At the art fair this year Alexis won second place. She was so excited. She loves painting and any art. In fact we turned our playroom into an art gallery. The girls love showing off their artwork to others.
We've had the fun, now it's time for the real reason for Easter. This Easter is extra special. This is Alexis first Easter as a Christian. Let me tell you I could not hold back the tears in that moment. To me that was the most important day of her life. But before we headed off to church we had to have a quick visit from the Easter Bunny. I know your going to love Brooke's hair in her picture.
The girls and I love egg hunts. Reagan went to five this year. We hit them all. Free entertainment. We even have a strategy. While all the other kids are consumed with the eggs in front of them we run straight to the back and work forward. All the eggs you could want. We filled two gallon bags of candy.
It is tradition with my sister and I to get our kids together and dye Easter eggs. This year I tried to add glitter to the mix. The kids loved it, but it didn't do what I wanted it to do. I tried to be Martha Stewart. (didn't work) This was Sarah's daughters,Sydney, first time to get to participate. Jack was sick with the flu, so he didn't get to come. The only problem we have is we never have enough eggs. They go so fast.
Reagan and I met Sarah and Sydney at the park. You would not call it a pretty day. It rained off and on. At first Sydney cried every time we would put her on something. But after watching her cousin running and playing she decided to join in on the fun. By the end of the trip we had them both swinging and they were reaching out for each other. It was so cute. Reagan loves play dates with Sydney. I have truly enjoyed this alone time with Reagan.
I took the girls to the Old Mill in North Little Rock. They love going their to see the ducks and turtles. I love going their to get awesome pictures. The best of both worlds. The pictures turned out so cute. I'm so glad we went.
