The Splash Pad

Last weekend I took the kids to the splash pad at Marley Park. They had such a good time! Kate even saw her friend from school, Elizabeth. They had so much fun together. It was such a great afternoon. Connor loves to those water cannons! He could play with those for days!

The Best Gift Ever!




So this year at Christmas Santa brought Connor and Kate a sand and water table. It is so great. The kids go out there and play forever! They love it. Connor still tries to eat it. You would think after the first 10 times he would stop putting it in his mouth, but he still does it. Kate loves to have sand tea parties. She invited all her princess friends and she has so much fun! It is so great to see them play together and having so much fun!

Easter

Okay so I know that I am way behind on my posts, but I am going to attempt to catch up. Things have been so busy that I have not been able to find time to write on our blog. Between work, school, coaching softball, family, and Kate's tball, I am about to fall over! Needless to say things are beginning to wind down around here. The end of the school year is approaching and I can't wait for summer.
This year for Easter we all decided to get together for Easter to color eggs. This year of course we had a new addition, Finley. He didn't color any eggs, but he was as cute as ever! My mom was so nice to allow us to come to her house and color eggs. We had to do it inside because it was raining. The kids had such a good time. It was nice to have the older kids (Brody, Logan, and Carter) to help the younger ones. Connor slept the whole time so that made it really easy. I do love Connor, but those of you who know him know that the eggs would have been all over the floor and the coloring stuff all over his head!

Easter morning the kids got up way too early and saw what the Easter bunny had brought them. I think the Easter bunny went a little overboard this year:) They found all the eggs that the Easter Bunny had left them. Connor surprised me this year. He really loved picking up the eggs. He would fill his basket and then dump them all out and start all over again! And as always, Kate was super excited and so enthusiastic! They had so much fun playing with their new toys.

This year we did something different and we went to Colleen's house for Easter. They had everyone over for a BBQ and had an Easter egg hunt for the kids. They had so much fun. It was a great day with good food and great family!
