FFF---The EYES Have It

The theme for this Favorite Foto Friday is "The Eyes Have It". This is a fun theme because the EYES are one of the first things I notice when I meet someone...that and their TEETH. But that's another story for another day. I love the eyes of all my boys-all 3 have their daddy's blue eyes as mine are green.
These are the eyes that are so glad to see me every morning!


My most sneaky set of eyes!


Getting better about wanting to see me in the morning. He's definitely a mama's boy!

I know I haven't posted any pictures from this Easter. We did not get a family picture but I did manage to snap a few of my boys before we left for church. Enjoy and have a great weekend!

2008 Easter

He is RISEN! What a wonderful Easter we had. The boys got together with our new neighbors and friends and colored Easter Eggs Friday afternoon while their dads took the afternoon off and went fishing. Everyone had a great time.

We had an egg hunt on Saturday morning. It was a beautiful day. In one yard we hid the plastic with goodies inside and the other had the hard boiled color eggs. We even had a 'silver' and a 'gold' prize egg!



Checking out our loot!

The whole gang. We couldn't have asked for more beautiful weather!

It's FFF---Favorite Foto Friday!

It's my FIRST Favorite Foto Friday and the theme is Easter Memories. Last year we were at my mom's for Easter which coincided with the 3 month photo session of little Matthew. For some reason I don't have a photo of the actual day. Here is a picture of the oldest 2 enjoying some of the eggs they colored right before Easter. They definitely are not in their 'Sunday best' but I love the picture!

surgery

Well...we made it through our second surgery this year. He did good through the procedure and the doctor said there was LOTS of fluid behind his ears. He should hear us better but honestly, I couldn't ask for a better baby. He will be 15 months old tomorrow and is not walking. Any advice on that? We have a check up so I will be sure to voice my concerns.

sea world

So the Flu hit our family back in February. We were officially diagnosed on February 14 to be exact. I was so glad that I had already made our special dinner the previous night. We started Tami flu that night and by Saturday afternoon he finally had enough energy to go outside. I suggested lets go to Florida like we had originally planned before we were hit with the flu....only the trip won't be as long. So we were packed, the house cleaned and disinfected, and pulled out of the driveway around 5PM. We ended up at Sea World and not at Disney like originally planned before getting sick. We shopped a day too which was nice!

What are we waiting on?

You know...the whale

Oh....Okay! It's.....

BABY shamu!!

And of course...SHAMU, himself...


Thanks pawpaw for warning us where to/not to sit!

Riding a ride!

And another...

My first carousel ride

Hey...look what we found!?!

Other updates...our baby will be having tubes put in March 18, maybe earlier. Have a Happy and Blessed Monday!

Kleenex tissue box

Good Morning! Not much to say, just wanted to share a collage that I put together for a personalized Kleenex tissue box. Go here to make your own!

Pictures of our winter break trip coming soon!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

We had to 'make do' with our Valentine's day celebrations this year. The FLU hit our home and luckily only Conner had it. I decided to try some new recipes from the Pioneer Woman for our Valentine's dinner. I cooked it last night (on the 13th). Go to her website to see for yourself. I am pleased with the results I had. I have also made her lasagna, sandwiches, olive bread (a hit at Bunco night), dips, casseroles, etc. I love her pictures she posts with her recipes as I love visuals when learning something new!
