LOTS of Mulch!

 Time for new flowers and new mulch!  When I was a kid I remember waking up some morning literally smelling the mulch that was delivered through my window knowing we would be spending the whole day moving the "mountain" to the backyard.  Funny how when I was little that "mountain" seemed SO SO BIG!  We got our own pile of mulch delivered and some new flowers. This year the kids are at an age where they love to "help" and think its so much fun... They both loved getting dirty...






 Karoline worked hard but was finished after about 2 hours (still a LONG time!)...
 Anderson kept working and was so cute I brought out the "big" camera!  







 
















 LOTS of work... but the yard looks great!  Thankful for all the help Karoline and Anderson!

Spring Break Recap Via Instagram!


Spring Break (for the kids not me, which brought on a new set of challenges) was after Easter and it was fun filled but we were down for the count one day...  We started with some Easter baseball at the Pelicans Stadium.  Anderson and Karoline were very excited to be back at the ball field!  Anderson takes his baseball very seriously!  Tammie and Beth had a good time too. 

  Special fireworks show after the game...

Monday I had class and TJ went to Monday After the Masters, we hung out some, went to dinner with Tammie and Beth before they headed to see Darius Ruckers at the House of Blues.  Tuesday we headed to the beach... it was the ONLY good beach day. It was quite cold the rest of the week!  We ran into our friends!!  So much fun with the Colquett's and Kelly's!


We went back to Tammie's condo but first grabbed Chick-fil-a!  It was Beth's first time EVER eating Chick-fil-a!  That's plane craziness!! She also had Cracker Barrel for the first time this week too! The pool water was FREEZING but the kids got in and loved the lazy river (like always).


Wednesday was rough.  I had class and turned in a test then the rest of the day was spent on the sofa blowing my nose and teaching Anderson to blow his!!  We felt horrible!!  It was NOT FUN!

Feeling a little better, Karoline and I took Tammie and Beth to meet TJ for lunch and to ride the Sky Wheel!  We have been waiting to go and it was a PERFECT day!  


 Friday after I took a Psychology test I took Beth and Tammie to my favorite Sushi place then we hit the outlet malls... I found these and LOVE them!!  So comfy on my feet and just like Toms but less!  WIN!

Friday night TJ and I took Tammie and Beth to Murrells Inlet to get yummy seafood!  It was wonderful!  Very VERY good!  I love Murrells Inlet!
TJ's giant dinner :)

Our friend Andrew is a local weather man and likes to "steal" my pictures for his news casts :)  Our Spring Break was well documented on TV as well! 

 Friday at the park with daddy while I took a test...

 Spring break made us SUPER excited about summer... Only a few more weeks!!

Easter Sunday!!


 Easter is my favorite holiday and this Easter was very special!  We were excited to have Tammie and Beth in town from San Francisco.  Tammie comes every year and this year Beth came along.  Beth use to be our family hair stylist in San Fran. We LOVE her to pieces and it was so fun seeing her.  Mom made a very special and YUMMY Easter lunch.  We got to hang out on their newly expanded screen porch and relax after a BUSY day at church.  I'm going to do a separate post about whats going on at church!)...

Thankful for such a great day reflecting on the ultimate sacrifice and celebrating that HE IS RISEN!  Praise the LORD! 





We like to be SILLY too!




 Beth and Tammie




 More SILLY!
