A Very Hoppy Easter!

Well, another great Easter has come and gone, and what a beautiful one it was, too. I hope you all had as awesome a day as we did. It was especially cool since the little man was able to hunt eggs for the VERY FIRST time! Can you believe that last year at this time he wasn't even walking yet? Now he runs everywhere he goes! And run he did...from egg to egg to egg. It was too cute. It took a couple of "practice finds" with help from his daddy to get the routine down, but pretty soon he was hunting all by himself. He even found one that Larr had forgotten about! I think his favorite part of the day, though, was getting to eat the candy that was inside the eggs. He does love the sugar!

gone fishin'

Last Sunday we went out to my Grandad's for some fishing and a weenie roast. And it was so much fun! The fish were biting pretty well, too. I think everyone caught (or nearly caught in my case...the fish were seriously hatin' on me) at least one. Larr had three really good ones, and my new cousin, Bailey, caught a HUGE bass!! She's only 10, so it pretty much made her day. Later we built a fire under a great shade tree and had hot dogs, chips, beans, and my favorite--smores! I think the award for "Most Fun Had in a Single Day" goes to Aidan, though. He and I shared a fishin' pole, he rode 4-wheelers with his Papa and gathered wood for the fire. And I'm pretty sure he ate more hot dogs and smores than I did. By the end of the day he was covered in dirt, smelled like a cow pattie, and was completely worn out. It was awesome.
