well hello there...

Well good Wednesday to you...

Where have I been?...not updating lately huh? I've been getting lazy and been tired alot.

Wow, and it's now April. Can you believe it????

So here's what's been going on...

On the 22nd we planted our garden. Oh that was some fun. It was originally my little task, but thank the Lord hubs helped me. We were both a little sore the next day. He tilled it up, fenced it off and helped plant. We planted a blackberry bush, a blue berry bush, tomato plant(I'm wanting to do a few more), strawberry plants(that I fear are barely hanging on), some onions, a yellow squash plant and some taters. I'm working on more radish and peppers. And will try our carrots and cucumbers again.
Hunt tried to help, but got more in the way than anything. But we did let him have some hoeing and digging time.
Zoe hasn't messed with the fence at all from what I can tell, so that's a good thing!
Here's some pics I took of some of the garden fun.

On this same day we made a trip to Lowe's to get a few more supplies and stuff. At Lowe's we saw some good friends that we hadn't seen in a while. It was really good to see Amy and Steve and the kids. It's weird because we only live like 5 min from each other. We planned a family dinner night at some point coming up to catch up and spend some time with each other. Isn't it funny how time flies and passes before you know it.

March 26th was grandma's birthday. We joined the family at Carraba's and had dinner. It was a nice time, but the food could have been better. Hunt and little cousin didn't even eat their pizza. And Hunt is an all out pizza man. You know something isn't right when kids don't touch pizza. Hunt painted grandma a card and signed it. And Hunt and I made her a memo pad/pen holder box thing. We also gave her a GC to Kohl's.

The finished present(we stuck on stickers that says grandma, and cute saying).

We had planned a camping trip for this past weekend, but because of the weather and cold temps we decided to postpone it until later, probably in May since April's weekends are full. And thank goodness that we did! We did however spend the weekend at the lakehouse. It was fra, fra, freeeezing! I would have been miserable in a tent for sure. The weekend was spent mostly watching movies indoors and a trip to Walmart. Sunday Hunt finally got a chance to play outside and run some stink off of him! He had fun ridding his 4 wheeler and running like a mad man. He was ready to blow off some steam. It's no fun at all being cooped up indoors for a few days when you're 4. And it's not much fun to be cooped up indoors with a 4 year old who needs to get energy out either. C R A Z Y !!!!
Looking over the lake made me wish for warmer weather. I'm ready for some boating and swimming! About another month and we'll get the boat ready for summer fun.
We'll see how everyone does with skiing, boarding and tubing this year. We all had fun last season that's for sure!

We've got so much planned for April. Hunt had an appointment with Dr.Packwood(his eye specialist) today. Everything seems great and he cleared him of further visits. YAY!!!! That's one less visit for mama to remember. I can mark those off my day planner!

Tomorrow we have to go pick up Hunt's new insert and brace. We'll see how he does with one of each. He's never had this before and always had both feet in the same thing. I'm crossing my fingers that he takes to them well. We've never had any issues with him fighting us to wear them...ever.

Friday is the KECPTA Easter party. I'm sure to have way to many photos, so stayed tuned to see the fun we had.

Hunt has a birthday party to attend on Sunday. One of his little friends will be turning 5! Happy Birthday Rebecca! Hunt was invited to come and is excited. This little friend is the one that holds his hands and gives hugs and kisses. So sweet! We've been making her some special little gifts in addition to one we'll pick up Saturday. We hope she likes them. I'll post photos of them shortly.

Next Wednesday Hunt has his 6 month dentist appointment. This was the one we had to reschedule since January. He's been doing wonderfully at brushing his own teeth...what a big boy!

Then that Thursday the 9th is a Casa Manana play Rockin with Mother Goose.
Aunt Kelley is going with us so I'm sure we'll have an awesome time!

Then Easter the 12th at grandma and papa's. Hunt and little cousin M will hunt Easter eggs and we're sure to stuff our faces with some Easter goodies.

Little cousin M's birthday party is the 18th. He'll be 2 years old! Wow! Happy Birthday Cousin M!!! And I don't know if I've mentioned it or not, but cousin M will be a big brother some time around May 9th. We will have a little girl cousin to play with and enjoy.

On the 21st Hunt has an appointment with his PT Dana. She hasn't seen him in about 6weeks to 2 months. She'll see how Hunt is handling the new inserts and braces.

Then on the 25th we leave for vacation! Yippee! We'll be gone from the 25th through May 3rd. As I said before we're heading to San Antonio and maybe then a few days at the lakehouse.
And( this is too much)on the 30th of April hubs and I will celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary! Can you believe it 15 years! Man has it been 15 years already? Whoo Hooo! It sure doesn't seem like it.

Aunt Kelley has a birthday coming up on the 28th. I've already decided what goodies she'll be getting. I'm sure she'll like um.

Sometime soon, this week or next we'll go see the Easter Bunny. And I want to get some bluebonnet pictures this year to. So maybe next weekend on the 11th I can talk hubs into taking us to find a good patch. I've seen a few areas, but none that looked really great. We may need to make a little trip of it to find good ones. Last year we missed them due to lack of rain fall. This year seems to be looking good.
And the pick your own farm that's in Arlington says they open in April, so we'll soon make a trip that way to. I need to be sure what they have and when we can go first. I can't wait!

And lastly Kel and Steph and I will be making a little trip East this Saturday. We'll be heading to CANTON!!! I just love Canton! Steph's son and Hunt will be tagging along to, so it won't be just the girls this time. Oh well, it's Canton, who cares!!! I try to go every chance I get...kiddos or not!!! HA! I've got my eye out for a few things, so we'll see what we end up bringing back.

I know this posting was kinda long...thanks for hanging in there.(word of caution..i didn't check for grammer or spelling on this post..hahaha)

Catch you soon!...
