Spring Break Fun

We had a wonderful low key kind of spring break. We spent the week at home just playing and having fun.


Katie Lee wanted to go to the new library in town.  She was excited.   

Spent some time with this little cutie

and theses little monkeys

and a kangaroo

 

at the Harmony Park Safari. 

Daniel challenged his daddy to a John Deere race. 

Daniel worked on his hand writing. 

We did a little shopping. 

And finally enjoyed a morning at the market in down town Elkmont. 

Now for the count down to summer. 

Birthdays and cuteness

We wrapped March up with two big birthday parties. We celebrated Mother's birthday with a delicious supper at Kathryn's house.  We are so lucky to have such a wonderful mother and grammie. 

We also celebrated Uncle Virg's 92nd birthday with his favorite--ribs at Ruby Tuesday. 

Spring is beginning but the end of March was still a little chilly.  This little cutie was sporting his cute little bowtie and big boy clothes.  Isn't he a doll. 

Love these two sweeties. 

Katie Lee looks adorable in her new spring outfit too. Such a sweetie inside and out.   

Easter Egg Hunt

I hosted an Easter lunch and egg hunt for my aunts and cousins and their little ones. It is one of my favorite gatherings.  This year I used blue and white as my table theme thanks to finding the prettiest blue egg napkins.   

The kids table was lots of fun and had bunnies for them to color. 

Soon it was time for the egg hunt.  It may have been the coolest hunt we have ever had but they did not seem to mind. 

My cousins and all of our littles.

Easter 2015

The littles got up and had to hunt for their Easter baskets. They were very excited about their treats and especially about their new Bibles.   

 After church we had dinner at Mother and Daddy's.  Best friends. 

We colored eggs. 

Favorite grandparents. 

Our little family. 

The egg hunt was so fun to watch.

My sweet family. 

World Thinking Day with Girl Scouts

Katie Lee's girl scout troop recently participated in World Thinking Day. Each group presents a different country. Their group had Ireland.

Listening to the other groups talk about their country. 

 Katie Lee's troop telling about Ireland.  They each had a part to read. 

 

Seeing Green

This year I decided to have a little St. Patrick's day party.

We had golden nuggets, Irish potatoes, rainbow pasta, and Leprechaun milk. 

The littles loved it. 

After lunch, we had a pot of gold scavenger hunt. 

Katie Lee read the clues and the boys had to think of where to go next. 

All over the house I had clues hid.  They had so much fun. 

They found the treasure under the bed

which was not made up so it caused a jumping on the bed party. 

Then on to the photo booth. 

Even sweet Caroline got in on the fun. 

Dessert--- rainbow pizza

Rainbow painting

What a fun afternoon with my favorites.
