Early Spring Update

We had both sides of the fam over for Easter lunch and it was great :)

The kids had a blast hunting Easter eggs in the backyard and especially loved the bubble machine & its endless suppy of bubbles = squeeling joy from a 4, almost 2, and a 15 month old!!

Here are a few shots of Ash and her Easter basket - The Easter Bunny left her some mini M&Ms, spring colored playdough & some egg shaped playing cards --- all of which she loves! We have a little chocolate monster on our hands....she is constantly pointing at the counter (where we keep the M&Ms) saying baby MMs baby MMs - pease baby MMs --- oh dear, what have we done!



The Thursday before Easter, Ashley and I spent the day at the Arboretum w/ Gigi, Memaw & Papaw, and Bonnie & John. We had a great time - Ashley didn't want much to do with sitting still for pictures - but we got a few good ones ;) My favorite is the one of her peeking out the little cottage window!!!! ADORABLE (or at least I think so!)

Day at park w/ Daddy :) Hanging out, swinging, sliding, running, jumping, kicking a ball, flying a kite - oh, what fun!

Happy Easter!

I LOVE DIGITAL SCRAPBOOKING! So fun ~ Here's the Easter card I made to send out to family.

Road Trip Baby!

Eric was working on a client in Houston this week - so Ashley and I decided to make the trek down there with him. We stayed at the Westin Galleria - so Ash and I enjoyed some shopping and watching the ice skaters. We also got to spend a few days with our good friends Ashley, Luke & Halle. Halle and Ashley are only one month apart and had a blast playing together and even had a little slumber party on Wednesday night. The weather was so nice in Houston. Here are some pics of our week - and the snow that we came home to today! I'm sad that we missed the actual flakes and snow storm - but I guess the left over ice mush was good enough for Ashley to play in today. Oh and on a side note...I put Ashley in Pigtails one day last week - and she thinks they are hilarious! She has requested them everyday since! What a cutie!

PIGTAILS!!!!!
For some reason I've always wanted to stop at this statue of Sam Houston on the way from Dallas to Houston - I love it....I guess just because it's so big! Anyways...I made Eric pull over on the way down this time and we got out to stretch our legs for awhile and some nice man snapped this awesome pic of us! I love how small we are!
Here is Ashley reading a book to her baby before bed.
And enjoying room service the next morning. YUM!
Ashley and Halle jumping at the park.

It was SOOO hard to get a pic of both girls looking at the camera!

I've been taged...so here goes...

10 years ago: I was 2 months away from meeting the guy that I would fall in love with and marry.

Things on my to do list today:
Go to Church
Do some laundry
Pack
Get Prescriptions Refilled
RSVP for a Baby Shower
Call My Friend Ashley
Find Shoes to Match My Bridesmaid Dress for Katy's Wedding
Clean the Whole House {ok...so this one is permanently on my list - b/c I HATE to do it}

What would I do if I suddenly became a Billionaire:
I would call a Kitchen Makeover Crew out to my house immediately - I hate our kitchen! and while they were fixing it all up nice and pretty - I would start researching how to set up a foundation to help bring joy to children who are sick.

Three of my bad habits:
1. I'm WAY to shy! Seriously, not sure what is wrong w/ me!
2. I get all excited about my little "side businesses" and then get bored with them within a months time - so all the work is kind of a waste.
3. I hate to clean - but I already mentioned that above.

Five jobs I have had:
Cosemetics Girl @ Drug Emporium
Tom Thumb Cashier
T.A. (Teacher's Assistant) for one of the Accounting Dept. Professors @ BU
External Auditor @ PricewaterhouseCoopers
Senior Auditor @ FedEx

Five things people don't know about me:
1. I have a weird "itch" every 4 years to cut my hair...and I mean cut it short. I'm fighting it right now b/c I want to get through Katy's wedding and possibly our high school reunion before cutting it all off....we'll see if I can make it.
2. I drink TONS of milk...WHOLE milk :) YUM!
3. Supposedly I'm related to Michelle Phieffer and Sean Connery
4. I hate talking on the phone.
5. I've never been able to figure out if I dream in color or black and white.

I tag: Ashley, Tiffani, Kristen, Jerica, & Lisa {have fun girls!}
