Flying Kites

Image
This weekend was the perfect time to fly some kites. Addison and Daddy decided to make their own and as crafty as Daddy is and as great an artist as Addison is, the kite turned out amazing!

Bluebonnet Time

We LOVE Central Texas in the springtime! There are wildflowers everywhere and Addison loves to pick them and give them as gifts. Every day at recess she picks the yellow dandelions and saves them in her pocket or hand to give to me hours later when I come to pick her up. Each evening, we go out to pick flowers for her to give to friends the next morning. And the best part is the fields of bluebonnets that pop up everywhere. We took the girls out to take pictures today, but in true Emme fashion, she refused to even get out of the car. At least Addison was able to see them and pick a few... and maybe I can get Emerson away by herself later this week for a few pictures.

Easter in Austin

We had another wonderful day! Yesterday, we went to the farmer's market and picked up chocolate goat's milk, fresh pesto, vegetables, gulf shrimp and a seven steak for Easter dinner. On Easter, we spent the morning taking care of our flowers and birds and waiting for Nana, Papa and Aunt Shirley. We went egg hunting in bathing suites, had a lovely dinner and spent time in the pool, with the girls practicing holding their breath. We capped the night off with coloring eggs. Such a nice way to spend a weekend.
