Easter Eggs and Fancy Clothes

It's become our tradition to go to the Fulton Mansion in Rockport for the annual Easter egg hunt, and the boys always have a fun time fighting for those candy filled eggs. It's also become a tradition for them to get dressed in their Easter best for one day of proper photo taking. I'm way late on posting these from back in March, but here's some of the fun they had:

Getting all the eggs... no matter how many small children he has to knock over.

Mr. Dimples.

The biggest Easter ham...

All smiles...

Some kind of wascally wabbit... 

More than one Easter egg hunt... gotta get 'em all.

And of course coloring our own eggs...

Only slightly goofy...

Hunting for eggs like a bunch of bucket head zombies...

Ready for action... and we'll be back again next year probably!

Cousins from the East Coast

The boys' cousins Nick and Evelyn made their first trip to the Texas coast last week and we got to spend a few days hanging out, hitting the water, and having a great time. Nick enjoyed chasing after the older boys, splashing around in the gulf, and eating everything food-related in sight. Evelyn enjoyed... just about everything a baby can enjoy... and she was all smiles and wide eyes. 

So awesome they could make it, and hopefully they'll make it back before long!

March isn't too early...

To hit the surf and the sand! It's been some beautiful days lately, with the sun shining and the water warming up. We went up the road to Rockport to splash around in the water... what could be better in March?

Peace out, bro! Sand tastes good!

Spring for Sports

Spring time is a busy time for us. With school, and science fair, and soccer, and T-ball, and soccer, and Scouts, and everything else... we're running almost every night now it seems. But the kids are having a blast, each doing their own thing. Here are just a few photos of the craziness...

I tried explaining to the swimming school that "Noland" is not a real name... but they still can't spell it right. Maybe that's a swimming name??

Goggles on. Ready for action. Dive! Dive!

Root, root for the home team... for this kid from Southern Maryland.

The Blue Lightning are back and ready to kick their way to the championship.

Got some color and played a little laser tag.

Set Sail!

And then there's just Nolan... always ready with a sharp smile!
