Easter...

We had such a wonderful Easter this year! Papa Dave, Granny, Nana, Poppy, Nanette, Scott, Bryce, and Elise came to our house for lunch after church!

All dressed up ready to go to church (I accidentally cut Griffin's head off in this pic).
Looking through their Easter baskets...

More Fun!

A few more pictures from the last few weeks...

Can't get enough of these pigtails!!



I was trying to take pictures of her and she climbed into my lap...

Griffin came down from rest time with one of Michael's old jerseys on...
Griffin's school had a big fundraiser called the Boosterthon--Papa Dave came to town to support Griffin and walk the last lap with him!!

Trying to Catch Up....

I have a lot to catch up on, so forgive me for posting so many pictures all at once! Here are some pics of the kids playing on the putting green in our neighborhood one pretty Saturday...


Collier and Daddy
A few weeks ago Griffin had Spring Break, and it was nice to have a week to do whatever we wanted! The five of us went to Chattanooga for a weekend and had SO MUCH FUN!! There is so much to do there! We went for a ride on the Tennessee Valley Railroad, which was super fun for my little train junkies!
Collier climbed up to sit on Anderson's lap..

Collier walked up and down the aisles and thought it was a blast!



We went to lunch at Sugar's BBQ--it's on top of a bluff with a neat view. They have goats out back and we got to feed them our ears of corn after we ate!

The kids ate drumsticks for the first time...

We went by the Chattanooga Choo Choo and the boys loved climbing on the train!

They let us go inside one of the train cars they use as a hotel room!

This was our first time to stay in a hotel together, and it was a lot of fun! Anderson loved having pretend conversations on the phone!

The boys slept cross-wise on a pull-out couch..

I love this picture--my four favorite bedheads!
One day we went the Aquarium!!




After our fun weekend in Chattanooga, my mom drove over and met us, and she and I took the kids to Knoxville to visit my grandmother! The kids had a great time playing in her pond...
One day we took the kids to the Knoxville Zoo--it is so great!!! Here's Collier really enjoying an ice cream cone!

Stopping for a Hush Puppie...

Don't worry--I stopped him before he played with the zebras...
I need one of these at home!!!


One afternoon we went for a walk and the boys ended up having a great time playing in some puddles!! They were soaked, but enjoyed every minute!





Anderson (otherwise known as The Dog Whisperer :) had a great time with Grannybee and Bo! We love you, Grannybee! Thank you for such a great time!!!
