch every week and seems it is always on Mondays. Jason had 6 games this week, but has not played any of them. Two of them were district games that will have to be made up. Senior night is supposed to be today, but I am sure that will be postponed as well.

Easter service at my home church was great. We had a wonderful sermon. I tried to explain to Chase why we celebrate Easter, but he is still too little to understand. I hope to do the Resurrection Eggs/cookies with him next year. He did get a lot of candy and a few small toys.

Update on potty training...doing great at Mama Jane's everyday, but not so good at home...at least one accident a day, but I guess that is better than a bunch of them. We also have not gotten number 2 to go in the potty yet,which makes those accidents especially GROSS!

Other than baseball, we don't have a lot going on. EPMS is moving into a brand new school so my work life is about to get really busy and I am going to TRY not to get stressed about it. Jason is still planning his trip to Lusaka, Zambia in Africa in July. I am praying about this and trying to get a peace about him going. I am really nervous about it. It is in God's hands and I have to trust that he will be safe and will be able to spread the Word. I have a huge fear of airplanes so I am having a hard time with all the flying.

Here are a few pictures of our weekend at my mom's
