Ian's friends...

My mother-in-law gave us this garden statue and Ian is so funny with the kids and goes up to them and kisses them and points at their book and talks with them and will sit on the end of the bench with them. It's so funny.

Easter Lilly's

So my Easter Lilly's never bloom in time for Easter, more like Mother's Day but nonetheless they are beautiful when they do come out. I got one from my sister and one from my mother-in-law when we moved into our house 7 years ago and they just multiply and go forever. I tried to get a picture of the boys but they were more interested in bugs...boys will be boys.

Brother's In Action...

Grandma and Papa Visit

Grandma and Papa Neil came to visit for the weekend and hoped to get in a baseball game and see all the other grand kids. Unfortunately it rained all day Saturday so Evan's baseball game was rained out but we had a nice visit, played inside baseball and celebrated Will's birthday. It was a fun weekend with lots of laughs.

What are big brothers for....

This is Ian's usual seat when Evan's watching TV. Then it usually turns into piggy back rides or bronco horse. Ian will start pulling on his hair to try to get him up if he won't move.

Another tooth gone...

The baby teeth are slowly disappearing. Today another is lost and Evan showed me his other big tooth is now loose. He may be toothless on top by the time we're done. Of course he wants to show me how it's just hanging and I just don't do well with that at all. When you can push your tooth one way and then the other way...yuck.

Mother's Day

We went to Stuart, Oklahoma for Mother's Day. Robbie's family always gets together up there and goes to church and then has a HUGE lunch. Evan has always had a good time because there's lots of kids and lots of area to just run. They have horses, dogs, critters...it's a boys heaven. This year is was chilly and rainy but they did get to go outside for some of the time. It was great to see everyone and visit. I also got beautiful flowers and some lovely art and jewelry from Evan. Ian made me a poem with his hand print. It was a beautiful day.
