First Hair Cut!

.....and no, I don't mean for Noah. :) I mean, have you seen his hair lately?


That's right, we finally got Rebekah taken to get her very first hair cut! It was getting a little scraggly and we knew it was just time. Bekah did great and so did the hair stylist! (well...after we made her go back and cut it more! :)

Easter '09

Well, slowly but surely, I am trying to catch ya'll up to speed on our crazy lives lately, for those of you interested. :) Here are a few Easter pics. Jason was off work that day (which was totally unexpected - his schedule just happened to work out that way) so we started the day by going to church, stopping by my sister's house to have brunch (and hunt for eggs and do baskets) and then we went to see J's family in Hillsboro. So fun!

disclaimer: there's a ton of pics so don't say I didn't warn you! :)


anxious about her Easter basket!




we lined the kids up to go outside for the egg hunt...

Jaeden and Bekah did a great job hunting for eggs!
Easter baskets from Nana! She did a great job! There was a little bit of candy, some play jewelry, and even an Elmo Goes Potty coloring book in there! :)
Noah's was just as big as him!


Nana and PawPaw and their grandkids.
In Hillsboro we did the kid's egg hunt in the bluebonnets. All the adults helped.

I wish I had a better camera - we could have had a great family pic! I love bluebonnets! ...and yes, that is a gift bag R is holding. We left our basket at home! :(
Jaden and Rebekah had fun playing and "sharing" their eggs.
Every year we have an adult egg hunt, too! Everyone throws in a few dollars and it all goes into the prize egg! This year there was a twist. And Aunt Debra won without even realizing it at first! :)

We love to ride the four wheeler!

Aunt DeeDee and Kelly's Visit

Jason's Aunt DeeDee and Kelly came to visit us all the way from Pennsylvania! Woohoo! Here is a little glimpse of the fun we had while they were here... I may have more pics... if I find them I'll put them either on here or facebook. :) Anyway, we were able to have the most fun shopping spree for Bekah's birthday. I think Jason and I had more fun than Bekah! haha!









The cool 4 wheeler she got! So fun!



Granna put it together when we went to Mimi's house.




Some of the fun we had at Toys R Us. :)

Birthday Fun

Okay, I realize this post is late, but I have been busy chasing after a crazy two year old and her baby brother(well maybe I'm not chasing after him, but my hands are full at least!

Here are my girl's birthday pics. We waited to open presents at home because it was so crazy and overwhelming for her at the party. Boy did we score some loot! ha! Thank you to everyone who came (with or without gifts!). We love and appreciate all of you! :) P.S. I am terrible with 'thank you' cards!


Oh. My. Word. Look at all the presents!






"Where do I start?!"




Too cool for school...




All the presents unwrapped.
She LOVED all of them. ..especially her Abby Cadabby doll...



She nursed her...




burped her...




and hugged and rocked her...




Here are all the clothes she acquired! Double score! Fun dresses and outfits in a variety of colors. :)



And finally, the dress up clothes we got her.




How cute is she?!
