Good Morning!

Carter & Ally

Spring in Here!

Happy Easter!

We have had a great day! The Easter Bunny came to our house last night, so that caused quite a bit of excitement this morning while we were trying to get everyone fed, dressed and out the door in time for the early service at church. Carter was excited that the Easter Bunny brought him a baseball glove, bubbles with lots of different wands and new books! Ally got a few new toys and books, too! After church we came home and got ready for lunch. It was my first time to be in charge of a holiday meal. We had ham (which wasn't all the way cooked by the time we wanted to eat so we had to microwave it the rest of the way!), deviled eggs, asparagus, salad and two homemade pies! It was so nice to be able to spend time with my mom and brother, although we were really missing my dad today (he stayed in Rome since he is coming home next month).

I thought it would be a great idea to take the kids to get their pictures taken in the bluebonnets in their Easter clothes after their naps this afternoon. As you can tell, it didn't go as planned...thanks to a certain little boy who has decided that he DOES NOT want his picture taken! After the bluebonnets we went to Research Park on campus to try and get some more pictures! I've posted the best ones from the day!

Rodeo Houston

We loaded up the kids yesterday for their first trip to the Houston Livestock Show! We ended up having a great time, and both the kids were REALLY well behaved the entire day! We got to see lots of animals, eat yummy food (including fried Oreos!), and play outside at the carnival for a bit. We are already talking about our trip back next year! I tried to put the pictures in order but it was taking too long!
