After dinner Snow Cone Treat!

Uncle Jake R.N.!

We are so excited that Uncle Jake is official a graduate
of Nursing at LSUA! It has been such a long road for
him but he did it! My mom would be so proud of him!

A visit to Bub Bub

We visited Bub Bub's grave on the
way to Alexandria last week. We do not
go very often since it is so far away plus
I don't think Bub Bub would want us
to remember her as a piece of stone anyway.

I ordered these small stones with the kids
names and birthdays on them for Mother's
Day.  I will order one for Jake's baby as
well when he or she is born in August.

A little pool party at home

End of the year splash party

Aaron and Daddy attended the end of the year
Luau at Aaron's school this Friday.  Aaron had a
blast at all of the different stations-- he says his
favorite were the water slides and the shaving cream!

Cookie making with Gram

Gram made cookies with the girls
while we were at the baseball game...
they decorated the cookies with the boys
when we got back!

LSU Baseball Game

We were given 4 LSU baseball tickets
this week and invited David to come along
with us.  Gram and Paw Paw kept the girls
which was great because it was HOT!
We only lasted 4 innings then headed to
FrostTop for Coke floats!

Stroller Derby!

Brooklyn came to visit the other day and Aunt Hollie
brought along Brooklyn's stroller as well.  The strollers
are a hot ticket item with these 2... we thought that
each having one would be the best thing... and it was
for about 30 minutes!  Then they were fighting over
each others strollers and we had our first biting incident!
Avery bit Brooklyn not once but TWICE!

Final Tball Game

Aaron played his final tball game this week.
Next year he will be in Coach's pitch-- it is
bittersweet but he is so ready for next season!

What a difference a year makes!

Present opening and pinata time!



Paw Paw was "holding" Aaron's candy
for him :)

Cake Time!

No princess party would be complete without 2
birthday cakes! One chocolate and One vanilla of
course!

Birthday Playtime

We orginally planned to have the birthday party
at the park and rent a bounce house for outside but
the weather did not work with us so we winded up
renting the gym at church which turned out to be
great for the bounce house and the church has an
indoor play area that was prefect for the party!

I love this picture! Avery LOVES David!

Birthday Girls!

We celebrate Brooklyn and Avery's 2nd
birthday with a joint Princess Party
this weekend.  Avery really doesn't turn
2 until July but just celebrated a little
early! Here are some pre party pictures!

My beautiful girl!

Mother's Day Program at school

I attended the Mother's Day program at Aaron's
school this week. It was really cute! They sang several
songs and then we had cookies and punch and mother's
day crafts made by the kids. 

Aaron's first sleepover at our house

We invited Aaron's best bud Jackson over to spend
the night on Friday night.  I'm not sure who was more
excited about it-- Aaron or Avery? She loved sitting
in the room with them... we think she is already
a little boy crazy..... lord help us when she is a
teenager!

Splash Park Fun

Saturday was pretty warm so we took the kids to
the splash park in Baker-- Avery wasn't all that into
it but Aaron loved it.  Avery didn't like the water to
spray her in the face but she looked so cute in her
new swimsuit and water shoes!
