Wordless Wednesday~ Dance pics!

Rainy day paint fun...

I saw this adorable flower paint craft on Pinterest and am lucky enough to have a great daycare provider who agreed to do this activity  with the kids today since it was a stay-inside-rain-forever kinda day...

Super Saturday

We had to halt our Saturday morning snuggles this week as Reagan had wee ball pictures bright and early.  It was the perfect day and I can't wait to see how they turned out.

I was so excited when I found out Pinkalicious was coming to the local Playhouse. It's one of Reagan's favorite books and I've also adapted one of the lines in the book on a weekly occasion, "You get what you get and you don't get upset." :)

The book has  a great message about what happens when we make a mistake and then how do we fix that mistake. Great teachable moment for Rea!  The play was so cute and fun, spot-on with the book and kept our attention throughout.   The actors did a fantastic job and the set was just like in the book.

I would recommend this play to anyone of all ages. A wonderful time!

And since it was such a beautiful day, we decided to join our friends at Adventureland for opening day! We had a blast on our favorite rides and loved not having to wait in lines.


The teacups are Rea's favorite.

 I see lots of popcorn in our future. Only $1 for refills...Rea was ecstatic!

Tradition: we always close the day with a train ride....

Hope everyone had a wonderful Saturday!

Let's Play Ball!

Reagan had her first wee ball practice last night. This is her first year using an actual baseball glove. She was pretty shy in the field but had some good hits.  We reviewed the bases and she remembered home plate!

It's so cute to watch the kiddos at this age... she has a great team this year and I know she'll have so much fun...

Happy Easter!

I was really excited for Easter this year...to host our family and friends and to see Reagan's reaction to the Easter bunny stopping by. Her reaction was priceless and after some 'awesome mom and dad!' and 'I'm bursting with happy!' we settled down and looked through her goodies.

We did the typical chalk (she was low) books (she really needed more age appropriate) dance outfit (outgrew all of her old ones) dress up outfit, candy, and prek prep books (she is loving math right now!). Her big gift was her new bike and she was so excited to hop on! This will be a good thing for us- the plan is for Andy and myself to get bikes and then I see many fun family bike rides in our future.

We welcomed our family and friends and as with all holidays, enjoyed so much good food and festive drinks- peeptini anyone? Sweet but ever so tasty!  We told stories, we laughed, and the kids were spoiled by our dear friend Annette, with a fun Easter egg hunt. They had so much fun looking for eggs and finding neat treasures! Thank you again Aunt Nette!

I never forget the reason behind the holiday and we give thanks for all our blessings- our health, happiness, love and fellowship.  I'm so grateful for this life and those that help fill it.  Much love and many Easter blessings!


The Easter bunny came!

She wore her fairy wings all. day. long.

Disclaimer: She does own a bike helmet and will be wearing it from here on out. Mommy fail: I forgot to grab her helmet in all her bike excitement.

The 3 amigos... with a new friend!

Thanks G&G W. for the Easter baskets!

I went back and forth...china or paper. I love using our china set but... have to work tomorrow so paper won this year.

Peeptini! Banana liquor, whipped vodka and orange/pineapple juice. Yum!

Egg hunt!

The loot!

She called these her 'movie' glasses?  She cracks me up.

Let's fly a kite!
