Easter

We started off our Easter festivities with Ellie and Greer's school egg hunt. I had high hopes of getting some cute pictures of them before we headed out that morning, but as usual, Greer wasn't having it! This is the best we got...

I got to go see Ellie's class first...
and then Greer's...he figured out what to do pretty quick!

On Friday Ellie had an egg hunt birthday party, and then we came home and dyed some Easter eggs...
We decided to stay in Auburn for Easter weekend so we got to enjoy it with our little family of 5. We woke up bright and early Sunday morning to see what the bunny brought!
Greer was excited about his tractor book and Cars movie...
and Ellie got lots of Ariel stuff and some new sunglasses!
Little "Simsy" even got some good stuff!
We managed to get ourselves together and dressed and made it to church with 15 minutes to spare! After a wonderful service at AUMC we took some pictures outside in front of the church.



Can't believe we managed to get a family picture this decent! 
And after church we headed to lunch and got to see this special guy... 
Ellie was thrilled to see him, but Greer not so much! 
We had a great Easter weekend, but I must admit Rusty and I were completely exhausted by 3:00 Sunday afternoon. I felt like I had run a marathon after being up at the crack of dawn, getting us all ready for church, going to church, going to lunch, seeing the Easter bunny, and then ending with another egg hunt. Greer spent the entire egg hunt running ninety-to-nothing, getting into anything and everything, picking eggs up and just throwing them! This little guy was a complete gem like always...

March Recap

We spent most of March here...
and these two loved it...
as well as this little guy...
 I mean the weather was absolutely gorgeous almost the entire month so we soaked every bit of it up!
 Greer got a little boo boo under his eye while playing in Lollie's car. Poor baby fell out and face-planted onto the gravel. Poppy got him fixed up with some super glue and Neosporin, and it healed like a champ!


 We actually did a lot more work around the lake house than we did play. G enjoyed helping with the work! This is what I love about this boy...he can sit for 30 minutes doing something like this and be perfectly content!
At the end of March we decided it was time to move Greer to a big boy bed, and he has been such a champ! We are so proud of him for doing so well. He is sleeping in Ellie's room in her other twin bed, and both have adjusted extremely well thank goodness.
Now if we can just get this little guy to sleep!
