Katie's First Haircut

Katie got her first haircut tonight. We really did not want to cut it, but the poor baby walks around with her hair in her face half the day because she just will not leave clips or piggytails in. I just had them cut a few bangs to keep it out of her eyes. I threatened the lady anytime she tried to go near the back with scissors. While the cut is not what I wanted exactly, functionally it will be great for Katie. She will be able to see her whole world, not just slits of it!

Finally, an UPDATE

Okay, I just sifted through 550 pictures to bring you the next handful of postings. I had to go back almost three months! I really should clear off my memory card more often, but at least they are up now! Such wonderful memories of our Spring 2010. I hope you enjoy. My final warning, there are many postings with many pictures so take it slowly. Plus, it will be awhile before I get to post again (if history serves any indication!).

Sweet Moments

A rare glimps of my sleeping first born! He looks so peaceful when he sleeps and I am glad I got to snap a picture. I cannot believe he is already six! Life is going by so quickly. I know he is only going to get bigger and these pictures will be harder to capture. I love seeing him sleep and hearing about his dreams.

Biscuit Brother's Farm Concert

We took a trip up to the Biscuit Brother's farm for their annual family day. We walked around the farm and heard several really good bands, including The Biscuit Brothers! Keldon really liked it. It was so awesome to see his love of music. He looked so handsome in his hat.

Easter in Hallettsville

We enjoyed a weekend trip to Halletsville this year. It was a beautiful drive out there. The kids enjoyed dying eggs and seeing the farm again. We also went fishing. We all caught fish, except Katie who was unsure of the whole thing. Keldon loved having his own pole with an acutal hook on it this time. I got brave and wormed my own hook once or twice. Not that I would do it again. . . Here are some pictures from the weekend.

More Wildflowers

There are wildflowers everywhere this year. I really love these pink/red ones. I had to stop along the side of the freeway to take picutres of them. I realized that Katie's dress matched the flowers so well. I had the kids get out and took a few quick pictures.

Easter 2010

Keldon got tons of eggs!


Katie wanted a flower painted on her face.


Keldon chose a snake for his face.


Let the Hunt Begin!

We celebrated Easter this year with egg hunts, Easter Bunny sightings, grandparents, fishing and, of course, remembering our Savior. I am so thankful for knowledge we have of our Savior. Keldon really started to understand a small part of what the resurrection is and means for him. He asked lots of questions about what happens to our bodies and how we are going to look when our spirits get to be joined with our bodies again. I love this little boy that strengthens me and my testimony.

Wildflower Photo Shoot

We took a trip to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin. It was the perfect evening. The flowers were in full bloom and the kids were excited to run the grounds. Here is a sampling of our fun.
