That tree that split and hit our house during IKE is....
DOWN!!!
Here it is after the storms this weekend! Yea, not on our house or the neighbors! I'm so glad it is down. I was getting worried about it especially with hurricane season coming! But no more Worries!
Yep, Tyler and Ava had their first sleep over... with themselves! They fell asleep about 9:15 and Ava came to our bed about 12:00am and Tyler came in our bed about 2:30. Not bad for a first attempt. No crying and no calling parents to drop off their child in the middle of the night!
And yes Ava is not wearing a shirt, she wanted to sleep like Tyler does without a shirt! Looks so comfortable!!! Can't wait until next Saturday!
Meet Ava's newest friends!
Ava went to a birthday party a couple of weeks ago at her favorite place, Build-A-Bear! The girls could pick any animal they wanted! Ava picked this beautiful pink bear! Meet Flower!
Yesterday Ava spent some of her gift card left over from her birthday present from Grandma and Papa and bought a cute litte white seal. She named her Snowflake!
Here they all are: Pinky, Blue-e, Sweety, Koala-e, Stripes, Sparkles, Flower, Lamb-e, and Snowflake!
We had a weekend full of Egg decorating, Church, and searching for eggs. The kids were a little disappointed that the eggs only had money but then realized it was MONEY! It was a raining Easter day so we went out to lunch and went to Walmart to spend the gift card Mimi and GrandBob sent the kids. We bought the movie Bolt. They love this movie so Thank you for the Gift Card!
Tyler's Birthday was April 7. I'm a little behind in posting so here are some pictures from the day.
Tyler's friend, Katelyn came to school and ate lunch with him. She will be in kindergarten next year so it was good practice for her.
We brought Tyler McDonalds and cookies to pass out to his class.
Presents!!!
Some more Mario clothes and toys!
A DS game and a WII game. Yes the WII game is used but he loves it and didn't even notice. Check out his new watch which is already broken though!
We had a great time with Grandma and Papa. We miss them so much already!
What a day! The big Super Mario and Princess Peach Party was here. Jeff and I had spent hours getting ready and were thrilled my parents were here to help with the finishing touches! Everything was going as planned. I had moved everything we needed into the office so we wouldn't forget anything. First, we had a soccer game to go to and then back home to set up for the party. Well, while we were gone, Pickles had a blast going thru all the eggs, 260 of them, looking for chocolate. She managed to eat 40 chocolate bars. She had eggs all over. She did not open the ones with the coins or stickers in. I was in shock and forgot to take a picture! After the clean up we were back on schedule!
When the children arrived they were able to decorate a princess crown or put a mario hat on with a mustache.
All the activities:
Princess Peaches' Treasure Hunt: the kids went looking for easter eggs filled with candy, coins and stickers. The eggs with smiley faces won a prize.
