Party Time

The boys went to a birthday party for one of their classmates last week. 

The Spankys were so excited before the party...all I have to do is mention "juice", and they immediately go nuts.  Someday they are going to figure out I could buy it at the grocery store, and it isn't just for parties :)

Anyway, the party was at the neatest kids gym.   They had a great time swinging like monkeys...

Jumping like kangaroos...

And drinking juice :)

Oh, and having cupcakes...

Carter is such a good sport about eating what I make for him.  He tells every stranger "I am allergic to peanuts, and I have blonde hair". 

Snug as a Bug

Once again, kids are just weird...but they sure know how to make their own fun.

Easter 2010

Thanks to Mimi and Papa, Kyle and I were able to sneak away to Dallas for a couple of nights right before Easter.  We had the best time with old friends, and the boys had lots of great adventures.

First thing Sunday morning they tore into their Easter baskets and started eating candy...

Then it was over to Gigi and Papa's for lunch and more Easter baskets...

I remember the good ol' days when I was a kid, and I got ONE basket with boiled eggs and some candy, and it was greatness. These kids are spoiled. 

Then it was time for the egg hunt.  Davis, you better watch out, Evan is laser focused on the one in your hand.

This year I introduced Kyle and the kids to the Easter tradition of cascarones...because nothing quite says "Christ is risen" like a smack on the head with a confetti filled egg. Next year we will incorporate another age old tradition of the Easter pinata.

More fun Easter goodies from Aunt Jody....OMG they ate so much candy that day!  They have been overwatering my plants with those buckets everyday since :)

Time to run...

And finally, some pictures in the backyard...

Happy Easter, everyone!
