April

The kids love playing outside!  One of their favorite things to do in April was to find as many snails as they could and "race" them.  Here they are gathering snails.  I was stalking them from the kitchen window.  And wow.  The boys really need haircuts!

Here is Luke "racing" one of his snails.  Can you see it on the slide between his legs?

One Sunday afternoon I sent the boys outside because they were going crazy inside.  I told them to stay out of the pool.  So what do they do?

Shoes and all!!!  My kids have been really scared of the rooster (Boastus) because he will chase them and try to get them.  Today they were brave and chased the chickens around throwing water at them.  This I believe was the beginning of their terrorizing the chickens.  Now I feel sorry for the chickens.

Here is Brek Easter egg hunting at her class party in the park.

And here is Tyce showing me that he has no eggs.  Poor boy.  He was so excited to hunt eggs, but I kept trying to tell him that it was just for Brek's class.

Here is Brek's class.  Brek was upset that she didn't get very many eggs so she was not being very cooperative for the picture.

One Saturday I got a phone call from my friend Charmayne inviting us to an Easter party.  I told her I wasn't feeling well but that we would love to go if I got to feeling better.  Maybe Brock and the kids could go.  Later Brock kept bugging me saying we needed to go and that I probably just needed to get up and I would feel better.  So I got ready and we went in for the party.  It was a surprise baby shower for me!  So sweet!  So Brock took the kids back to Sabinal to go to an Easter egg hunt in the park.  Here they are with their friend Trey.

The hunt was sponsored by a local church so here are the kids listening to the sermon before the hunt.
