Finally, A NEW post!!

Crazy few weeks! Which include some projects that I will post as soon as I get them finished!! I know, I am so full of suspense, right?!?

This past weekend included two tennis matches, one win one loss, not bad.........In the baseball world, that would be a 500 average.........Guess I'll take it...........

Anyway, while I played on Sunday, The hubby took the monkeys to the neighborhood Easter egg hunt..................
Here's Caroline...........She's the neighborhood greeter, new neighborhood resident and one of Emme's VERY close friends!! You can't get any more opposite on their personalities but they are the best little buddies.................................

Can you guess which one dives in head first and which one checks things out first????

Baby William joined in the hunt, as well!!

Since Mommy forgot to go to the cleaners, where the fancy new Easter outfits were, we had a dress from last year (which still fits my little princess) and a makeshift sweater vest for my big boy! Not the best, but still looked cute! Good thing I remembered to pick up the baskets from the monogrammer............................



Here's a great group shot! We are very blessed to be in a great neighborhood that is VERY social!
Look how sweet, the kids are actually getting close to the Easter Bunny...................


AAAhhhhhhhhhhh, even closer to the Easter Bunny...........................


NICE CAROLINE!! Of course she would be the one to goose his "tail"...................When I sit down one day and talk to my future 14 year old and ask her what was she thinking? When she says Caroline made her do it...............I guess I'll have to believe her!! Too funny!

Wonderful times, special memories!

Weekend Recap (LATE) and a special THANK YOU to Daddy!

You know those weekends that you have and then you need another weekend just to recover??
THAT was my weekend..........Now, it had its ups and its downs and I missed alot of time with my babies..........ALOT................So, first let me thank the hubby for stepping in and stepping up and loving ALMOST every second!!

Work was very busy last week and kept me late Thursday night, and started me early Friday morning...............

Friday evening ended at a wonderful funeral visitation.........I say wonderful only because I enjoyed seeing old friends. My friend Tina lost her father to cancer last week.........Gene Lynn Thompson left his family on Sunday, February 28th 2010. He fought a hard battle and although he lost the war, he is living so peaceful and healthy now.......and will no question be walking with God and keeping an eye on his family. My friend Tina is an amazing person.......Not only is she about to be a mother of 3, she has a smile on her face at all times. Probably one of the most positive and uplifting and ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS person I have ever met. Her and her family live in Florida now so visits are few and very far between, but it's a friendship that will never cease.........And for that, I am the blessed one!!

Do you ever wonder what will be said at your funeral? How you will be described by friends and family??? hmmmmm, guess that's a post for another day................

So, I missed tucking my babies in bed again..............

I did manage to sneak in some good snuggle time Saturday morning while the hubby went to play tennis...........brayden got his music on with his "girlfriend" madison and Emme and I did a little shopping at the Dollar Store..........I LOVE that place!!

Once home, we painted and played and napped.............Before I had to speed off to bartend (ok, pour wine into glasses) at my photographer's gallery!!! I love her gallery and she always has the coolest artists displaying their works........Fantastic, if you ever get the chance to go!!

Oh, and if you want to see some adorable pictures of my children??? Just check out her website and her blog!! What? too many plugs?? sorry, I am a sucker for putting my kids pictures up!!

Anyway, Sunday we took the kids to a little train show (instead of church) and then I played some tennis...........6-2 6-0...........That's right, a little butt kickin!

Now for some pics...............

LOOK! A very rare family shot!!

The coolest part of the train show was the display from Legos......SO COOL! The whole entire thing was made from legos, I can't imagine the hours it took to construct this!

GrandDaddy has always had a love of trains, I certainly remember many train boxes stacked around, although I can't actually remember seeing the whole thing put together!!

Too cute...........Thank you, honey, for all of your help this past weekend................
