Easter Bunny

Friday, after school, we went to go see the Easter bunny!!  Van was very excited but Max (from the beginning of talking about going to see him) said he was scary.  As soon as it was our turn, Van went straight to sit with him and say hi.  Max, started screamed and clawing at me!!  He was not about to let me put him down!!  So, the whole family took a picture with the Easter bunny.  After the picture the Easter bunny gave Max a candy egg and then Max was OK with him.  That proves it…my children can be bought with candy!!  Happy Easter!!!

Cardinals

Van started another season on t-ball on Saturday.  He is very excited about his new team.  On Thursday, he had practice and he got his new jersey.  He was so excited, he wore the jersey to bed.  Then he wanted to wear it to school to show his friends.  Friday night he wanted to wear it to bed again, but I made him take it off to wash it before Saturday’s game….nobody wants a stinky baseball player around them!!!  His team is made up of bigger kids this year which means that Van will have more players to look up to and learn from.  His coaches seem very nice and very helpful.  He is very excited to be a Cardinal!!  Pictures will come later….my camera did not have a memory card and the pictures that I did take on my phone are horrible…Sorry!!!

  • Spring Break

    I’m learning (slowly, but surely) that I can plan anyway that I want to….but God laughs at my plans!!!  I had a FULL spring break planned.  There was something planned for every day!!  Everything from big things like going to the zoo and going camping,  to little things like going to fly kites and picnics in the park.  Unfortunately, VERY LITTLE of that happened!!!  Max developed yet another ear infection (poor guy!!) so we spent the day at the doctor’s office.  Since he had the ear infection, swimming was out and the zoo was out due to the high winds.  Then the rain came in so the camping trip was canceled.  However,we did make it to the park to fly kites and have a picnic.  Van loved the kites, but Max was more excited about playing on the swings.  Since our Spring Break plans were all put on hold, Papi took us to the Dallas Stars hockey game.  We LOVE the Dallas Stars and ice hockey.  To our surprise, the kids all received mini hockey sticks at the door and free T-shirts.  The shirts were an adult medium, but the boys don’t care….they LOVE them and have been playing hockey in the living room ever since.  It was a GREAT end to a wonderful Spring Break!!!
