April Happenings

Post by Grayson:

Check out my big brother!  He is pointing to his Accelerated Reader horse on display at his school.  He reads books and then answers questions about them to earn points!  He is amazing!

Speaking of amazing, we are loving gardening!  Isn't this a beautiful iris?

My brother helps to water. You can see watermelon growing behind him.  We also have tomatoes growing and peppers.

I don't really help with the garden but I do get messy and need a bath!

Here I am talking to my brother on the boat.

I went to a birthday party!  Reid (on the right) is now 1!  He had a party at the park and invited me and our other baby friend, Mason (on the left).

We had so much fun!

April is just a great month to be outside!  Here I am with Aunt Nettie!

She is so helpful!

And I love her!

I am still crawling by pulling with my arms and pushing with my toes.  My doctor says this counts as crawling and it should because I sure can get around!

What do you mean you don't want me here?

The cats want to go outside.

So do I!

A little more Easter

Post by Owen:

We dyed eggs this year!

Here I am writing on an egg with a crayon.  Did you know that the dye will not stick to the wax?

Look at all these supplies.  Thanks, Barbie!

We had yellow dye and blue dye, so . . . 

. . . we made a GREEN egg by dipping it in each color!

What fun!

Here are our baskets.  Mine is on the right.  Guess what is in each of Grayson's eggs . . . cheerios!

Easter morning I was so excited about my new books and candy.

For Easter lunch Grant, Lynn, Mac, and Virginia and Barbie came over.  We had a great time.  Here are my brother and Virginia each playing with their electronics! 

These pictures have nothing to do with Easter.  A friend of Bill's took them of our boat a few years ago.  We thought you would all like to see beautiful Breezing Up!

Happy Easter!

Brothers ready for the egg hunt!

Grayson: Hey, you're squishing my head!

Owen: "G, you are supposed to be making a silly face!"

The Easter Bunny came to the Egg Hunt!

We all wore name tags at the hunt!

And here we are this morning at church!

Happy Easter!

Row, Row, Row Your Boat!

We did something amazing a few weeks ago.  We sailed to a destination near a restaurant - Bubba's.  We anchored.  Then, we rowed a dingy to shore!  Here I am with Bill as my oarman.

Grayson was along for the fun, too!

This is navigation software.  See the red circle?  It tells the computer where our boat is.

I love being on the boat with Nettie and Bill.

And with my parents, too.  Here's daddy tending a hurt on my knee.  See my Wonder Woman headband and my Rice shirt?

And here's momma putting on sun screen!  They do a lot to keep me safe.
