Hunt #1

A friend of mine from high school lives down the road on a beautiful little farm. She has invited us the last couple of years to their big annual easter egg hunt on the property. They cook a pig and have lots of food and fun for the kids. Addie was a little young last year to really understand how to hunt, but this year she caught on quickly and filled her little basket full of goodies. My friend called me the day before to tell me that she blames me for her "big thighs" since she ate every piece of candy with a peanut in it as she stuffed the eggs in preparation for the hunt. She didn't want Addie to have to worry about the candy inside. That was very sweet of her!





It's hard to believe that Hayes will be a year and a half this time next year and will probably give Addie a little competition when it comes to egg hunting! We are looking forward to the hunt again in a year. I have plenty of photos to share from our Easter celebrations this year. Since Tim had to work on Easter Sunday, we celebrated a day early with his family and then the kids and I did it all over again at my mom's the next day. Holidays are much more fun with little ones!

I can make you feel better...

Addie knew Hayes was not feeling too good, so she asked me if she could lay beside him in his crib and give him some lovin'.





Hayes loved every second of it, and it just about melted my heart!

Toughin' it out...I guess :(

This tough, adorable little guy is such a trooper. Even when his ankles are red and creased with dry skin, and his little neck and head are bright red and burning with patches of evil eczema, he is still willing to get dressed up like a little man and pose for some easter pictures.



His skin seemed to take a turn for the worse on our road trip this past week. The pollen count was sky high the day we left and that may have played a large part in it, but the poor little guy had such a tough time. It was nice to see my family, but a really hard trip overall. I have so many fun pictures to share with you all, but first have to get the little guy comfortable and get his allergist to get us on a new regimen, since this one seems to be failing. He's toughin' it out though, as usual...he is such a joy and blessing in our lives.

Where does she get it?


-that adorable, slightly annoying, all-tooth grin she loves to show off when we pull out the camera! I think I might have an idea where it comes from.

So...what you lookin' at?


This is how I roll. Eatin' icecream on the driveway in my rocking chair. You know you want some too!
