Easter Egg Hunt Overload

At the Easter egg hunt at school:

Aren't two baskets better than one. I had to convince him he wouldn't have an extra hand to actually pick up the eggs.

Well, okay... I guess just one will be okay.

Fun at the Ridgeland Easter egg hunt:

I got one all by myself!

We went to so many Easter egg hunts this year that both of my kids are pros. Brannon wasn't nearly as excited about the hunts where there were no prizes in the eggs. Coincidentally these were my favorite!

Dress Up

This is how boys play dress-up. What kind of combo is this? This pretty much describes him though. A cute sweet little bug that's extremely hard-headed!

Germ Theory

In the car after a trip to the museum...
Brannon: Mommy, I'm thirsty. Can I have some of your water? Please.
Me: Sure (handing it back to him in his car seat)
A few seconds later I reach back to retrieve my cup.
Brannon: Mommy you can't have any of this water.
Me: Why not?
Brannon: It has my germs in it. It will make you sick.
Me: It's my water and it had my germs in it first (okay so maybe I was whining a bit).
Brannon: (takes a sip)... Huh, I don't feel them.

St. Patrick's Day Parade (sort of)

We went to the children's parade downtown this year for the first time. However, we got so caught up playing fair games and rides that we actually missed the parade. The other day we passed one of those parking lot traveling carnivals and Brannon kept shouting, "Mommy, look it's a parade." Not exactly but who cares?

Good eats

I may only have 4 teeth but I love some Cracker Barrel...

And Waffle House!

(We really need to eat better! Tonight: grilled chicken. I promise!)

Grandparent road trip part 2

We had a great time at the beach with MeMe and Poppy. It started out really cold and then warmed up enough to get in our swimsuits (sorry my pictures are all out of order). Got to love the beach!!


The outside hot tub was not hot so we decided to improvise.

I'm falling... at least the sand is soft.

Brannon and Poppy braving the water.

Who said you have to be outside at the beach to have fun?
