Swimming Lessons!

Last week Emmie started this! She has been doing very well. The second day she was not very happy, but by Friday she was totally ok with it and actually smiling. I took some video of her, but I can't seem to get it to download. I'll keep trying. This program is so AMAZING! All of the boys have been through the program - Rhonda has actually taught them all. We have NEVER bought a pair of floaties! Since we live in Florida with lots of water, pools and ponds it was a no brainer! It is about the only thing we can hang our hat on as parents! We do a lot wrong, but this was something we've done right ( 4 times now)! It's hard work, but well worth it!

Sorry I am just NOW posting pics of Easter. We have been so busy around here; keeping up with kids, doing science projects, cleaning house, T-ball games, looking for minivans... Oh the list goes on! Well here's some pics you'll enjoy! Landon and his best bud, Brandon, decided to cut their "wigs"! They shook hands to make sure neither would back out. Let's just say that Landon is loving his new short do!

This is one of the groups of kids from Toby's moms side of the family. There is always a huge posie of kids. Look at 'em go!!

Emmie loved looking for the eggs!

Yeah and here is our easter pic! This is the best of 5. Corbin wanted NO part of having his picture taken!

Hope everyone is well! Enjoy your day!

Alleluia!

Eggs and X-Games

Good Friday was a really Good Friday! For years, me and the kids would go over to my Gran's house and color Easter eggs. The kids always looked forward to this tradition. The loved GG (as they called her)! She would have everything ready and set up for us. We would pick up lunch and enjoy a few hours together. In memory of Great Gran, my Dad, brother, his wife and kids all came over and we colored Easter eggs together. It was fun. I was a little out of sorts...GG always did everything. I even had to call my mom-in-la (Tickle) to find out how to boil the eggs!

The kids had a blast! They love being together.

This is the egg Landon made for GG!

Emmie thought it was quite fun, too!

Later in the afternoon the kids and neighborhood kids put on THE X-Games! It started at 5pm sharp!! We had autograph books, fireworks, cookies and kool-aide and lots of TRICKS!

This is Brandon doing his BIG trick!

Here they are...what a group!

Spring Has Sprung

How can you not give Praise to God! Look around at All of life's wonderful Blessing!

Corbin brought this little guy home yesterday. He said he needs water and a hair cut!

Corbin had his Easter Party at school. He filled his basket to the brim! The weather has been beautiful - minus a few cold snaps here and there! We had a great day at the beach last weekend.

Praise be to GOD!
