April 2019

Spring has FLOWN by!  Here are a few pictures from our April (out of order, as always :) )...

Easter egg dyeing:



Easter egg hunting:





Easter morning:



 

The boys went on a long weekend camping trip to Beaver's Bend at the beginning of the month.  


 





They caught a stringer full of trout, which they came home and cooked and ate!  
 

A highlight of every spring is camping at Daingerfield with the entire family.


We hiked...


And swam...



And did a LOT of fishing...










The boys kayaked...






And, as portrayed so well by Hank, we ATE!  :)


The boys played football in the field...

 

 

More hiking...


And more swimming...



More eating!  :)


And more fishing...




And this was how we all felt at the end of our 5-day trip.  :)  We had a blast and so enjoyed being outside in one of our favorite places in Texas together!


That wraps up our April!  :)

March 2019

Happy spring!  :)  Here are some pictures from our March...

At the beginning of March we spent a weekend in the Galveston area and had a blast.  We went to the Kemah Boardwalk and rode a bunch of rides...


See us up there? :)






We went to this small aquarium on the boardwalk and got to feed and pet stingrays!  It was so cool!!






 Eric and Eli did some fishing...


 

The morning we spent at the beach was foggy and chilly- actually a really neat way to experience Galveston.



We also went to NASA in Houston, which was super interesting.


 

 

I got to spend a day in Waco with my college roommate Jenn, and we had a blast eating, shopping, and catching up.  I clearly need to work on my "selfie" skills.  :)


Eli's class went on a field trip to the Perot Museum, which was fun but CROWDED!  :)





The best exhibit was the "Art of the Brick..." which was famous art pieces recreated with Legos.  Very impressive!


Cooper spent the night one evening...  there was plenty of wrestling, of course.  :)


They slept in a tent in our backyard and FROZE.  It was warm when they went to sleep but 40 degrees when they woke up!  :)


Eric and Eli always plant a garden each spring- we'll see what grows this year!


And that wraps up March!  :)  Love to you!!
