Easter Day

This year's Easter Baskets were fun to make! Instead of getting Bexley a basket, I just filled a flower pot we had laying around with some grass (left) and made the other one with Claudia Lopez out of milk jugs (right). Cute, huh? Claudia is one clever lady!

Also, I finally bought Bexley the spiky ball she always plays with at the library. She played with it about the entire time of conference.

Mitch & I got some good stuff too-except I kinda misjudged how many bags of jellybeans it takes to fill a mason jar. And, I finally got a pizza cutter! Mitch disassembled mine last year for an object lesson...... It was a great lesson, but my pizza cutter never recovered. All in all, a nice, relaxing Easter.

After Conference we went for a walk & Bexley lived it up in the Boehmke's vintage stroller from the 70's.... It's the actual stroller Tim's Mom used to roll him around in...

A big upgrade from our Snap & Go!

Swingin' around with Dad.

Happy Easter!

During conference, Mitch kept closing his eyes. Every time I'd give him a loving nudge, he'd open his eyes and say, "I'm awake, I just have my eyes closed..." Sure you were! Last time we drag the mattress into the office for conference! ;)

SWIFT RETALIATION: Within less than an hour of me posting this, Mitch devised a plan to get me back. He put my cell phone out on the deck. When I heard it ringing outside, I knew it was a trap, but I had no idea it involved more than just trying to lock me out! I finally went out to get it-because I was dying to see who called me-Mitch locked me out of the house. NO surprise there... The surprise came when he poured a bunch of water on my head from the window directly over the back door where I was banging to get back in! Clever boy-he ever changed my special ringtone for him on my cellphone to the generic one so I wouldn't know it was him calling to lure me outside! URGH!... And so the war began.....

The Real Florida...

I think I found my new favorite restaurant in St. Augustine! I can’t believe my family has lived there for so long & this was my first experience at the Conch House. You can’t go wrong with a restaurant that has tiki huts, alligators & cars like this in the parking lot! When you eat there, you really feel like you're in Florida...

Ticklish Toes

By popular demand, we're posting some mini-videos for the Grandmas! Ladies, you'll love this! We found our new favorite game with Bexley-it's so fun to see her personality growing.


She was kinda distracted, so we tried it one more time-but she had enough! I love her so much- she's even cute when she's grumpy!

SNOW DAY!

A day off from work, yet still hard at work!

Our neighbor Twyla sings Mitch's praises every time it snows and he shovels both our driveways! The last big snow storm, he was out of town and Twyla and I braved the cold and helped each other finish the job. I must say, it's nice to have him back so I can cheer him on from the warm living room. I would help, but we only have one shovel and he won't share!

Check out the snow on our patio table! I was going to measure it with a ruler, but I think I need a measuring stick!
