Christmas Eve

 

We spent Christmas Eve with my parents. My camera broke a couple of weeks ago…so thank goodness my sister got a new one! So here is our night in pictures!Caroline got a backpack from her Aunt Jen and Uncle Trey. She has been dying for a Rolling backpack…so needless to say, she freaked out!

That is my crazy man…ready for a good time!

Rainy Fourth of July

Today was the Fourth of July...one of my favorite holidays. I love spending time outside with friends and family, cooking out, and watching fireworks. We woke up to rain and it rained all day long! We had made plans to go swimming, so we of course had to scrap those. We decided to go over to Jesse's sisters house for a BBQ indoors. We still had so much fun celebrating our great country!!!

Easter Sunday

Today was Easter. What a great day it was. Not only was it the day we celebrate family and tradition, but it is the day we, as believers celebrate, our Risen Savior. I woke up this morning feeling so thankful and so grateful that I have a relationship with my King. I am thankful for his sacrifice and that I will someday live with him eternally. We headed to church to praise and worship our Savior and then we spent the day with Jesse’s family and the evening with my family. I did not take nearly enough pictures to accurately depict the fun we had. That night we watched the final episode of The Bible at my parents house. It was amazing to see the connection Will made and how powerfully it impacted him. He is talking about baptism and being saved and I could not be happier. I know when the time is right, the  Lord is going to do mighty things with his little life and Caroline’s life too.

The bunny came…

Our family of four…almost five!!!

Sweet cousins…minus the little two! Can’t believe next Easter, there will be two more!!!

Getting ready for the Egg hunt!

The cake I made for my parents house!

Annual Egg Dyeing picture

We dyed eggs in Florida with Jen over Spring Break, but my kids were in no way letting me off the hook! We had bought a dye kit a couple of weeks ago and I had to hide it so they would not ask every day! I bought a glitter kit and a marble kit. Neither worked like they should have…but that did not stop our fun! I love this tradition as a child and it is so fun to be able to share in the fun with my own children!

26 weeks and Valentine’s Day

Jesse was out of town on Valentine’s Day, so we decided to spend Love Day hanging out with some super sweet cousins. We headed to Chick Fil A for a little food and playtime.
