Happy Easter!

There's no sleeping in for this crew. :)

Easter Egg Hunt at the Hawthorne's after Church

Balloon art!  It was a big hit.   Katelyn tried to recreate hers several times after it came undone. 

The big kids were a little over the bunny this year...and Adelyn wouldn't get anywhere near him.

...as in she stayed as far away as possible.

Hunting for eggs in the backyard that they bunny left for them.   The bunny left a note that each kid was to only hunt for eggs of a certain color.

Adelyn's 3rd Birthday Celebration

Mamaw & GrandBob came over to help celebrate Adelyn turning 3. :) We enjoyed some yummy Pucchini's pizza and then some Minnie Mouse cake and ice cream. Adelyn loved opening all of her presents and especially liked Katelyn's early birthday present, a bright pink tutu for dance class. Luckily, Mamaw was able to get her her very own light pink one.

Carving Pumpkins!

All three kids really enjoyed pumpkin carving this year! Brendan did a good bit of his and Katelyn did almost all of her jack o lantern's face! They were interested in the goo, but Mommy did most of the goo removal. ;)

Lego Birthday Party!

After having to postpone his party by a week due to a stomach virus, we were able to have Brendan's Lego Party! His buddy from next door and the boys in his class came over for a couple hours.

I had a lot of fun making stuff for this party. ;) Invitations

All of the games - Guess how many legos in the jar, Lego Relay Spoon race, Lego Pinata, and a Lego marble maze

Lego Goodie Bags - each kid got a rice krispie treat, a Mixel, and some Lego shaped crayons in addition to the candy in the pinata.

Lego Cakes!

Happy 7th Birthday Brendan!

In honor of Brendan's birthday, we got a little bit of snow today, just like the day he was born. :) This kid seriously, loves the snow. He takes a snow shovel to the bus stop every morning he can to scoop up any available snow and make a pile at the bus stop. He still loves trains, but also has really taken to Legos. He is doing amazingly well in his class at Fall Creek and loves anything with numbers. Brendan is definitely still on the small size for his age,still wearing size 5 or 5/6 clothes. He was so excited for his birthday, he had to open presents before going to school. ;)
