Summertime is almost here!

  It has been nice and warm the last couple weeks so we have gotten a little taste of what summertime will be like.   

Ready to try out the sprinklers...

 Graham wasn't a huge fan of it...

 But Morgie was!  

 We went to the Fort Worth Zoo last week with Jennifer and Clayton and had a blast.  We hadn't been in a long time.  It was probably Graham's 1st trip to really enjoy it.  So fun!

 We also ran into see the Dwinells there.  They were there for a birthday party.  We tried to get all the kids together but this is the best I did!  Ben, Addyson, Graham, Clayton and Morgan

I have been taking the kids to swim at Lifetime's indoor pool.   Just trying to get them comfortable and ready for the swimming season that is quickly approaching. They have had a great time playing and Morgan has started to practice a little of her swimming.   

 Fun with the fountains...

 Blowing bubbles...

 Today we went with our friends, the Vicaris and Dwinells, to the Fort Worth Childrens Museum.  It was my first time there.  It is very cute and the kids loved all the little activities.  Here are a few pictures of them at the  doctor's station...

Graham and Ben...Our little ambulance drivers...

 Here is the whole gang playing in the ambulance...

It was a fun first trip. It will be a great place to visit this summer because most of the play areas are inside and the kids can stay cool.  

We have had a great last couple weeks and I am looking forward to a fun-filled summer with my little cuties!  

 

Easter 2012

Finally -- my Easter post!  I feel like I have been so busy the last month that I haven't had time to blog.  And the new format on Blogger has taken me some time to figure out.  But now I've got it somewhat figured out so I can get caught up.  

The Easter Bunny visited us on Good Friday before leaving for El Campo.  They got lots of good, fun surprises.  

In El Campo the weather was beautiful so we all enjoyed a lot of outside time together.  Colton brought his four wheeler and the kids had a blast on it.   Graham's driving made me a little nervous.  I was one paranoid mom.  As my brother-in-law calls it...OPMS (Over Protected Mom Sydrome).  He was dangerous behind the wheel...running into cars, fences, you name it!  

Playing with bubbles...

Sweet Sadie was enjoying the sunshine too!

Graham and his Uncle Toy!  

Pretty girl on Easter!  How precious is she!?! 

The kiddos opening their Easter surpises at Nonny's.

A few group shots before the Easter Egg Hunt...

Let the hunting begin!

The kids and Nonny! (minus Sadie) 

Miss Sadie!  Next year she will be in on the hunting action!

What a beautiful, blessed Easter weekend we had.  Hope you all did too!

Gone fishing...

Uncle Troy and Aunt Val gave the kids fishing poles for Christmas and we broke them out last week for the first time!

Here they are ready to go!

Bryan didn't put hooks on their lines for our 1st outting. Smart decision! They would have caught each other!

Getting pointers from Daddy...

Morgan did good and caught on pretty quick. She might just get a hook on her line next time out...

Graham needs a little more help. He had a good time but we were nervous about him dropping his rod in the water, hitting someone with it or falling in the water....

Catching on...

My favorite picture of my lil' fishermen!

Enjoying a new hobby...

We will have more fishing fun in the weeks to come. The weather is beautiful and the fish are biting!
