Around the House New Projects

Our Christmas bike rack finally on the KIA and ready to go....
Our new garden - in, planted and growing like crazy with all this rain and sun

Hopefully more progress to show soon

Mothers Day




The week before Mother's Day proved to be quite difficult for us...Aiden got pretty sick with the whole vomiting, diarhea and ear infection. Fun, Fun for Everyone. PLus that week my mom had a small surgery, and many other family members had too much medical stuff going on, needless to say, that weekend we did fairly simple. This was my mothers day gift from Aiden we picked out a new tree for the yard. I wanted to get a tree when he was born but planting in December didn't seem smart, then the last year has just passed us by so we picked one out now and it is in the ground and growing tall. Yah!

Aiden's new favorite spot...

Wedding Heaven
















This weekend was the Foxworthy-Ruffner beautiful wedding weekend. It started Friday afternoon and didn't end till Sunday afternoon. It was a wonderful weekend with great food, good friends, amazing accomodations and a stunning bride! I know the wedding was everything Emily had planned diligently for in the last year- and it showed. Here are a few shots of the great day!

AIR Jumping Place

This week off we have visited the library, Turtle Bay, Jackson Heights (I know why I don't normally take him to school) and today we went to Party ExtraordinAIR....off Ashby. It was really fun, The Lanham's invited us and we invited Whitnee to join us- she bravely brought both girls, as Chase was out of town and so we made it for a whole 90 minutes of bouncing, running and laughing...I'm sure we will be back again!












Easter Sunday....Rainy Day

Even with all the new things, still playing with the old stuff!

I like the eggs and how they shake!


I get it you have to take things out..
It was a crazy hunt for eggs



Easter Sunday's plans changed a bit when the crazy weather arrived Saturday night....after Cadence's 1st birthday....so we went to church and opened our Easter basket and went to Nana and Papa's for a little ham dinner and mini indoor Easter Egg Hunt....here's hopin' for next year.

Egg Dying







Easter this year we are trying to do a few of the traditions, starting with dying eggs. It proved to be a great challenge as Aiden wanted to throw the eggs like a ball or bang them together like he does large rocks. As a result most of the hard boiled eggs are "pre-cracked" at our house, you don't have to do it yourself. As for the dye we were trying to keep it off his fingers, off the pj's and from overflowing in the cup-of course while I tried to take a picture and video tape this family moment. In the middle of dying eggs to top things off Aiden decided to take his daily poop-yep so timeout egg dying DIAPER change time, and then mom hurried and did as much as possible before he got back so we could clean up! Oh what fun- at least there's more years to come!
