April 2010

Even though I did an easter post, i thought i would go back to 4/1/10 and start an April. On the first, we went to the arboretum. It was a beautiful day and grammy took off and we all went. Just wanted to post a few pics.. the girls had a great time running in the grass... and smelling the flowers.





Easter 2010

Our neighborhood had the annual easter egg hunt on the 28th of March. The girls had a great time at the park, and found TONS of eggs. They got to play in the bounce house, pet the animals and eat snacks.... what could be better. (you can really see ava's hair curly good in these pics) Then on Saturday before Easter, we dyed eggs with our neighbors, and all the kids had a blast. Sunday before church the easter bunny came, and left some pretty cool stuff, Macy Shelly (our christmas elf) even sent a note to the girls reminding them to mind, with the easter bunny. Ava thought it was cool that they were friends :)
After an awesome church service (if its online yet, i will post a link to it, it was GREAT), we went to Grammy and Papoos house, ate lunch and hid more eggs. The girls had a really good time. And to end the day, we got to play with our friends outside.. Hope everyone had a great easter....

*poor ava is suffering something terrible from her allergies, so thats why she looks so swollen...

March 2010

This month we have been busy practicing Tball and we had our first game on the 27th. Ava got 2 hits, and was really excited. Anna Kate got to go to another friends birthday party which was a blast. It snowed again on the 20th, the sunday starting spring break, so we got to go out and play in that for a while. The only snow of 3 that we were actually here to see. We got @ 3 inches and it was gone by lunch... it was GREAT. Spring Break, ava didnt want to go to school she told me that "spring break your supposed to do fun things" so we did. We played and painted outside,i let the girls help cook, went to the park several times, went to the library for storytime, went to the movies, and lots of other fun things. She had a blast, now she keeps asking when is it gonna be spring break again. We also experimented with sponge rollers, I had rolled ava's before but it was too short to do anything. This time it curled up really cute, and she loves is. so i had to take a few pictures of her, and anna kate too, i can remember me lacy and loni looking like that every saturday night when we were little.... fun fun fun... Like i said earlier, she had her first GAME the 27th of this month, and now I have Anna Kate asking too, when she can do TBALL and who is her coach, and she also wants to be a ballerina... i can see that next year, we really are gonna be busy. Oh, and we have been working on potty training... and weve been doing really good in pull ups, but this month, we actually did it. Anna Kate is now a big girl... and she is so proud. *( this is more for my memory than everyone else sorry if TMI)











February 2010

This february, we got the chance to take the girls to San Diego, CA. We went the week of the 8-14. We had a blast. We went to the beach (several times), went to the San Diego Zoo, and to Sea World. We also got to go with Brannon to his trade show, and i think the girls liked that just as much as anything else. They got all kinds of goodies, and got to play on all sorts of equipment. I was a great trip, but while we were gone, we did get a record snowfall for dallas, 12 inches... but when we got back, there was still plenty of snow left at the golf course, so Brannon took the girls down there and they made a sled and had a blast. and the last week of the month, Ava had her first T Ball practice. She is on the longhorns and is one of 3 girls. right now she is loving it.... Anna Kate got invited to her first birthday party, also. She had such a good time at Charlottes party, now she keeps asking when her party is gonna be... its gonna be a long time till sept, for her i am afraid. FYI, she HAD to wear a dress to charlottes party, because she told me Charlotte always wears pretty dresses, so i wear one too...

Since i am so behind on the blog, and we took like 500 pictures in San Diego, i am just gonna post a few highlights of the month.
