Spring Break

We took the kids to Florida for spring break this year, and they had a blast! They spent a lot of time playing on the beach, swimming in the heated pool, and just enjoying themselves. The weather was a little cool when we arrived, but got better as the days passed. Finally, on Friday, our last full day, the weather was absolutely perfect. That day we all went on a 2-hour dolphin cruise around Destin. The kids were excited to get to sit in the captain's seat and steer, and to see the dolphins which came right up to the boat. Trevor took his Fisher Price digital camera and was snapping photos all over the place. I really enjoyed watching their faces and doing something different that day. We were also pleasantly surprised that the beach was not too crowded yet. We really enjoyed spending time together and the kids enjoyed getting to see their Ya-Ya and Papaw for an entire week.

Daffodil Days

The past couple of weeks have been hard. So this weekend it was nice for us to be able to get out and soak up some sunshine while it lasted. The kids enjoyed being outside and we all enjoyed seeing the daffodils.

Snow Day

We were surprised today with a snow day! The kids loved playing in the snow and building a snow man. It was fun to watch them trying to eat snowflakes, throw snow balls at eachother, and make snow angels. Just wish we all had snow boots!

"I'm free years ol today!"

Today is Sarah's birthday! Here is a photo of her on the bike she got from Mama, Daddy, and big brother. She is soooo proud to finally have a bike like big brother. Even though she is having a birthday party, we wanted to celebrate in our own way at home on her day. Daddy came home at lunch so he could see her face when she got it. Then, the kids rode bikes and played outside for a while this afternoon. Afterwards, we made cupcakes with sprinkles--her favorite. Tonight on the phone she told Grandma, "I'm free years ol today!"

Happy Birthday Sarah!

Our little girl is turning 3 this week! It seems like only yesterday that she was born and we were holding this tiny little baby in our arms. She was wrapped head to toe in pink! In some ways the past three years have flown by, and other ways, time has stood still. She is a wonderful, beautiful, sweet little girlie girl, and is getting big enough to hold her own with big brother! Sarah loves all things pink and girlie, and really enjoys dressing up and putting on lipstick. But, she also loves to do everything brother does including driving the tractor and playing trains. She has such a vibrant personality with a great sense of humor. Happy Birthday Sarah Grace!
