Because Claws

Is the cutest, smartest lizard ever.

This photo is just pretty awesome.

Taken at a birthday party, just being ourselves. :)

Longest, longest week!

I did not make this.  I found it on my fun new Google Chromebook.  Let's see if it works on my blog.

The longest week began with my mom needing surgery, had the positive angle that Brian came here and that she is okay, and I had to give STAAR tests.  I have no voice due to two days of oral administration, but oh well.  Thankful it is done for the near future, anyway.

A Little Bit of Spring Fun

On our way over to Grandma Lois's house for Seder last weekend, we came upon the most amazing field of bluebonnets.  I mean the type of beauty that you very rarely find in Texas.  It took my breath away.  We then went to my mom's house and had a great seder, albeit a few days early.  It was fun!  Andy's parents were there, as well as some very good friends of my mom's.  We all enjoyed it.  My mom made a great dinner.

We went to go see Rio 2.  Matthew was kind of tired, so he wanted a ride into the theater.  He adores his daddy.

Matthew put on Jackson's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles costume.  He was very excited about it, but not too sure how it was part of the celebration. :)
 On Wednesday, we headed over to Steph and Mike's house for an Easter Egg hunt.  They made us another great dinner (it seems that we have been eating a lot!) Meagan and Lexi were thrilled to get to see each other and all of the kids had a blast with the egg hunt.  Andy and Mike had a ton of fun hiding the eggs.  They tried to find the most obscure hiding places ever.  I think it is going to be extra cool when they can hide the eggs in REALLY hard places or do clues or something.

All of the kiddos, minus baby Charlie.  He didn't quite understand what was up yet.  No worries.  He will next year. :)

Project Presentation

Natalie's class had their presentation today for her project.  It was the project I mentioned weeks ago, the one about children with disablilities.  She got all dressed up and Grandma Lois came for the presentation.  Perhaps the biggest achievement is that my mom TEXTED this photo to me!  Impressive. :)
