Petting Zoo!






The kids went crazy here. They got to feed the rabbits, guinea pigs, goats and even walk the dogs!!! They had a blast!!!

The Coolest Turtle Ever!!





We got to touch it, feed it and LJ and Audrey even got to ride it. However, I took the video in the wrong direction so I couldn't post it. This was Kevin's favorite part of the entire zoo!!!

Katie's Week @ Camp






I had the opportunity to join 2 of the youth from our church along with 26 other students from a local church for a week long camp at Eco Park. The camp was beautiful!!! We had a ton of fun. The kids were challenged both physically and spiritually. As you can see I tackled the high ropes course. It was awesome!! It was the biggest adventure ropes course I had ever seen and our leader said we only did 1% of the activities that they have to offer.

Kev's Week On the Range





Kevin had the opportunity to instruct a whole bunch of guys for an entire week on all the fundamentals of shooting. He seemed to of had a good time. There was even one day when they got to fire off a ton of rounds using all different types of guns. The guys learned lots and enjoyed their week long adventure out on the range.

Easter Outfits




LJ is wearing and an outfit Uncle Danny bought him for his birthday and Audrey is sporting a very "pretty" dress that Mom-mom got her. Although, Audrey insisted on wearing it when she pulled it out of the package and everyday afterwards, she was quite upset on Sunday morning when I told her she could finally wear it. (I think I've got a teenage girl on my hands all ready). LJ was upset that I took his morning bottle away for the picture...go figure!

Fun With Easter Eggs





Audrey and LJ sure had a blast dying eggs this year. LJ was REALLY into it. He crashed and smashed the eggs on top of each other and sent splashes of colored water everywhere! However, he didn't like it all that much when the vinegar got in his eyes or in his mouth. It was fun watching them make a mess!

It's my Birthday!!

around the house





We sure do love coloring...it's Audrey's favorite activity, LJ uses the pens as swords and loves to carry them around, and me, well....I just join them. The nice thing about coloring with them is that no matter if I stay in the lines or color the trees pink and yellow Audrey always tell me it's "pretty!" Such a boost to my artistic ego ;-)

LJ turns 1!!






We celebrated LJ's first birthday with a cupcake! Once he finally figured out that it was for eating he sure did enjoy the sweet surprise. He was very weirded out by the candle, attention and the birthday song. It was a nice quiet birthday!
