WOW- how time has flown. I will totally admit I miss having babies, I really love babies. But big kids are just SO FUN!!!

Walker loves:
- Phineas and Ferb, Wipeout, Spongebob, Harry Potter movies and superheroes shows/movies

- dinosaurs and cars (that is something that hasn't changed), drawing and making pictures, helping me cook in the kitchen, anything active, errands with family, eating out with family

- he loves to sing and learns words to songs really fast. He likes George Strait and Tim McGraw- Texas, Heartland, Last Dollar (Fly Away) and I Like It, I Love It are his favorite songs.

- he is very close with Lucy, and they still play great together. He will go sleep in her bed sometimes when he gets scared. They talk about getting married together- but they know that God has picked out someone else for them, that is not in their family. They pretend anyway.

- deviled eggs (called doubled eggs), Diet Coke, mac n cheese, McDonald's, water, fruity candy (Starburst, Skittles, fruit snacks, gummy bears), salad, and Chicken Salad sandwiches from Chik-Fil-A.

This morning, waking up to us singing Happy Birthday to him and his special requested birthday breakfast: waffles, maple bacon, scrambled eggs, orange juice and water
At lunch, with the whole restaurant singing Happy Birthday. He was thrilled!!
At the Ballard family b-day dinner, finding his present using the clues Papa left for him. So fun!
He found it!!!!

Fun Family Weekend

Jason was off Saturday, and I was really looking forward to a family weekend. He usually works Saturdays, but when he is off and we get 2 days in a row all together, we are so happy!! Friday night he called on his way home from work, and told the kids to get dressed in their cowboy boots, we were going somewhere. The kids got so excited, and ran to their rooms. Lucy got some new cowgirl boots for Christmas (2 pairs, actually), and has been wearing them alot!! They got all dressed up in their cowboy stuff and we waited for Daddy to get home. He took us to Trail Dust Steakhouse in Arlington, and he invited my sisters, too. It was so fun!! I hadn't been there since my 16th birthday party, and the kids had a blast; sliding down the slide, dancing on the dance floor and eating yummy steak. It was such a fun night!!! If you wear a tie, they cut it off and put it on their wall!! He wore an old tie on purpose The weekend just kept getting better!! Yesterday, Jason and I had a great date ni...

Well, you find things like this in your backyard: There are lots of fun things about living "out" here and having more than an acre of land to explore. We have roadrunners, roosters, chickens, lizards (apparently!), bonfires, and lots of fun. The kids were so intrigued. They have really developed a love for animals and outdoors A close up of our friend

Happy Spring Break to Walker and Lucy!!

This week Walker and Lucy are off from ARK School. They are actually NOT excited, they love school!! Caitlin is home this week, too, though so that is fun. We had a great weekend to end my break and kick off the kids. Saturday , we drove to a drive-in theater in Granbury. Colleen (my friend and Walker's teacher) told us about this drive-in and it was showing Horton Hears a Who!, so we decided to check it out. I am so glad there is still one around. Drive-ins are just one of those things I have great memories of and want to do with my kids. At the drive-in, with a good spot. Being comfy in our jim jammers!! Enjoying our picnic dinner. Fruit skewers, pb&j roll-ups, and cheetos!! Sunday , we had a great family lunch at mom's, then it was off to the TCU Easter Egg Hunt. The kids looked so cute, and had fun hunting eggs. However, they could not be persuaded to take pictures with the Easter Bunny or Super Frog. Oh, well. Lucy, looking around for some eggs Showing off his loot! My...
