Molly's field day

Molly's school hosted a field day last week.  Molly was a little hesitant about the idea of racing as running is not something she really finds pleasure in.  I guess her competitive side kicked in when she started to race because she did awesome and I loved watching her run.  She was first in her group in the 100 and even in the 200.  In the 50 yard dash she came in just behind one of the teachers!  It was a fun day and I'm crossing my fingers that she will one day love to run!

Tea with Mom

Johnny's preschool hosted a little breakfast for the mom's.  We enjoyed pastries and juice and worked together on a craft.  Johnny was very excited for this day and loved all the attention from mom! 

Bluebonnets!

Molly's Zoo Field Trip

Molly had her first field trip and it was to the Austin Zoo.  I had already offered to volunteer at western day for Johnny so I could not chaperone the trip.  Luckily one of Molly's good friend's mom went and took a bunch of pictures of Molly for me.  Molly loved the experience, especially riding on the bus!

Western Day

Johnny's preschool had "Western Day" last week.  The school organized several activities; crafts, square dancing, a petting zoo, and horse rides.  I volunteered to help so Samuel was also able to participate in some of the activities.
I have to give credit to my friend Melissa (Johnny's best friend's mom) for taking all pictures, she came prepared with an actual camera, not just her phone!

Easter

Easter consisted of egg dying, Easter baskets, egg hunts, church, lots of pictures, and lots and lots of candy.

Minnesota Cousins Visit

We were so excited when we heard Uncle Shawn, Aunt Shawna, Noah, Micah, and Celia would be spending their spring break in Austin!  We really enjoyed their visit.  I loved seeing the kids interact.  It is amazing that as infrequent as they see one another, they still hold a special bond and are able to play and be friends immediately. 
While here we spent the days swimming, fossil finding, playing, and to top it off, a trip to Sea World.  Maybe we can convince Shawn and Shawna to make this an annual vacation. . . or better yet, move back here!!!

*sidenote: Shawna and I were watching the kids play, we look over and this little guy (Samuel) is on top of the table entertaining all the kids. Yes, this is totally his personality!
