She has a little growing to do, hopefully she will catch up!!

Easter 2009

Let me start this post by saying thank you to all those avid readers of our blog who so kindly remind me frequently that I need to do some updating!! :) I am so far behind, so I thought I would start back with Easter. It was such a fun weekend, I couldn't resist posting our favorite moments. I also need to state that I don't have pictures of Teta and Gueddo because all of those pictures are on Teta's camera, so Teta, if you can email those to me, I will add them to the blog. Both sets of grandparents are important to us and our children!! Both of you were here to celebrate this special day with us!!
For Easter, my mom carried on my Memaw's tradition of dying Easter eggs with the kids. My Memaw used to dye eggs with us every year in Newby...it is something that was special to me growing up and I would love that tradition to carry on. However, maybe we need to wait a few years before we try it again. Starting off things went okay....Hudson put the little tabs in the cups and then dropped in the eggs. But when it was time to take them out, he didn't want help and when Nana tried to help, the blue dye went all over the patio, Hudson, & Nana.
My Little Smurf!!! The dye stayed on his leg until the next day when I scrubbed it with a towel in the tub the next morning.


This is what we had to put on to finish our Easter eggs dying.....again, I think we will wait a few years before we try this again!!


Ella & Papa


Nana & Hudson

Just chillin' in the wagon.


Friday night, Teta and Gueddo came in town and we went to dinner and spent time at the house just playing...Teta and Gueddo hadn't seen the kids since Christmas (way too long!!) Saturday morning we spent some time shopping at the mall...again, always fun with 2 small children. Saturday afternoon Eisie held her 1st Annual Eisenhour Easter Egg Extravaganza!!! I think there we 18 kids there with all their parents and some grandparents!! In all I think there were over 50 people there!! It was so much fun!! We can't wait to hunt eggs again next year!!
Ready, Set, Hunt Eggs!!


Ella would just open the eggs and eat the goldfish.

Hudson was running all over to get the eggs!!

Enjoying some cupcakes and popcorn!!

Dylan & Kate having fun!!

Little Bunny Emory and her daddy....too cute!!
Hudson, JD, and Dylan flyin' high!!
After the Egg Hunt, we went to dinner with both sets of grandparents. Sunday everyone met for church at FBCE and enjoy a yummy lunch at Nana & Papa's house. We were sad to see Teta and Gueddo leave after lunch, we we know we will see them in a few weeks for Mother's Day!!


HAPPY EASTER!!!

Too Cute for Words!!




Happy Birthday KATE!!!

Our sweet friend Kate celebrated her 3rd birthday with a princess/superhero party at Leapin' Lizards. We had a ton of fun!! Eisie made Dylan & Hudson super hero capes with their initial on the back....too cool!!
Here is the birthday girl!! Leapin' Around!!

They really have grown up (Hudson use to stay at Kate's house when he was just a little guy-8 months old- he wasn't even walking, and now look at them)


Playing on the slides!!


Here are the Princesses and Super Heroes!!



HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATE!!! We look forward to sharing many more with you!!!



The BIG 3-0!!!

For my 30th birthday, I celebrated all weekend!! I won't go into a lot of detail since it was a few weeks ago!! Friday night, I did a girls night out (we invited the boys to dinner). We even had a visit from the SL police department for being too loud in our hotel room, but we had a great time. I did forget my camera for the evening....so girls, if you have any pics from the evening, let me know!!
Saturday, mom and I did our usual spa and shopping....so much fun!! Saturday evening, we got a babysitter and the fam went to dinner at Silver Fox. I had never been there....it was really great!! We went back to our house for dessert where Uncle Ron & Huddy enjoyed a fun game of 'ball'.
The fam at dinner.Dad got me my FAV Red Oven Red Velvet cake...note the BU colors!!Uncle Ron & Huddy playing!!






Bike Rides

Since so many of our friend live close now, we can take bike/wagon rides to visit them. Sadly, mommy didn't plan well and call ahead. No one was home when we did our surprise visit. But mommy and Eisie got some good exercise in!!
Gettin' ready to go....Hudson being silly!!Dylan having fun!!

Precious Derek!!


Ella really enjoyed it :)
