Easter Party

The weekend before Easter, the kids at church had an Easter egg hunt and made some Easter crafts. Normally, Joyce will have the egg hunt at her home, but with all the rain we had been receiving, it was just too wet.  So the party was held at the church building.











 The egg hiders...







Backyard Camp Out

While Michael was home on his spring break, Avery and Benton were somehow able to talk him into a backyard camp out.  I figured they would last out there until midnight or so.  They stayed out there ALL night long!  They (Avery and Benton - not to sure about Michael) had so much fun!  They still talk about it to this day.  Avery is lucky to have a pretty good big brother like Michael - even if he likes to aggravate the fire out of her at times!

Can't have a camp out with out hot dogs











Avery turns 4

Our curly headed friend turned 4 years old in March.  She had been saying for several months that she wanted a My Little Pony birthday party...up until the a week before her party and then she shifted gears on me and wanted a Frozen party.  Since I am a last minute birthday planner, that was no problem with the help of my good friend Pinterest.

Michael and Leanna drove in from Tennessee for the party as Avery patiently waited for them to arrive.
Courtney got creative with her chalk art





Happy Birthday Avery!  We love you and thank God every day for bringing you into our lives!

January & February 2015

January and February seemed to fly by.  Michael left to go back to Tennessee.  Work was really busy for me, just like it is every January and February, so we really didn't do anything exciting.



 Avery's Memaw made her some sleeping bags and a campfire for her doll house toys.

 Our good friends from West Texas came to visit for a couple of days.  It is always a joy to have the Turners stay with us.  Ryan wasn't able to make it this trip, but Molly and the kids were just as fun as always.


 

 This guy turned the big 5-0!  He made me promise no big party.  It was a good thing I didn't play one since he had the flu on his birthday.

 We woke up one morning to around 6 inches of snow!
 Caleb turned 23!  Seems impossible...
 Still trying to figure out how to tame this mane...but I love it!
