Spring break Trip To The Aquarium

Last week was Spring Break and one of our big days was at the Ga. Aquarium. We went with some friends and had a blast. Morgan really enjoyed it this year because she wasn't confined to a stroller and at a fun age to where she really enjoyed it.

Quick pic,busy day and quite bright in this spot

She wanted to give the Beluga whale a hug and was disappointed when I told her she just had to look at him and blow him a kiss
pirana's, so cool of course!

Alligators looking back at the kids, didn't see them until they stood up, it was a nice surprise! HA
Sweet! Love the reflection pics, priceless!
She loved the Turtle! I think he liked Morgan too, they both enjoyed each others company
Morgan going in the belly of a whale, not sure at first......
but loved it and went 10 more times!

Best I could do on the pic, too much going on...
Our new friends, Hannah, Emma,Grace. I work with their mom Christy with the 3 year olds and have developed a great friendship with her and our kids enjoy each other as well. I am excited about working again with her next year full time with 3 yr olds again!

Enjoying the Outdoors

last week was our spring break and we started it off by enjoying the beautiful weather. The kids are in to catching "cali-pitters",and just playing out side. We took it easy for a few days,then went to the aquarium one day and park one day(will post later). Here is Andrew's catch, I think he had 12 at one time.
Morgan, her beach chair, her shades and popcorn, what else could she ask for?
New Tinkerbell Baton.
New Dora kite, she loves! She calls it her "Dora Flag",
Just swinging. Mark put our hammock and her swing under our deck and hopefully we will be getting our playground and trampoline soon. Mee Mee and Paw Paw just put a swing set,sand box and starting to put there pool up for the summer, so with all of those new toys,and our new park 7 minutes a away, we are ready for summer! I can't believe I just said that!

Doughnuts with Dad and Preschool Spring Fling

We had a busy week at our school last week. Andrew and Morgan had "Doughnut's with Dad" day and our annual fund raiser the "Spring Fling"
Morgan's Gift to Daddy, very Sweet. Will frame it and go in Mark's office with Andrew's.
Andrew and Daddy's morning at his preschool
Mark and Andrew stopped by the Spring Fling before heading to Andrew's ball game, of course their first stop was the Race car simulator!
Andrew second tent over doing the bean bag toss,I maned the basket ball hoops.
Of course Morgan had to jump, in the "jumpy thing" She loves to jump!!
Not to much into Basket ball though, maybe because of the fresh mani/pedi and gold she was sporting that morning after being at Mee mee's house for a sleep over?
Wasn't to sure about getting a picture with the policeman and fire fighter. I think my mom did it for me and her. LOL-It was a very fun and successful fund raiser, long day but worth it. I can't believe this year is almost over!

Andrew's 1st Drag Race

Every year Mark's Electrical supply Co. treats us to the Drag races every year, and for the past 2 years I have wanted to take Andrew. Well,finally Andrew made it to his 1st drag races, and absolutely enjoyed every minute of it.
As long as he had his ear plugs, he was good to go!

Mark and Andrew were able to get up close to John Force, my favorite NHRA driver and was lucky enough to get his autograph.



Andrew was all about getting the NHRA cards with the cars on it, I think he got a whole bag full. to go with all of our other cards.There were on a roll, they were able to get John Force's daughter Ashley Force-Hood autograph as well.

Andrew informed us when he is done with T-ball he is going to drive that car! The Jr. Top Fuel. I just think it is hilarious when he calls the "Funny Cars" the "Silly Cars", he had a ball, and I am so glad he was able to go with us and we had a great day together! Morgan is next and if it was up to her she would of gone too, maybe in a couple more years!

Easter 2009

Finally a family picture with all of us in it! Those are hard to come by these days. This picture was in front of the "Flower Cross" our church had on Easter Sunday. We were able to bring fresh cut flowers and place them on the cross to celebrate what Easter is all about. It turned out to be a beautiful piece of work and reminder of our Lord and Savior,his sacrifice and love for us that is risen and very much alive!

Andrew and Morgan understand fully what Easter is all about, but they also enjoy visits from the Easter bunny with "Springtime" treats.
What a little lady! The hat was her idea and so glad she chose it, she was precious! I Was only able to get pictures of just her early Easter morning, which she was all about showing off for the camera anyway!

She loves her brother! They are a perfect pair, and were so beautiful and" handsome!"
One of my favorites. Also I love pictures at Mark's moms house and yard. We still need some landscaping but also there is never anyone to take our pic at our house but ME! oh well, I love this pic!

Well that is the best we could do, poor Mark was sick with a 103 fever for 4 days,and Morgan needed a nap! Andrew just wanted to hunt eggs and play with his cousins and friends, I just wanted a good family picture!
With 8 kids (Ashton) not in pic,this is the best we could do! They are a trip! We love getting together with our family and friends at any occasion! I think Morgan started it! HA!
Egg hunt time, she is so fast!
Andrew on the other hand takes his time, and likes to sample as he goes!



We had to re dress for my parents, then eat and egg hunt yet again! No complaints!




Well I can't believe Easter was here and gone, time flies and they grow up so fast! We enjoyed our day and each other!
