Blessed

My girls are so precious.  My husband is so wonderful.  I am so blessed.











Goggy

Ariel likes to preted that she is a doggy.  This is normal - google says it shows a healthy imagination.  And since google has the answer for everything I'm good with what they say :)
She usually just does it at home with a little bit of barking.
The other day though we were eating and she took her plate, put it on the floor, and ate off it with her mouth.

Mother's Day


A daughter is a gift of love.

I love being a mommy to two special little girls!

Easter Part 4 - Another Easter Egg Hunt

The girls got to do a second Easter Egg Hunt at Grammy and Papa's House.
They got a ton of candy!














"Can I have this?"



"I guess I'll have another...and another...and another"


...and another.

Easter Part 3 - Easter Morning



Daddy and his girls


 

Mommy and her girls



Easter Baskets
I explained to the girls that they got presents in their
Easter Baskets as a reminder of the gift Jesus gave us
when he died on the cross for our sins.
I'm not sure it totally sank it, but if I say it year after year,
they will get it.


Daddy even got a treat - he had been wanting some Cadbury Eggs.



Just the movie she has been wanting



Showing off their jewels


They love each other so much!


Easter Part 2 - Dinner/Egg Hunt with James' Family

We had James family over for a Easter/Mother's Day dinner.  It was quite lovely.  We had a ton of delicious food.  After dinner James and Jesse set up an Easter Egg Hunt for the kids.


Ready to find some eggs.


She's got her basket.

All 4 McRae cousins - Siaara, Annabelle, Ariel,, Asher











Ready for a treat after the hard work of finding all those eggs.



Easter Part 1 - Marshmallow Drop

There was a Marshmallow Drop at the airport.  They said they were going to drop
200 pounds of marshmallows.  The kids had to only get 1 marshmallow,
bring it to this other area and they would get a bag of treats.
 The marshmallows being dropped from the helicoptor.
You really can't see the marshmallows in the picture, but there is
a little spot right below the helicoptor.

The mad dash to find a marshmallow.

Success!  James and Annabelle got 4 marshmallows -
1 for each of the girls and they gave away 2.



Excited about her treats.

There were a ton of people there.  We were lucky to get a treat bag because we had heard that there were only 500 treat bags.  Luckily for the girls they have a competitive daddy.  I struggle with being competitive so I am not sure they would have gotten anything if it were just me.
