Spring is here!


It's been quite a month here in Arkansas with snow, tornadoes, and flooding! Just proves if you don't like the weather stick around, it will change! We are safe,and not much affected us except high winds, our gutters blew off the house, and Derek got our little Mazda hatchback stuck in the mud in our side yard. Had to call our friend Jack to come tow us out! It was quite amusing!

Anyhow, Jacob has his first birthday a couple of weekends ago! He's still not walking, but pulls up on everything and will walk if you hold his hands. He has starting stringing sounds together like yee-ya for Lydia and still days Mama and Dada, uh-oh and no. Can you tell what we say all the time???lol..
We just got back from visiting the Sonneborn family in Highland Village, TX. We had such an enjoyable time, we really didn't want to come home. It was a nice relaxing Easter weekend. Of course the Easter Bunny still found us, but we enjoyed some shopping and eating out, the go-kart tracks(that was fun!) and some late night games of Mexican Train. We always enjoy our visits with the Sonneborns.

On the home front here, Kate will probably be starting Pre-K next year, if a space opens up. We have her on 2 waiting lists, so we will see what happens there. We are considering Home-schooling Lydia next year( I can hear some of you gasping!) We thinks it's the best thing for her at this time. It will require me to be a bit more prepared, but there are so many curriculum options out there! At least we have the summer to get down the schedule and the curriculum together.

I have gone over to the dark-side. I am now digi scrapping. Wow, it's so much easier than dragging out all that stuff! I am sharing my very first page with you- it's very simple but to the point. See above :)

I hope this spring is finding you well and we miss you, as always! Come by and visit us sometime!
