OH HAIL!!!!


We had a huge hail storm move through on Friday afternoon. The storm itself lasted only about 10 to 15 minutes but we collected quite a few huge hail stones or snowballs as Cameron called them. The cars on our street parked outside took a good beating. Here are a few of the big ones compared to an apple. WOW!!!!

Easter Eggs





It was a cold Easter this year. Just the day before there were snow flurries falling from the sky. So cold that the Easter bunny had to hide all of the eggs in side so he wouldn't freeze his little "eggs" off. The idea of hunting this year was all about the candy inside the eggs. I guess that is how it will be from now on. She had to take several breaks from the hunting to sample the jellybeans in a few of her found eggs. Then we all hopped off to a packed house at church.

"Egg"citing Sunday





My wonderful principal hosted an Easter egg hunt for all the staff member's kids Sunday at her church. The P.E. coach, Britt, dressed up as the Easter bunny and hopped around like a crazy woman much to the delight of most of the children. There were a few tykes that would rather have been left in the car to roast in the heat than have to sit on the bunny's lap for a picture. However, their parents did manage to get a few priceless shots. Our little Cameron loved the bunny and spent a good bit of her time directing others to go sit with him. The kids found all the eggs and then enjoyed opening them up to find neat little prizes. We topped off the afternoon with a cupcake and were sent on our merry way to deal with our sugar-overdosed kids. Thanks Liz! It was an awesome day!

Party Girl



We were invited to our friend Powell's second birthday party over the weekend. The kids enjoyed the cake and icecream. But, they especially loved beating apart a poor little horse that was hung by its neck. It was a pinata for all of my dear readers that fear we were just letting our children be cruel to defenseless animals.

Safety First




Cameron is a safety girl. On our most recent visit to Cabella's she insisted upon wearing her soon-to-be new life jacket throughout the store. She is such a character. I wonder where she comes up with all the nonsense. Anyway, back to the story. She showed Papa and Memaw all the great fish and had a blast exploring the tent displays. She also did her best impressions of all the animals.
