Spring Break

I know I am writing this all backwards Spring break and Easter were a few weeks ago, but we want to keep the family updated on events.
For spring break we wanted to do somthing fun
and managble for mom so we went to Lake Lure.
The boys got to fish and it was enjoyable until the swiming dogs showed up and Jackson's line got caught in a tree.  Well mom doesn't do bait nor can she mircalously pull the line out of the tree. So when I cut the line there were lots of tear, but that was by the end of our trip. Unfortunatly, no fish were caught,  Trey did have a little nibble.





I got to play with the babies and if there had been more shade and less bees it would have been a perfect trip.  The babies loved their stroller ride but hated the sun.  I could not believe it was close to 90 degrees out.
 
All in all the trip was wonderful.  The trees were beautiful and in bloom and the Lake was quiet. And again it was a good time to visit with minimal tourist.  No crowds less stress especially with little ones.  Perfect place to burn some energy.

Easter and 6months

6 Months already where has the time gone.

Samuel is almost a Sparky 3. Don't you love the hair sticking up at top.

Here are some Easter Pics.


Ah, some brotherly love.

This is as good as it gets with Samuel.
I finally caught both of them with descent smiles

Great Friends

We had a wonderful visit with our friends from Utah.  There is nothing better in life than to meet up with old friends and finding out nothing has changed and we picked up right where we left off.  With only three days to spend together we took them to one of the Cannon Family favorite places Pisgah and it was  the right time of year to go with hardly any tourist, except us of course.

The kids liked climbing on rocks and trees.

Here is the whole gang at Looking Glass Falls


Here's all the Girls.  Are they adorable  or what!!

The littlest girl of are friends loves to pick flowers so she pick these  and gave them to me.
