Easter

We had a wonderful Easter a few weeks back. We had plans to go down to Dallas, but poor Mary got sick and was in the hospital. She ended up having surgery and is recovering well now. Luckily, we still had some wonderful family right here in Wichita Falls to celebrate with.

We enjoyed decorating some eggs Saturday night. I had the table covered in plastic, and a paint tarp on the floor. Carpet isn't really condusive to coloring eggs, especially with a 2 year old.

Here are a few of our fabulous looking eggs. We had some face stickers and hair that we went a little wild with.

That darn Easter bunny hid our baskets. Hayden was very excited to find his hidden in the toy room closet. He didn't waste any time digging in.

Kari found her basket in the dryer. What a crazy spot, but she was super good at hunting it down.

Sunday after Conference we went to Stanton and Amy's for a wonderful dinner followed by an Easter egg hunt. The kids did very well! As you can see, it was a bright sunny day (Kari, Kalei, Elise, and Hayden).
We all ended up finding our baskets. Mine was hanging on the shower rod, and Buck's was hidden behind a bookcase in the corner. He was the last to find his, the Easter bunny must have thought he would try to peek.

A Day of Green

I know I'm a little late to be doing a St. Patrick's Day post, but I'm doing it anyway. I also added some funny pictures of my cuties!

This is Hayden's "Harold" face. He loves a show called, "Harold and the Purple Crayon" and this looks just like a face he does in one of the episodes, especially with his shaved head.

Kari being goofy playing with some food.

They made use of the laundry baskets after I put laundry away. Kids make anything into toys, if only I could still be as imaginative!

I'm trying to teach Kari how to write her letters and numbers. Hayden likes to join in when we play school.

Here is us all in green for St. Patrick's Day! Hayden wasn't much in the mood for smiling.

Kari just could not figure out how the Leprachauns got into our house and turned all our food green. I know these are quite random items to eat together, but it was fun!

Oop's A Daisy

After we went to the Rattlesnake Roundup, we continued down south to Granite Shoals to visit Kristen, Mikey, and Tessa. While there, we got to check out Kristen's flower shop called, Oop's A Daisy.

Here is Kristen taking care of business! If anyone is ever in need of flowers and is near Burnet, TX Come here!

This is a shot of about half the shop where customers can go.

The kids enjoyed themselves quite a bit. Kari even got a green teddy bear she calls Teddy and Hayden got a rubber duck.

We got to have lunch with Kristen and hang out in her shop for a bit. She was very nice and patient with my inquisitve kiddos. Thanks a bunch!
