Hudson's Party..On The Farm!

We all celebrated Hudson's 2nd birthday with lots of friends and family. Papa and Grammy brought their horse for all the kids to ride. Those who were brave enough to ride had a great time! Some were not to sure about getting on the horse. But there were plenty of other things to do inside. Hudson loved all the animal toys and to our surprise he did a great job of 'sharing'!! Way to go Hudson! Mimi, Popie Joe, Uncle John Wade, Holly and Jackson all spent the night and that made it extra special too!

Rylan Learns to Mow

Ryan has been teaching Rylan (age 7 1/2) to mow. I looked out the window last Sunday to see how it was going. I couldn't resist taking a few pictures. Rylan was mowing and Ryan was trying to follow his pattern...it was a bit crooked! Rylan, however, loved mowing and is looking forward to doing some more mowing this summer. We will definitely take advantage of his enthusiasm for mowing, while it last!

Easter In Houston

While it was snowing back home in Brownwood, we were in Houston...

Got to love that Texas weather! We had a great time in Houston with Ryan's family. Aunt Leeshie and her boyfriend Clark were wonderful host. We swam, went to NASA, jumped in the 'bouncy castle', ate in wonderful restaurants, and colored eggs. We also watched Alicia play in a tennis tournament. Our boys had SO much fun. Now, they are wondering when they get to go back and stay with Aunt Leeshie again...how about summer camp at your house Alicia!!

Egg Hunts Galore!

We had made plans to spend Easter weekend in Houston with Ryan's family, but before we left, the Easter bunny dropped off a few eggs at Grammy and Papa's house in Brownwood. Rylan, Caden, Landry and Hudson enjoy a 'wrestling match' on the trampoline(photo below)! Hudson and Cobe had their egg hunt first(photo above) Cobe kept sticking his head in the basket tyring to figure out what those bright colored things were! Meanwhile, Hudson caught on quickly and loved the candy! Rylan and Caden found a new way to make good use out their Easter basket by wearing them as hats.

Caden's Preschool Egg Hunt & Picnic

Caden was finished hunting his eggs before I could get out the camera!! Since younger children were there also, his teacher told the class each of them could only find 12 eggs. As you can imagine, Caden didn't like that rule much! He had a great time anyway. His class had a pizza picnic, followed by a pinata.
