Kendall's Kindergarten Play and Spring Fling

Kendall had a kindergarten program in honor of Mother Goose's Nursery Rhymes. Her class sang Humpty Dumpty and they did so good! Kendall even had a special part as the spoon! Later that afternoon, Carver hosted their annual Spring Fling with dinner, games, and activities. Kendall and Sam had a great time!

Mother's Day Weekend

Mother's Day weekend was spent in Clarksdale having a work weekend at Mimi's house! Chet and Mark got Mimi's fence built in her back yard and finished her bathroom! We were excited to get 2 projects completed! We cooked and ate at Karen's house on Sunday (mother's day) and enjoyed some good family time! We are so thankful for the mothers in our lives and they way that they have shaped us and influenced us!

The kids had special events for Mother's Day at school, so I was thankful to be able to attend those for each of them.

Great Wolf Lodge Vacation

This year, Mimi and I took the kids to Grapevine, Texas to the Great Wolf Lodge. Daddy was away on a week long golf trip, and I had an Advocare meeting in Dallas, so we thought this was the perfect opportunity to have a little vacation trip as well! The kids had a blast!! The GWL is an indoor water park with a wave pool, slides, hot tubs, splash pad, etc. They also have tons of kid activities, such as an arcade, story time, games, and lots of other things to spend your money on! Needless to say, the kids had a blast and can't wait to go back. I actually hiked the steps several times with Kendall to ride the big tube slides. I was 30 weeks pregnant, and people looked at me like I was crazy, but we had so much fun on the slides! Even Sam got brave and rode the smaller slides! I hope that one day we can go back and bring daddy along!!

Here are these 2 precious kiddos loving the kiddie area!

I treated these 2 to some ice cream at Baskin Robbins! They always love it when mama has a craving for some rocky road ice cream!!

Easter 2015

We spent Easter weekend here in Tupelo. We went to the church Easter Egg hunt on Saturday, where the kids had a ball with all of the activities. My camera was messed up so I didn't have any pictures from that. Then on Easter Sunday, we went to church and lunch and came home to enjoy the afternoon with the new fishing poles that the Easter bunny had brought the kids! It was such a great weekend with just our family. We were able to really talk with the kids about why we celebrate Easter and the risen Christ! We are so thankful for our freedom in Christ! 

Gifts from the bunny!

Easter Sunday actually fell on April 5, which was Kendall's anniversary of her Infant Baptism at church. We got out her candle, lit it and told her the story of her Baptism and the meaning of it all. We watched her video of her baptism as well. It was a special night because this is the first time I think she was old enough to understand God's love for her--and how great it was that it fell on Easter Sunday which makes it even more significant! We will continue to tell her the story each year until she can come to the decision herself to accept Christ as her Lord and Savior! What a special moment and responsibility that we have as parents!!
