Easter Egg Egg-stravaganza!!!

Can you believe it - Jackson is old enough to die Easter Eggs!! This was one of my favorite things growing up... I used to LOVE to die Easter eggs at Easter time... I'm sure my mom loved it too when I INSISTED on getting the glitter decorating kits, or the bright pink die as well... but hey - it made for awesome memories... sometime we were even reminded of the fun all year since that glitter seemed to NEVER go away...right mom! :)

at any rate -- we decorated some eggs last night.... Jackson couldnt decide which kit he loved more... the Elmo kit or the Lightning McQueen (from the movie Cars) ... as you can see- he thought this was SO very cool.

thanks for checking in- its a crazy week this week!!

hugs and love....

Photo Catch-Up!

Here we are!!

I finally caught a few minutes to share a few shots from before we moved... while we moved.. and now that we ARE moved!!

We love you all!

just before we moved we picked up some new thomas the train toys for jackson... mr. sir topham is one of the fav's!


who's ready to move!!! too bad jackson thought the dolly was a TOY not for moving boxes!


in the middle of packing packing and packing some more... i walked by jacksons room and this is what i saw...... my little boy sitting in his big glider reading to himself.... LOVE that little boy!


THEN came the big move!!! I don't know whats more fun... running around with so much room - or playing with all the boxes around here!


again!


another favorite pastime time these days... putting money in the piggie bank! ANY time he sees coins he runs to his room for his piggie bank!! save those pennies boy!!!!


ohhhhhhhhh how fun is the doggie door!! I KNOW jackson likes it more then the dog does! the dog doesn't even go through it! meanwhile, jackson sticks his head out of the door and yells for the bunnies that run across the yard!


what do you do when the lamp shade breaks off the lamp... why your son picks it up and wears it of course! i came around the corner this afternoon to see this while Daddy snapped this shot! (nice work dad!)


my last two favorites from today.... this face just melts my heart! he is TOO big!!


and finally - its back to thomas the train! some of our good friends gave us their train table and i cant even tell you how excited jackson is! he LOVES to climb up there and play trains - making all kinds of train sounds!



and lastly, did i mention how much i LOVE the light in our new house? it is heavenly!!!!!!

Hope those shots made you smile... thanks for checking in on us!

we are alive!

we're alive and buried under boxes but hopefully we'll be out sooner rather then later!

we have been SO SO SO blessed to have so many amazing people around us to help pack, move, and unpack... we are very very grateful...

jacksons loving the new place - running around like a mad man!

lots to do but just wanted to drop a note to let you know all know we're still kickin'!

thanks for the understanding...

hugs,
