Spring has sprung!

It has been a fun couple of months. Spring has always been my favorite time of year.  There's just something about the blue skies, things starting to bloom and spending all day outside.  Here's a little re-cap of our spring, so far...

Liam has started to play t-ball.  There nothing much cuter (and funnier) than watching a lot of 4 and 5 year olds play baseball.  Liam has been great. 
 I think we've definitely got a future big leaguer on our hands:)


We had a great Spring Break at Mexico beach with some very sweet friends.  So incredibly blessed by our friendship with this family.
And yes, it is very hard to get 4 kids to look at the camera and smile.  (and this is only 4 of the 5 kids we had there).



We had a great Easter celebrating our risen Savior.  School easter egg hunts, church easter egg hunts (one with a helicopter) and a hunt at our best friends' house, lunch at Cracker Barrel (cause this mama was just lazy) and lots of fun time with family and friends over the weekend.

Happy Easter!
And everyone needs a kung-fu picture while taking Easter pictures


We were also very blessed to go to the beach a 2nd time for the weekend.  It was such a fun weekend for our family.  There's just nothing like getting away with each other to do nothing but have fun together.  And we definitely have two kids that love the water.  I think Emma would stay in the water all day long every single day.  She really is an excellent swimmer and doesn't seem to mind even when the water is freezing.  Lots of memories made on this trip!
fun in the sun!


First time kayaking in the ocean
Nothing like putt-putt at the beach
 And, of course, no spring would be complete without Field Day!  Field Day brings back so many memories from elementary school.  There's just nothing quite like it.  There's no other time that you get to do an egg race, jump in a sack and do tug-of-war...and get out of class all day.
Go Green!

Winning 1st place in tug-of-war

Emma and Liam only have a few more weeks of school filled with field trips, K4 graduation, parties and all of the other fun stuff that makes the last few weeks of school so exciting.  I feel like a little kid waiting for Summer..it can't come soon enough!
