Bunnies and Basketballs!

Chris and I took the kids to the Easter Eggstravaganza at Exploration Station on Saturday. Ethan's main concern was whether or not Jacie would be there. He even made a bracelet for her! He was so shy around her, so I had to give it to her. Emerson was very scared of the Easter Bunny, as you can tell. Luckily, Ethan is not afraid of the Easter Bunny or Santa anymore. We played outside the rest of the day until Chris decided that Ethan needed a basketball goal. Off to the store we go in search of a big boy hoop! With all of the help that Chris had putting it together, it only took all afternoon yesterday. Poor guy!

Rain, Rain, Go Away

Spring is officially here! I am ready for some sunshine! I often let the kids play in the puddles on a warm day in their rain boots. Ethan is a pro, but this is Emerson's first year participating. Her boots kept getting stuck in the big puddles behind our house. I kept hearing, "I stuck, Mommy!" She also did not like getting wet. Such a girly girl. Ethan, however, was wet pretty much from head to toe and could care less! ALL boy! We have some Easter festivities coming up this weekend, so I'll post those pictures next week. There are also a couple of short videos in the album.

This and That

Not too much going on lately. I have taken a few pictures of some outside play, but that's really about it. Ethan had to decorate a potato for Awana tonight, so that should explain the dressed up potato picture! Check out the album for pictures and videos. Also, pray for my sweet nephew, Logan, as he had to get 13 staples in his head last week. He fell off of a bunk bed at his friends house and landed on a pot. Poor guy! :(

69 Candles

Have you ever seen 69 candles on a tiny, pink cake? Not an easy task! We had Chris' parents over for dinner on Sunday night for Glenn's birthday. Glenn says that he has never gotten a birthday cake, so here is documentation of it! The cake was good and had very little wax on it. ;) Happy Birthday, Grandpa!

My Strong Man

Ethan was a "strong man" in the Weekday School circus this morning. The girls in his class went first and they were ballerinas. Grandpa, Grandma, Aunt Kami, Chris, Emerson and I were all there cheering him on. As you can see at one point in the second video, the kids made an "Ethan sandwich." Apparently they were getting a bit bored! That's my kid and I adore him!! There are some pictures in the web album, but they came out really dark for some reason.

Tonight, Ethan and I are going on a triple date. We're going to dinner and then to see a Willy Wonka play with Amanda, Caleb, Mandy and Drew. I am very excited as Ethan and I rarely get one on one time together anymore. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
