Here and There

Last weekend, Craig had a crazy idea to go to the beach!  For him, that is crazy.   After T-Ball, we headed down to the coast for a relaxing day on the sand.  The weather was perfect, the kids had a blast and we even saw a pod of dolphins.  This was the first time ever, just the 4 of us have been to the beach.  We've gone before with family, but never just us.  The second picture (if you can see) captures the feeling of the water on Craig's face - COLD!  The kids didn't seem to mind.  After the beach, we headed to a local seafood restaurant and hit Sonic on the way home for milkshakes!  I love these times with my family.







This girl is so funny!  

 Notice anything under Kate's bed???

Easter

April seems to have flown by!  We've been doing a few things enjoying the spring weather and we celebrated Easter.  Who doesn't love Easter?  We get to celebrate the resurrection of our living God and eat all the Easter candy we want!  The day before Easter, we went to our friends house to dye some eggs and hang out.  As you can see from Kate's face, it is a very delicate science.



Sunday morning was the usual photo shoot and Easter baskets.  Last year we did resurrection rolls, but Sundays are hard to do big breakfasts, so we opted for a Saturday morning of bacon and biscuits.  



After church, we went to my parents to eat lunch, hang out and hunt some eggs.  We waited for Brooks to get up from his nap.  This year each kid had a certain egg color to look for and we hid the eggs based on their age.  Brooks was non-discriminate and picked up about 4 eggs, sat down and age the candy immediately.
