Easter

For the first time since we've been married, we were able to spend Easter with at least one member of our family- my mom! She was in town visiting & helping me prepare for our upcoming garage sale! We headed to church on Saturday night- it's still weird to me on holidays like Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day, etc to not go to church on Sunday morning. Anyway, few pics before church~

The three of us


Austin and Gigi (precious, huh?)


Sunday morning we got up and had donuts, since he wasn't going to get enough sugar with all the candy. He opened his Easter basket & then hunted eggs later in the afternoon!

Easter basket, new colored pencils and markers, and this dog that he's been wanting that barks and walks (the cats are not a fan.)


SO excited about the puppy dog




No so excited




Wanted candy immediately- at 8:30am.






Time to hunt some eggs










Checking out what's inside them

Austin 3 yr & family pics

A few weeks ago we had pictures take for Austin's 3rd birthday! My friend, Paige (Paige Pearson Photography), took the pics and told Shane & I to coordinate with Austin's outfit "just in case" we had time for a few family shots! Well of course she got a TON of great ones- fantastic job! Here are a few:

Spring pics

On Saturday we headed to Grapevine Botanical Gardens to take some spring pics of Austin & Evie. Considering their age, I thought we got some pretty good shots! After posing for some pics (mostly involving bribes of candy), we played at the park for a little bit & then ate lunch together!

Some pics of Austin
















Notice his hands in this one :)


A few pretty shots






Love this bridge


Austin thought this little guy was great!


Throwing acorns & rocks in the water (they are such rule breakers)

After we got home we played in the yard & Austin helped Shane pull up the pansies so we can plant some spring plants! A very fun day overall!
