Here comes Peter Cottontail...

(song has been in my head all day. really).

I have a question...ever notice how the voice on my company's commercials as well as Mazda's sounds like Dr. McDreamy? Go to youtube or something. I'm serious. Anyway...watching Extreme Makeover Home Edition and avoiding the inevitable bawling it induces by blogging. 

Hope you had a fantabulous weekend! How was mine? In adjectives: chill. productive. fun. blessed. :) Saturday, I tried my hand in home improvement by way of sanding the siderails of my bed that I plan to stain black! (Thanks again, Maureen!!!) (Siderails were a good start in case I royally jacked them up). 
I make sanding look easy. (b/c it kinda is. whatever.)
While I sanded rails, Eric took on the job of cleaning out and re-framing his shed. I'm glad he's letting me borrow some tools and some space for my masterpiece de bed or whatever. :)

While I'm on this, if you have a good way to stain oak black, I would LOVE tips. Google has a zillion opinions and I have no idea if I trust any of them. 

Saturday night was game night at Sarah and Andrew's. Landen hung out on the boppy (is that what it's called?) and slept 3/4 of the time. Such a chill little guy and freaking adorable! We used his books as hard surfaces to write on for our own (slightly inappropriate) version of Loaded Questions (see Eric proudly displaying his book). We got a kick out of Landen flanked by our beverages...please see photo.


I hear there's an audience wanting a pic of Landen's adorable little face-so here ya go! :) 
Annnnnnnd.. the cute fam and hosts. :)
HAPPY EASTER! Spent lunch with Eric's fam. Then, I  grabbed food with mom for an early dinner. :) Per usual, mom's filter was in "semi off" mode, but still good times. Love that woman. :) My personal favorite was my explanation of facebook (mom doesnt get it) where she said "Lemme get this straight. Anyone can make a profile. Anywhere. And add friends. Just because?" I said "Yup." She thought about it a moment and finished with "But, why?" hahaha... 

At lunch, the Easter Bunny hid baskets at Eric's house and we all looked for them...which may have been the cutest thing in the world. And now I shall go stuff myself with Easter candy and play with my dog.

I thought it WAS McDreamy! Is it not?! I have wondered, though, why he would do commmercials for an insurance company...

Oh yeah, it's def. Dempsey's voice. Hey, we actors have to pick up extra money wherever we can (although I happen to know exactly how much he HAS to be making on Grey's per SAG stipulations, and he doesn't exactly need to be doing any other work unless he's just really terrible with his money)! That bebe is too cute and I too think the photo of him surrounded by the beverages is pretty fab. ;) Glad you had such a lovely day and lucky ducky you getting an Easter basket!
