So why in the heck is it so windy??? We have been living with some of the most awful wind for the last few days. I don't think it would be so cold if the wind wasn't blowing so hard. When I am in the master bathroom at our house, it sounds like the back of the house is going to come off at any minute!!! Yesterday we were laying around being lazy (everyone but me was taking a nap) and the umbrella that goes with the kids picnic table came out of the center hole in the table, was blowing against the back door and eventually went over the fence. YUCK!!!!
Yesterday was the Easter Egg hunt at our wonderful church. They have different areas for different age groups; I don't know about the other areas, but the area where Garrett and Isabel were looked like it had rained bright colored eggs!!! Garrett was so cute....he walked out the door, his eyes were wide and he squealed, "EGGS!!" It was the cutest thing!!! It amazes me everyday to see what he is picking up on. He says things that we say...last night Joel told Riley (our dog, for those of you that don't know) that he was bugging. The next thing we know Garrett starts saying bugging. I guess we better be careful what we say. Isabel did great during the egg hunt also. She walked while holding my hand and smiled the whole time. She didn't care about picking up eggs, she just wanted to hold on to her basket!!
Yep, you heard right...Isabel walked around while holding my hand!!! She has started taking a number of steps by herself. If we aren't watching her, she tends to walk further and take more steps. After she walks and then falls on her bottom, she looks up to see who was watching her and smiles the most precious smile. What is it about a child's smile that can make a mom's heart melt? That is one thing these two beautiful children have done to me!!! I melt just watching them, listening to them, talking to them... It doesn't matter what they are doing, I think they are the most precious, gorgeous thing I have ever laid eyes on!!!!
A shout out to Kevin, Mandy, Emma and Hannah...I am so glad you made it safely to Tennessee!! We missed you at the Easter Egg Hunt!!! Keep posting...that is how I am going to be able to follow you until we meet again!!! Love you guys!!!
I will try to get some pictures posted tonight!!!
