Heebie-Jeebies

Last Tuesday the boys and I headed to Chick-fil-a for Family night and boy oh BOY did they have fun! I'm thankful for the zoom feature on my camera so I could keep my distance!

I have no idea what this ugly thing is, but Dallin thought it was super amazing!

Some ugly lizard...

Yep. Hayden's petting a gator. A real live man-eating GATOR!!!

Not so sure about the boa...

I guess he warmed up to it though. I'm getting the shivers just sitting here on my couch remembering that thing around his neck! *shudder*

Handsome Pants

A guy, his kids, and a golf cart...

It's a beautiful thing!

My Mother's Day Gift

Mike surprised me yesterday morning with these two pictures framed on my table. He went on Saturday night to have them done while I went to Hobby Lobby and Joann's for HOURS by myself! I was so impressed that he thought of this by himself!

Studs.

Sorry it's blurry - this little guy seems to only take blurry pictures!
He's ALWAYS moving!

See?

More Easter Egg Hunts

Hayden the Great

Quick story - Hayden was super excited about the egg hunt they were scheduled to have at school the Thursday before Easter. With great jubilation he darted around the playground looking under plastic cones, behind slides, buried in sand and other places the sneaky Easter Bunny decided to hide them!

He excitedly brought over his basket with several eggs in it and we chatted a bit about how much fun he was having.

A few minutes later he discovered that one of his classmates didn't have very many eggs so he ran to his basket, grabbed half of his eggs and gave them to his friend. Seriously made me tear up!

Another quick story...when Hayden and I were going through his Valentine's Day cards from school and I was reading through the names and as soon as I said, "This one's from Grace" he stopped, grinned and said, "She's pretty"...and my heart stopped!

Here we have Grace
