Welcome friends!!!

We are so glad you stopped by to share our blog. We love life and each other immensely. As much as we want to be with everyone at once it is just impossible, at least until they finalize that cloning stuff (jk). So this is a way for us to keep in touch with you and for you guys to share things with us. Do not be shy. We love to hear from friends new and old (especially if it has been a while). Let's chat, let's catch up, let's reconnect.

We wish you only the very best,
Kimani, Datnee, Nehemiah, Kimberlee, Daniel, and Naomi Smith

Happy Resurrection Sunday

What an amazing Easter Sunday morning. To be honest I have never done anything celebratory on this holiday. We just pretty much go to church and back. If the kids happen to have a nice outfit great if not that's great too.

However, this year my father purchased for the kids some nice dressy clothes and I decided to go with it.

Saturday night I had the kids plant 'candy seeds' in the hopes they would grow into lollipops in the morning. Lo and behold they did. Lol. Kimani placed the lollipops and in the morning they were so excited when they found them :) that was cute.

Sunday morning was so impactful. I made breakfast and shared with the kids the real reason of Easter and they actually listened and participated in the activity (resurrection rolls). At the end we all gave a loud shout to thank Jesus for dying for us.

We took some pictures of the kids dressed in their Sunday best. After that we went to have an early dinner.

Finally, we got home for the Easter egg hunt and basket reveal.

I had gotten a different puzzle for each kid and took the pieces and placed it inside different colored plastic eggs to distinguish it from the others. So Kimberlee's puzzle was hidden inside pink and purple eggs. Nehemiah's in blue and orange. Daniel had to find yellow and green eggs. When we came upstairs they opened the plastic eggs that contained their specific puzzle and assembled them together. As we were doing that Daniel said, I had a great day Mommy.y heart melted and it made my backache worth it.

I am one exhausted Mommy, but I feel like the kids had a well rounded day.

Happy Easter my children.
