Lord forgive us when we get consumed by the things of this world, That fight for our love, and our passion, As our eyes are open wide and on you. Grant us the privilege of your world view, And may your kingdom be, what wakes us up, and lays us down
Sam is hard at work removing old nails!
Pulling Nails really is So much Fun!
On Second thought maybe Pulling nails makes you Homicidal.
On to more peaceful work.. Avelynn is working calmly filling holes back in.
Wearing a flower skirt no less!
And Now the Fence is done but the final Pictures are not so
To be continued......
PS - out of respect for the Grandma's all picture of them have been excluded ! ;-)
Kick Practice!
Samuel Loves Her, too! (but he secretly calls her Daisy, don't tell Ava! wink wink)
This is the kids scrubbing their toy bucket nice and clean. I think this may have been more fun than going to a pool!
We spent Friday cleaning out and rearranging the kids room! It was quite an adventure..
It is amazing how quickly a room can take on a life of its own. The kids play and get out toys and its like it becomes a living monster threatening to consume the whole house! SO... we killed that monster and I am not sure who is happier Momma or the kids. It is so much more fun to play in a clean room!
That brings us to Saturday!
The City Easter Egg Hunt.
We woke and hurried around to getting dressed and eating breakfast. Not one of us was in a "good" mood. Sam was mad about last years hunt because he Quote "every year, I never win the big egg" ...Yes, he remembers everything and is SO competitive. LOL
The hunt was so much more fun this year! They had a nice assortment of games with little prizes so everyone felt like a winner!
Here are the kiddos Fishing!
Avelynn bowling (kinda... haha)
Sam Shooting Hoops
Then it was Avelynns turn to hunt some eggs.
She did pretty good for being so nervious. Ended up with Lots of Marshmallows!
She was very proud of herself. Of couse mama was bust with pride for her little blonde girl!
Sam was totally pumped that he was there right beside Jack!!
Sam went after the eggs Fast and Furious style!
And he .............WON THE BIG EGG!
This is the Soccer basket he won for getting the "big" egg!
He could not stop smiling and our cranky day morphed into a Wonderful Happy Day!
