Egg Hunts Galore!

This week we had not one but THREE egg hunts to attend!
Egg Hunt #1 - Avery's school... each child found 6 eggs
with their names on them

Egg Hunt #2- Aaron's school... Aaron's teacher
numbered all the eggs 1-15 and each child had to find
them in numerical order! This proved to take a LONG
time!

Egg Hunt #3- Aunt Hollie's annual egg hunt

Strawberry Patch Field Trip

I was able to attend Aaron's strawberry patch field trip
last week.  The weather was perfectly warm and there
were a ton of other schools at Ms. Heather's Strawberry
farm.  The kids were super excited to pick their own
strawberries from the patch.  Our picking started out a little
rocky though since most of the rows were were looking
at had been picked clean already.  Aaron had his first
low blood sugar/heat related attack so I had to pull him
in the shade and after a bottle of water and a granola
bar he was good to go again... thankfully because Mom
was really afraid he was either going to pass out or
throw up.

The patch featured lots of other activities for the school
kids to do there... like face painting, slides, and a huge
bouncy bubble that was some how attached to the ground.

We were all TIRED after this field trip!

Daddy/Daughter Banquet 2015

Daddy and Avery attended the
daddy/daughter banquet at church this year.
Avery was so excited about picking out a
new dress and dancing with daddy at the banquet.

I helped decorate and serve the dinner so I
was able to be a fly on the wall for
their date.

They both had a great time!

Shopping Fun

We took the girls shopping for dresses for
the daddy/daughter banquet that is coming up
next weekend.  Gram joined us as well! The
girls loved riding with Gram... and they each choose
a pretty dress to wear.

Cell phone pictures this month

Here are a few cell phone photos from the last
couple of weeks:

Weekend in Lafayette

To celebrate my birthday and our 10 year
anniversary we went to Lafayette so that
Andrew and I could eat crawfish at our
favorite place.  Pop Pop and JuJu were
able to have fun with the kids which included
a pre Easter egg hunt!

Melting Pot Family Date

As the kids are getting older it is getting easier to do things
with them and this weekend we introduced them to fondue
cooking at the Melting Pot.  The Melting Pot was having a
kids eat free promotion and since it is expensive to eat there
anyway we decided it would be something fun to do.  The meal
took 2 hours and I was very impressed the kids behaved
themselves for the entire meal.  And I was happy they both
tried everything that came out.  Both of them LOVED the
dessert course!

Pedicure's with JuJu

Avery recently spent a few days with Pop Pop
and JuJu.  JuJu took her to get a pedicure before
bringing her home.  She loves to get her toes
painted!

First Grade Living Museum Day

Aaron's Living Museum project day was
last week.  Each student picked a person
in history to report on.  Aaron's choice was
Neil Armstrong! Each child was responsible
for picking 5 facts about this person and memorizing
them.  They also had to dress the part.  On the
museum day each student had a red "button"
attached to their costume and parents walked
around pressing this red button making them
come alive and they would tell you the 5 facts
they chose.

Pinewood Derby

This weekend was our first Pinewood Derby for the
Cub Scouts.  Both Aaron and Avery had cars in the
race (Avery was just for fun).  Neither of our cars won
any prizes but we all had a great time and it is good that
our children learn how not to win.

Valentine's Day Treasure Hunt

The kids received a special Valentine's Day
treasure hunt from Pop Pop and JuJu this
year.  They sent a letter in the mail telling them
the first clue and then Mommy had hid the other
clues per Judy's instructions around the house.

Though Bella ate one of the clues that was
outside the hunt was such a success! They
loved it!  At the end of the hunt they received each
a pillowcase and towel that JuJu had monogrammed.

Side note: I think Bella is pooping in one of the pictures
haha sorry!
