How was your holiday weekend?
Did you do celebrate Easter or do anything fun with your family? We celebrate Holy Week and Easter, but unfortunately, we didn’t make it to church yesterday. We did have plans to attend Easter service. I even woke up early to prepare for it. I had the kids’ outfits ready and everything, but life with five kids kicked in.
Next thing we knew, it was time for service to start and we were running late. We decided it was best to just stay home so Travis made eggs and waffles for brunch. For dinner, he made his delicious homemade chicken fried rice with broccoli. I’ll have to share with you guys his chicken fried rice recipe because it is SO GOOD! He made it on his own without using a recipe he found. Travis loves to create his own recipes and he always does an amazing job.
TV Segment on ABC – WXYZ Detroit
Also, on Saturday, I did a TV segment on ABC WXYZ Detroit. Topcashback.com invited me to share a TV segment about DIY Easter baskets. I’m so thankful for the opportunity. If you’d like to find out more about Topcashback.com, I definitely encourage you to give them a try. They offer free signups for an account.

I had a great time at WXYZ Detroit. I was nervous before I went on-air, but once I started talking to Ameera David, I didn’t feel so nervous anymore. Ameera led a great interview and it felt like I was talking to my friend about making Easter baskets! It was my fourth time doing a segment on WXYZ Detroit. I always love visiting WXYZ because the news anchors and staff are always so friendly. It’s also cool getting a behind the scenes look at how the local news is produced.
You can watch the video of the TV segment below (after the photograph).
Easter Family Photos
I didn’t use my DSLR camera for our Easter photos. It was really cold outside and I just wanted to do something really quick and not have to deal with the editing on Lightroom. I used my LG Stylo 3 phablet for our photos and edited them with my VSCO app. Here are a few family photos from Easter Sunday. I’ve also included our outfit details.
