Easter Top Ten...

 ...in no particular order!

10.  Dudley's Spin an Egg - made super easy, super fun, super pretty Easter eggs!

9.  Me: I love you, William.
     William: Too, Mommy.
     Melts. My. Heart.  I don't think there's a sweeter little boy on the planet.

8.  Maggie teetee'd on the potty!  (I'm pretty sure it was a fluke, but it still counts!!)


7.  Lucy!  Thanks, Py, for loaning us a bunny for the weekend - She was a HUGE hit.  Kirby is in love.  Bless Lucy's heart, though, those kids were rough on her.  William picked her up by her ears, and Mags grabbed her by her fur, picked her up and dropped her.  I'm sure Ole Lucy (aka Lucifer, FooFoo, & Bunny Snuggles) is glad our crew is back in Houston!








6.  Amazing Easter service at St. Martin's.  The services throughout Lent were incredible, too.

5.  The Big Kid egg hunt.  It was cut throat - with ~$300 at stake, it was an all out war.  I'm sick we lost some of the pictures, because they were hysterical.  This was so serious that I sported capris and running shoes so that I wouldn't be at a disadvantage in flip flops.  It was worth it, because I walked away with $75 and a golden egg!!  What, you ask, was in the golden egg?  Dog poop.  My momma is soooooo funny.




4.  Cookie decorating with Aunty Kathy, Gretchen, & Tessa!



3.  Rain boots for William.  This kid LOVES shoes - so much so that he sleeps in them regularly.  These "patos" (zapatos) were just about more that he could stand.

 2.  Little Kid egg hunts - much more tame, but fun none the less!  Maggie carried her basket around like a purse, and Kirby only went for the purple ones, because, "purple is [her] favorite color, of course."

1.  Cruising!  While Kirbs was sacked out on the couch, we launched Maggie and William up and down the driveway.  William held on for dear life, and Mags threw her hands up and squealed.  So fun.

Mags is soooo Mart!!

Maggie is so proud of her counting skills, and so are we!  "7" is my new favorite number!!

It's a bird...it's a plane...

...it's Jim!

He went skydiving on Saturday and loved every minute of it - he's already signed up to do it again!
