We are Daniel and Sara. We met October of 2006 and were married August of 2007 in the Salt Lake Temple. Since then we're kind of in the fast lane. We both got the baby bug pretty early on in our marriage and we welcomed our beautiful baby boy Dmitri in August 2008! We couldn't be happier! Daniel is a Captain in the Army and has his Bachelors in Nursing. We're living in HI and so far are enjoying our time here! I'm a stay at home mommy and am looking forward to finishing school. Blah :} Dan enjoys; hunting, basketball, shooting ranges, movies, *sigh - video games and Halloween. Sara enjoys; crocheting, baking, aquariums, sewing, shopping, swimming and trying to get organized. Dmitri enjoys; trying new food, crawling, bath time, stroller rides, electronics and getting into things he shouldn't. It takes all kinds to make up a family - and we cherish and love our little family! :)

Happy Easter - some more!

I LOVE Easter!
I love the colors, the significance,
the decorations - everything!

I'm kind of bummed I have absolutely
no Easter decor :[ I seriously have looked,
and found NOTHING!
So unfortunately my house is Easter less - but
in decor only! We have the Easter spirit going on.
:)

So today was errand day!
Well - after the nap of course.
Daniel worked last night and I pulled another
late nighter - cause I'm dumb.
I went to bed at 2:30am, woke up at 7 - then
Dmitri went down for his nap at 10 - and so did I!
I slept till 1pm. Thank you Dmitri!
It still took so much effort to get up at 1 though :[
So yes. Daniel asked me to wake him up around 1,
so I did. Then I ran out to do some errands while he
watched Dmitri. I went to Fabric Mart [Oh lala] and
then to Goodwill where I scored some AWESOME
pillowcases that I plan to make into dresses. I'll post
about that later though. I also found a cute BRAND NEW
pair of sandals for Dmitri for $2.99! Sweet sweet.
Oh - and some nice large frames for $2.99!
Oh - so right when I walked in, I saw this brand new in
box baby mobile. Of course. It was $12.99. I thought
about getting it, but decided I'll go with the one I
made him. Lame! Of course that would happen to me!
Ohwell.

So I ordered some fabric online the other day,
and I can't wait to get it!
I'm going to make it [along with the fabric I got
today at Fab mart] into a quilt for our bed.
Super excited.

So I'm attempting an Easter dinner tomorrow.
I have high hopes for it - so I hope all goes well.
I of course waited till the last minute.
I went to Foodland grocery store tonight
and they only had a few hams left. They were
20 pounders!! Since that would take us a year
or more to eat - I decided to bite the bullet and drive
the extra 15 mins to Safeway.
I found the cutest ham! Seriously it's adorable.
It's like 4lbs and I predict it'll be nice and tasty!
Along with our little porker I'm making mashed
potatoes, yams, deviled eggs, asparagus and rolls.
Along with a yum yum chocolate cheesecake dessert.
Fantastic!
Yay Easter!

Here are Dmitri's Easter pics.
Enjoy.
And Happy Easter!


Us.
Sara, Daniel & Dmitri
So the Easter bunny came last night, and
left some nice little baskets!
I had to be creative with Dmitri's because
he obviously can't have candy yet. So I found some
deals on toys and books. He also got a bag a baby goldfish.
My fab deal for Dmitri's Easter outfit - I of
course bought his shirt and tie onsale, but
I went in there yesterday and they
had these adorable white loafers!
They were originally $14.50 [I think]
but they were marked $7.99 but then had
an additional markdown, so they were $4.19!
I love it!
Daniel got some candy and an Easter outfit.
[dress shirt, tie and slacks. Even dad's need Easter outfits!:]
We have a Banana Republic Outlet down the
street, so that's were I got his. Everything is
the store is always 40% off - but I got an
exceptionally awesome deal on his slacks!
They were originally $89, but had been marked
down a few times. The last mark down was $27.99,
and they also qualified for the 40% off.
So they were $16!! I was super stoked about
his pants too :D
And my skirt - this may sound weird, but
I found it on a trip to Goodwill for frames. It's
a grass green color and accented with white flowers.
It had the original tags still on, and I got it for $6.99!
Booyah!
:D
So the ham is cooking - and it smells delish so far!
Still keeping my fingers crossed :)
Happy Easter!

Oh - and these guys deserve an honorable
mention. My mom took a class to learn
how to make some stuffed animals.
She made these adorable bunnies for Dmitri!
I love them. They always make me smile seeing them.
And Dmitri loves them too!
