Dad and son conversation

Chase, "daddy will you still be on the radio when you are granddads age?". Ched, "I don't know son".
Chase, "Please daddy please?!!"
Ched, "well maybe"
Chase, "yes! Yes!! Yes!! Because when I'm your age, I'm gonna be a basketball player, and you can talk about me!"

Dyeing eggs

Monday night we got to dye eggs with some friends. It was so much fun. My kids had a blast without me helping at all. Chase had 2 finished in 2 sec. Cami enjoyed moving her egg around in the dye. Izzy took her time and decorated hers perfectly. I was so impressed with their eggs. Cami drew a picture of me on an egg. Chase wrote his name with crayon and marker. And then they also added some stickers. We used the Razorback room at Jim's Razorback in Prairie Grove. Celesta took on the decorating and it was amazing. She also brought the eggs! I decided to try dyeing the eggs using kool aid. I got the idea from pinterest. It smelled good enough to drink.... However no sugar and only 2/3 cup of water plus all the kids fingers, no way . We also had markers, rubber bands, watercolor paint and stickers. We ate pizza and Becky brought great brownies and rice crispy treats! We had 17 people there. It was a great Family Fun Night.

Cami is writing!?

Today we were outside and I wrote her name in chalk and ask her if she could tell me the letters. She did so I asked her if she could write her name and this is what she wrote!

Chase's scooter, spring break, and tball

Chase loves his electric scooter. He also needs a haircut! First day of spring break! Perfect weather. I told them we were going outside. So if they are sunburned tomorrow everyone will know why- mean mom would not let them go inside.

Chase had his first t-ball practice of the year this morning. Ched is coaching and I am evidently organizing. So I guess I am the "baseball mom" instead of soccer mom. Emails, excel docs, attachments, phone calls, researching baseball uniforms can now all be added to my resume under t-ball coordinator???

Also under that hair is an incredibly large egg on his forehead. He was standing on top of the dog house that had not been completely put together and fell onto the concrete.

Cami's four wheeler

Cami has had this since she was 1 and is just now discovering how fun it is. Can't believe it still works after not being plugged in for so long. Momma Nel and Papa Tom gave her this for Christmas.

Chase Rise and Shine

If you found a four leaf clover, what would you wish for? Chase would wish for something yummy according to him. He is to the right of the screen. Watch what he does after his part in the showcase! Too adorable.

Happy Valentine Day

This is Chase's card to Ched and I. He drew a picture of two dogs for Ched, a flower and a balloon for me! He also made a place mat which is adorable. I have Izzy's just like this.

Valentines day

Today is our 15th Valentine's day together. On our first Valentine's day, Ched sent me roses. The roses were all white and there was only a single red one. The card said, "If all the world were flowers their beauty would pale in comparison to yours." Today, I got all white roses and one red one and the card said, "it still does!". How great of a husband do I have!!?! I am so blessed to have been given Ched to spend the rest of my life with.
