Camp out Adventure








Daddy got home early so we geared up for the camp out(backyard). This included pitching the tent and building a fire for roasting hot dogs and marshmallows. Can you say s'mores?!? TASTY!


We also found some critters to include a moth.


DID SOMEONE SAY RAIN?? Guess the weather forecast was a bit off!

Weed wars













With about 2 acres, we are constantly pulling weeds. Well, the kids have really made a sport of it- hence, weed wars. It seems to pass the time!

Spring Cleaning



We have had some great weather. It is nice to finally play outside.

Anastasia and Mommy were cleaning up inside while Joe was practicing for Taekwondo. Dad was fixing up the car.

Mawmaws' Ride



Tim, Marg and Kaleigh all came to pick up Mawmaw. We all had a great visit and Kaleigh wore out both Joe and Ana. Unfortunatley, on the way back to Pocahontas, AR, the family was met by the flooding.

Easter Visit





Mawmaw braved the Arkansas flooding to visit us for a few days. We had a great time showing off our many talents. We showed her how we swam, did Taekwando, and about anything else we could think of.


We dyed Easter eggs!!

Another Snow Day!!




In the almost three years that we have lived in Alabama, we have had two, that is right sports fans-- TWO snow days.
Today, we had a massive 2.2 inches of cover. Our kids were quite excited. In fact at 6.15 AM, Anastasia got out of bed and tried to get me up so that she could go out there and play with the horses. I held my ground til 7.15 and both she and Joe ganged up on me.
We had fun walking around, writing in the snow, and Ana' s finale-- ice diving.
This will certainly never become an Olympic Sport.

Putting trimmings on the Tree

The Easter tree that is!!
The kids helped
put the Easter
decorations on
our pussy willow
branches.
Of course, with all
that hard work,
a snack was required!
