Bluebonnets!

 On the way back to Dallas, we made a spontaneous stop near Ennis to take pictures of the girls in the bluebonnets!  They were gorgeous, and I can't wait to take them there again next year!








Shriners Circus

 MaMa gave us tickets to the Shriners circus, and it was a show!  The girls had a blast watching all of the entertainment, as did the adults!
 Emily was so excited to ride the pony!  We didn't get her a ticket to ride the elephant initially because we figured she would be too scared of it, but she wanted to ride it too!
 Sarah enjoyed the pony ride too, but she liked getting her face painted even more!
 The girls and Aunt Rachel riding "Tiny" the elephant.

Houston Museum of Natural Science

 We had a wonderful time at the Museum with Papou!

 Cute girls!

 Uncle Andy being silly!




 While in Houston, I went to visit Grandma too.  It was so good to see her!!  She's doing great for being 93!

Caught You!

 Emily really enjoys putting on shoes these days!  This time, we found her successfully walking around the house in my shoes.  She's really grown a lot in the past month or so, and we are realizing more and more each day how much different she is from Sarah.  Emily is quite adventurous and inquisitive to say the least!  She's also talking a bunch, and I guess I can't call her a baby anymore...
We've also gotten to the point where Emily will sit with Sarah and watch a show in our bed in the mornings.  She used to just last five minutes or so, but now they sit together and watch it; pretty cute!

Sarah's School Open House

I'm not sure why the pictures wouldn't go in the order I had them in, but I am too tired of trying to make it work, and I don't want to start all over, so bare with me!
 Emily loves to swing!
 I find Emily in the silliest places these days!  About a month or so ago, she really started getting into EVERYTHING and tries to climb on, over ANYTHING!  Fun times...
 Our little cowgirl found her Daddy's boots, and she decided to strike a pose!

 Sarah and Erin wore the same color at Open House!  This is one of Sarah's best friends in her class.
 It was a beach theme, and here are a few pictures of Sarah's classroom.  The kids and her teachers worked so hard, and they did a wonderful job!  Major high fives to those teachers!!





 This was the second Open House, and this time I just teared up multiple times, and I think tears fell down once.  That was a lot better than last year when I started crying right at the beginning as random kids started walking down the aisle!  It was such a cute performance, and Sarah had a blast.  This time, she saw us in the crowd, so she knew to look at us for picture opportunities!  So cute!

Easter in Houston

 We celebrated Easter at PaPa's on Saturday.  We attempted this picture of all of the grand kids RIGHT AFTER the egg hunt...they were a lot more interested in seeing what was in their baskets!  
 Emily was too concerned about what was in the eggs to look for the picture.
 Sweet girl!
 Each time Emily found an egg, she would open it up right there; she'll be better at this whole "egg hunt" next year!

 Emily LOVED the trampoline!  She would go around in circles over and over again!

 She didn't even mind when big sister made her fall every time she jumped!
 These girls love each other so much!
 Ever since returning from Disney World, Sarah likes to do what the princesses do to their dresses!
 She had to have her baby!
 We celebrated Easter Sunday at MaMa's house.  We barely got the egg hunt in before the big rain.  It was pretty windy, and we probably had the quickest egg hunt I've ever seen.

 I told you it was windy!
