Past Few Weeks...

The past few weeks have been filled with...

Egg hunts...

Where both kiddos decided to go for the "big prizes". The horn sounded and they were off... Walker stepped in a hole and took a spill, then with tears tried to get eggs but just wasn't in the mood. (yeah this will be the egg hunt remembered for years after) Ainsley had a good start but as she bent down to grab the Easter basket someone snatched it right from under her... she did get a bucket full of eggs and lovingly shared with her brother.

Mr E. B. came and delivered eggs filled with Lego pieces and candy. Walker was glad since a couple days earlier he says, "I hope we don't get the "Mester Bunny"... uh... what's that? "You know the kind of bunny that's mean and doesn't leave a thing!"

Little Bug was very excited to find a Lego dinosaur in his basket too...

Since Ainsley's birthday fell on Easter this year we had mass in our Easter best...

Instead of a traditional ham dinner we had popcorn at the movie theater while watching "Mirror, Mirror" and birthday cake for dessert...

And a big sleepover that evening...

Flowers in the yard have bloomed...

Bling was added to our now 10 YEAR OLD Miss Ainsley's hair in the colors of blue, green and silver...

The Skating Birthday party was a success with Rainbow layered cupcakes...

A ton of very loud girls...

And skating...

Fun Party goodie bags...

And of course a rainbow layered cake...

During this time we also had Walker's first Soccer game... where he insisted on wearing his gloves??..but he was more into the game than finding his shadow this year!

Finally there was Ainsley's violin festival... which she did amazingly well at. A total surprise for there was a lack of practice leading up to it. They move at a slow pace and I don't think it's as challenging for her as piano. She loves piano and practices that constantly with out much reminding and is moving through her second book quickly!

Whew... a whirlwind couple of weeks!!
