Treat Yourself

We went and tried out this new place called "Treat Yourself", it is a frozen yogurt place that has literally every single topping a person could dream of! Yummy! There are 8 different flavors of yogurt and then every topping you can think of from chocolate rocks to Nutella syrup!



Both of the girls were very into all of the toppings. Betsey wanted about 6 different kinds all in some sort of shade of pink. While Ellasyn only had eyes for the skittles. Little did she know that the frozen yogurt would make the skittles hard once they were on top of it.




Look there is a little "orange hair" boy in the background. He and Betsey match. Ever since I got my hair highlighted Ellasyn is very into saying "You have yewwow (yellow) hair like me but not orange hair like Betsey" Just so you know we don't call Betsey's hair orange, she calls it orange.

This look is like "please Mom can't I just eat this in peace without you taking a picture of everything I do!"

Nothing like some "bug eyes" on our Betsey Bug! Or if one of my former students were to see her like this I am sure that they would call her "Sponge Bob eyes" just like they used to call me. What my eyes get BIG when I get mad, who knew!

Loving some Spring weather

We have been loving being able to be outside! Granted it went from the 50's to the 90's in a matter of days but now it has settled into the 70's and has been just perfect the last couple of days. I must admit that I was a little nervous when we had our heat wave of 90 degree weather, I just didn't think that I would be able to make it from now to October with that kind of heat!


We have been taking walks around our neighborhood, taking the baby dolls out and about in their strollers, riding bikes and having every possible toy with wheels out in the driveway! Seriously last night the driveway looked like a toy store with scooters, bicycles, tricycles, Barbie cars and what not scattered all over it. I don't think that they could decide what they wanted to do.




We have also been frequenting the "big" Ross Bridge park and then our "little" park across the street. It has been great and it seems like every time we make it over to the 'big" park we run into some of our friends making it a great time for Betsey and Ellasyn and for me.

Here is to hoping that we have at least another week or two of this wonderful weather! Now if only we could get some of this pollen to go away. I declare everything is yellow! Rain, Rain come at night make the pollen go away!

Easter

We had a wonderful Easter! It only took us 3 hours to get ready to make it to church but you know, we made it with time to spare. Which is something that does not always happen! Our service was awesome and I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED all of the singing! I could sing "Up from the Grave He Arose" all the time! Love it!

The best picture we got of all of us and the lighting is TERRIBLE!
Love this picture of the girls with Mimi. Not bad for an 88 year young lady, huh?

Easter Egg Hunts












We had a whirlwind Saturday. It went by so fast but was so much fun! We started out the day at our neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt. Which after days of magnificent weather we woke up to rain.:( It only put a little damper on things, we still got to meet the Easter bunny, make a build a bear bunny, go on a train ride and hunt for eggs. The only thing that we didn't get to do was enjoy the inflatables. After this Betsey had practice for Alice and Wonderland and then we headed out to Peggy and Jerry's for another Easter Egg Hunt. The girls had so much fun playign with their cousins. They were both out of it before we even made it off of Peggy and Jerry's road! Love days like this especially since the sun came out and it was a beautiful afternoon.
