Easter!

Easter is here!  He is Risen!!!  The kids were up early scoping out what the Easter Bunny brought and searching for eggs around the house!

We attended 7:45am mass - of course getting there right at 7:45am so we weren't in the main part of the church but being in the gym was just as nice.  

A few quick pictures of the princess when we got home in her pretty dress!

One of the favorite things that Ashley got from the Easter Bunny was a matching chef apron, hat and oven mitts with Bitty Baby.  Daddy made the most wonderful breakfast for us.  Ate way too much but enjoyed the eggs, bacon, hash browns and coffee cake!

Trevor couldn't wait to drink his Dr. Pepper that he had given up for Lent!

Then lots of fun outdoor time in the back yard and some tennis down at the courts before having steak for dinner!

Daddy took down his steak like a champ.  Clearly we missed meat, which he gave up again this year (like his 4th year or something).  Maybe next year he'll try something different!

Easter Egg Hunt at PCC

What a perfect day weather-wise for our country club's annual Easter egg hunt!  Trevor was obsessed with the bunnies, begging us over and over to let him bring one home.  Ashley was all about her friends!  Even brought Sophia and Kennedy home to play afterward!  

Ashley Kindergarten Graduation Picture

Does it get any more precious than kids in caps and gowns?!?!  Can't believe our baby is almost done with kindergarten!!

Trevor's 3rd Grade Musical

Trevor's 3rd grade musical was amazing!!  We can not believe all the songs they had to memorize and actions to go with.  WOW!  The kids even knew all the words to Vogue!  We were impressed!!!

First Upward Soccer Games!

Finally the day arrived for the first soccer games for the kids!  It really is a neat experience where the kids run through the tunnel after their team is announced.  Today was a double header and it was freezing out.  Trevor rose to the occasion but Ashley told her coach that she was born in Arizona and doesn't like cold weather so she quit.  Literally, walked over to the bench and laid down.  LOL. Luckily she got back on the field after warming up a bit!  

Ashley Pediatric GI Appt

Ashley's pediatrician wanted her seen by a peds GI doctor for that 'throwing up in her mouth.'  Only problem is that the nearest one is in Springfield, MO (about 2 hours away) so we made a day of it, just Ashley and Mama!  The appt went well.  We really liked the doctor and all the time he spent with us.  We are going to try Prilosec for 8 weeks, off it for 2 weeks and then see him.  He suspects that it will stop her stomach problems and reverse any damage in her esophagus from the acid reflux and that will be the end of it!  Fingers crossed.  If not, we will have to scope her to see what is going on.  He gave us foods to avoid - one of them ketchup so we had a last hurrah with Chick FilA before driving back and hitting up the Bentonville Square for ice cream and park time!

Dance Co in OKC!

We headed to OKC again for a dance competition and this time Daddy got to come with!  YAY!  After a yummy meal out we got to the hotel for some iPad time!

Ashley was SO excited to see her "big sis" Ava FINALLY at a dance competition!  And sweet Ava gifted her the best Easter basket filled with all things unicorn, rainbow and mermaid!

Awards time!

Ashley's new friend goes everywhere she goes now!

Stephanie the photo bomber behind us LOL

It's exhausting dancing your heart out on stage and getting 2nd!!!

Hard to be a dance brother too!!  Zzzzzzz
