Easter

April 4, 2018

Easter morning we woke up and were happy to see that the bunny had been by!

All kinds of goodies for my crew! and plenty of candy too! We then got dressed in our Easter finest to head down to Montgomery for the day. While I was helping the boys get ready, Samantha disappeared and then re-appeared crying “I sorry Mama! I sorry!”. When I saw her, I knew why she was sorry…

pen

Yep, that’s ink. She took apart an ink pen in Maxwell’s room and was covered head to toe. That was after she had drawn on the back of Maxwell’s chair. I guess my kids just have a thing for furniture art! Thankfully she didn’t get much at all on the carpet and, even more thankfully, she didn’t have her dress on yet!! He dress was super special because it was the same dress that I wore for Easter when I was 3!

So cute I can barely stand it!! A few more from Easter 1981…

We had a great day in Montgomery – lunch at the country club and then plenty of visiting and cousin play time at Lulu and Granddaddy’s house afterward. I also got a few more good group pictures….

Egg Hunt

April 3, 2018

I’m going to go backward and recap Easter before Spring break. On Saturday, we put on our best spring outfits and drove down to the annual Inscoe egg hunt. Everyone was looking very, very sharp! (in my opinion!)

I mean…the cutest.

We had a great time at the hunt. The weather could not have been more perfect and we saw lots of good friends and family. Samantha was a bit cranky when we first arrived and seemed to be attached to my leg, but she eventually warmed up and was chasing boys around and loving getting to play with baby Margaret!

Valentine Art Show

February 15, 2018

Like last year, Spencer had a Valentine Art Show up at school for grandparents to attend. Thankfully Lulu and Granddaddy were able to make the trip up to see him sing and check out his fantastic art! My cuties looking cute that morning…

Two peas in a pod

February 9, 2018

These two are like peas in a pod!

And GJ gave Samantha her favorite gift – a new mermaid purse full of treasures like a Little Mermaid key chain with key, sunglasses, chap stick (yay!), and a mini iPhone, iPad, and “pooter”! She even had to take them to her party with her..

The phone, iPad, and computer were actually for her baby dolls but she’s been using them to get a lot of important work done!

Love her and GJ too!

Mermaid dance party

February 8, 2018

We celebrated Samantha’s 3rd party last weekend with a party at the place where she does dance. It wasn’t just any party though, it was a mermaid party!

party

The whole thing was about as cute as it gets. The girls in tutus, the Little Mermaid music playing on the piano, Samantha twirling and twirling and twirling! It was all of my little girl dreams…ummm, I mean Samantha’s little girl dreams come true! Β πŸ™‚
