Happy St. Patty's Day!

Today was St. Patty's Day, but also the first day of our Spring Break! The girls and I went out to lunch, shopped for summer clothes and saw Horton Hears a Who (which was really cute by the way). We also made some green snickerdoodles... from scratch!


Megan was in charge of cleaning the dishes...
Are they done yet?

Easter Party

Megan's class had their Easter Party today because they will be out for Spring Break next week. I volunteered to help with the party and had a great time watching the kids hunt for eggs, make a bunny mask craft and eat yummy cupcakes.
Megan is the one with tall pink ears! :)
The kiddos listened as Mrs. Lia read a story about a bunny.

How many do I have?!

Open House

Tonight we visited Emily's school to enjoy the 1st Grade Musical production of The Cheese Stands Alone. Unfortunately, we failed to sit on the correct side, so we didn't get to see Emily's pretty little face as she was singing, but we were pleased to see that she stood on the edge! Afterwards, we stayed for Open House.

A Day in Denton

This morning, Emily woke me up and said "Daddy is going to work all day... will you take us bowling?" What a great idea... we hadn't been blowing in almost a year! Luckily, Grandma, Grandpa and Aunt Sissy were available so we met them in Denton (the halfway point) for some lunch, bowling and ice cream! Grandpa could only stay for lunch, but we were sure glad we got to see him at all!

Only in Texas can you enjoy ice cream outside on a beautiful afternoon... 2 days after a snow storm!

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow...

We were thrilled to have so much snow to play in this afternoon! The girls and I had a snow ball fight with some neighbors and even built a snow princess! What a great afternoon!

Snow Angels

The girls were so excited to wake up and find that it had snowed so much during the night. I was grateful for the 2 hour school delay which allowed us the time to get out and enjoy it… because by noon, there was nothing but grass.

GO Pink Lightning!

Emily just started playing soccer and today was her first game. She played great and had a lot of fun... and Pink Lightening Won! Grandparents and Aunt Sissy came to cheer her on. Afterwards we celebrated by having a Tex-Mex lunch at Cristina's... Emily's restaurant of choice.

Pretty cute soccer girl, huh?

Megan cheered her sister on from the front row! Emily played great for her fist game ever! We are very proud of her!
