Wyatt's Birthday

This little cutie turned three this year.  He asked for pizza and a Thomas the Train ice cream cake.  His favorite gift was the water table which ended up being a hit with all the kids!  I love this little guy so much!  His double toothed smile is contagious!

End of Year Recitals

We have been to a lot of shows lately.  Here is Louis at his preschool show.  He is our little performer and did a great job singing at the top of his lungs, dancing and earned a milkshake for a great job.  






This is Carter at his two orchestra concerts.  He loved playing violin this year and
may continue in private lessons. 







This is Miles' zoo show where he played a crocodile.  We decided it was the best part because he got to be in 3 extra songs! We loved his teacher who just happened to look adorable that day!

Easter

Our Easter this year was fun!  I've decided that for our Easter decorations, all I've got are tons of stuffed animals though. We limited our usual thousand egg hunts so that the actual day was more fun.  When the kids woke up, the easter bunny had left a colored string tied to their foot which led all over the house through every room and eventually ending at their basket.  It added over an hour to our fun.  That silly bunny! 















This, by far, was the most popular basket item that some of the kids got.  Laser guns that sound like Despicable Me 2 guns.  We usually don't allow playing with guns but lasers... they're okay. To quote Woody, "It's just a little light bulb that blinks!" 


For Easter dinner, we packed up and headed over to my brothers house and had a great egg hunt with cousins in their backyard.  There was a golden egg to find that gave access to the money grab bag.  All the kids wanted that golden egg!







The actual Easter day we had some sick kids who had to skip church so I never got my sunday picture until the next week.  These two showed off their new tie/dress for the camera on the actual Easter day.




The week later, with matching ties.  Finally!
  You can tell Miles has been playing with the laser.  We're working at not doing a shooting pose for every picture. Happy Easter!
