THE PALMER PAGES...: Easter 2011

Happy Easter!

We had a great day! (Well...almost!) The day started out with a trip to Children's Mercy ER with Majkin and a 102.4 fever. Being that she is only 10 days out of major surgery- it was important that we take her to the ER and make sure everything checked out O.K. with her heart. And....all is well! The Xray and Echo looked good and her temp went down with Tylenol. She has cold like symptoms- so we will have to watch her over the next few days. To waste time while we sat in the ER- Majkin danced to Hootie and the Blowfish, and watched The Muppets: Ma-nah-ma-nah, and listened to Elmo's song. She entertained all of the dr's and nurses. She's just fine! :)

While we were gone- Carson and Grandma Viki spent the morning playing with the toys the Easter Bunny left for the kids, and reading stories. We are so lucky to have Grandma Viki here with us while we get back into the swing of things.

When Majkin, Mike and I got home from the hospital, we had a little Easter Egg hunt in the back yard. Carson liked picking up the eggs, putting them in the bucket, and then dumping the bucket out. Majkin was a CHAMP at collecting eggs. She would spot them from across the yard, run to them, and put them in her basket. She picked up all the eggs that Carson dumped out- leaving him with no eggs at all! :)

The kids enjoyed the day- as did Mike, mom and I. We all missed our other family members- but know we will see everyone soon!

Here are a few pictures of our Egg Hunt!
