Easter all Around

 Easter weekend was a full one this year.... church, family, blue bonnets, egg decorating, swimming in the rain, t-ball, egg hunting, and a petting zoo.  We were all pooped by the end of the weekend. 

We started the weekend off with a little t-ball followed by some forced family fun in the bluebonnets...

 Rylan decided to eat the blue bonnets... I spent the car ride home googling whether or not they are poisonous. 

 Haircuts much? 

They are either laughing and being silly together, or they are killing each other... there's no happy medium right now.

This year we went to Amber's church for their annual Easter egg hunt.  The kids got enough tootsie rolls and smarties to last until next Easter and had the best time in the petting zoo. 

This picture reminds me of our first petting zoo experience... when Reese got attacked by the giant goat.  She didn't do petting zoos for a very long time after that.  And look at her now... still thinks they stink, but she'll get right in there with them now!

It's just not Easter without dyed eggs... Reese and Emma colored most of the eggs this year.  The boys were just way too cool busy.

This is what the boys were busy doing while the girls did all the work.  Typical... this is where you'll find Tucker all summer long! 

Sunday after church we all went to my parents house for lunch.  We got in a few pictures right before the monsoon hit... uncooperative children make for great family photos.

This post is almost as long as our weekend!  I'm tired just looking at the pictures.  It was an exhausting weekend, but one complete with lots of family and fun. 

Itchy Legs & Coordinating Outfits

I'm pretty sure Chris thinks my goal in life is to torture him and Tucker. On several occasions he's reminded me that boys don't wear "outfits"... and they don't sit in flowers to take pictures. Well, in the Tims family they do. This weekend, we met my best friend, Andrea, and her family for our annual Bluebonnet Beatdown. Although, I must say it was hardly a beatdown this year. We didn't have creepy kids trying to get in the photos, there was no need to bribe anyone with yogurt melts, and we didn't have to drive around for over an hour to find the perfect spot. We might just have to rename this annual event.


I wish they were this nice to each other all the time.







Don't call the sheriff. Somebody forgot to tell Tucker that its illegal to pick bluebonnets in Texas.




Poor Tucker was miserable most of the time. I didn't think about how sensitive his skin is when I put him in shorts. He was not happy about how itchy the grass made his legs.








Once again, I made sure our "outfits" were coordinating. Someone please tell Chris how much better the pictures turn out, will ya?!


Andrea's husband, Justin took most of these pictures for us. Thanks Justin! They turned out great!
