Proud new mom.

Our town has all sorts of great family activites. Last weekend was the annual Easter egg hunt in town. The Easter bunny was there, along with baby chicks, rabbits, goats, lambs, alligators, turtles, plus after the kids each found at least 8 eggs they can trade in their eggs for a goody bag.

After all the hundreds we spend on toys these carboard boxes are big hits, they double as cars, houses and swimming pools.

Here's Emma putting on her own sunblock lotion, so independent.

Here are just a few of the trees brought down in our yard by the big snowstorm. These are not small trees, and it was like this all over our area, everyone's yards looked like this and the streets were blocked, crazy.

How can you not just want to squeeze this kid, man i love her.

Makenna plating her seeds. We are hoping for a nice vegetable garden this year.

Emma's favorite person is Daddy. She loves her Mommoy and knows i'm the pushover, but she is a total Daddy's girl.

March has been a busy & fun month for us. March started out with us getting over 3 feet of snow in under 48 hours on March 2nd & 3rd. Hundreds of thousands of people in our area were out of power for a week or more, luckily we never lost power, just cable for about 3 days. It was crazy, we couldn't even take Emma out in the snow because it was almost over her head. We took Makenna out but she couldn't walk as the snow was up past her hips. Brett, Makenna and I stood in the backyard while it was still snowing and all you could hear were the trees snapping all around us from the weight of the snow. So, we went from this massive snow storm and the snowiest winter since they've been keeping records to one of the warmest springs we've had in a while. We've already had several days over 70 here and the forecast for the next several days is mid to high 70's and maybe reaching 80. This will be the first Easter since Makenna was born that we will not be wearing Jackets for our Easter egg hunt this year! Exciting! Brett is still looking for a job but is thrilled to be driving again! It so cute to watch him drive he has a smile on his face that he just can't wipe off, it's like a kid on Christmas, we are so excited and proud of him and ALL he's accomplished. We are still unsure of wheater or not we'll be moving May, June, July or in like 2 more years....it's all still totally up in the air. Ick. On a happier note we are SUPER happy my VERY best friend in the whole world gave birth March 29th to baby Sophia. Makenna is absolutely in love with Sophia (as are we all), she was born at 7 lbs. 12 oz. and is just so sweet and pretty. Brett and I have been totally loving holding Sophia and loving on her, I always forget just how little newborns are, man I wish they would stay that way for longer. Our family has also gotten in geocaching, for those who don't know.....geocaching is like a high tech scavenger hunt...google it...it's fun.
