Kenzie Loses a Tooth!

She has been working this for a couple of weeks anxiously awaiting for it to fall out. She could not have been more excited. She was diligent in putting in a baggie for the Tooth Fairy so she could more easily find it. The Fairy left $2 and she decided to save it, for what, I don't know. Madalyn couldn't spend her quick enough...lol.

Itty bitty....

So proud!

This is just part of how Mackenzie has matured over the last six months or so. Can't believe she will start Kindergarten this fall. She is still (and will always be) my baby.....

Fashion and Declarations....

So Mason couldn't find his crocs so he insisted on wearing his next favorite, his rain boots. Then we ventured outside to play and this was his get up including a helmet that is way too small. He didn't care.

The girls had to get in on the photo shoot.

In other random news, Madalyn wrote this a few days on her chore board, "Hello Welcome to the Prostak Family! I wanted to put this sign up because we love God and Jesus". This is hanging on our fridge just as you enter our house from the garage. That's my sweet girl and her heart for Jesus.....

Easter....

We had a very relaxing Easter day as a family, low key and quiet. Not much to say really. We went to church and had an egg hunt afterwards. The kids came home to see that the Easter bunny had been through to leave them their baskets. The girls loved their zhu zhu pets and Mason got a Hot Wheel door ramp thingy. We colored eggs later that day and finished with a Polish dinner. Matt's entire family is Polish and he loved Easter and all the traditional food. So we had fresh keilbasa and peirogies from this Polish deli, braised red cabbage, and sweet bread. Very tasty! Here are some highlights.....

Hope you all had a sweet time with your families as we remembered and celebrated that Christ is Risen!

Georgia Part 2....

So I haven't uploaded Easter pics yet so we'll revisit our vacation......

So it was our first morning in the cabin. Still cold with snow on the ground. I was getting my bearings around the kitchen and found a Mickey waffle maker. I think I was more excited than the kids were. So I surprised them each with a slice of home before they headed out to collect "things" in their bags with Matt. What "things" I wasn't sure but they each asked for a bag.

Ready to go exploring. Kenzie insisted on not pulling the hat down over her ears, crazy girl.


Then we decided to do some fishing. When I say our cabin was "right" on the water, I mean we went outside and threw our line over our deck. Matt was very excited to fish although we had no success. We didn't know what we were doing but the guy at the Honda dealership, Ed, gave me a quick tutorial....and I quote..."You go up there to the Super Walmart and get yourself some number 8 hooks and some number 5 split shots. You put those splits about 12 inches up from your hook. Then you git yourself some of the Magic Bait. It comes in all colors but neon yellow is my favorite". Seriously? And this is the guy we trusted with our vehicle?? In any case.....

I just love this pic!

Little Brown Buddy, his occasional nickname, has trouble throwing his line over but he found some buckets and had just as much fun.

She is more like me, likes it for about 5 minutes or less, and moves onto something else. Now Kenzie would be a much better fishing partner.

Later we went hiking.....
