Pizza Party



We started the weekend with a pizza party Friday with the Bacsiks and Freemans. I believe there was a Ranger game on but Mike was a great sport and watched "Elmo Sing Along" with the girls.

We actually got all 6 kids to sit still for a picture. I was laughing so hard most of the them didn't turn out because the camera was shaking. Anyway, you get the idea. Six little blessings all in the 1100 block of Clinton. We never have to worry about Brooke or Wyatt running out of things to do or kids to play with!

The Easter Festivities Continue

We completed the Easter festivities today despite the rain.





Brooke was what we like to call "good tired". She went right to sleep after a full day of Easter Egg hunts and festivities. It was a good thing too. With her daddy out of town I wasn't sure how she would do. She asked for him about 10 times. Aunt Kim printed off pictures of Scott and Charlotte North Carolina to explain where Daddy was. Brooke went to sleep with both pictures (priceless).

We kicked off the Easter events with a wonderful brunch from Chef B Beth on Saturday. The meal featured pancakes in the shape of a B. Papa hid Easter Eggs out front and gave everyone huge chocolate eggs with suprises inside.



We had an Easter Egg hunt with her cousins Saturday afternoon. The sun was shining and there were a ton of eggs to find.



We started Sunday morning with Easter mass at Incarnation. Brooke enjoyed the music so much she applauded and shouted "yea". We were a little embarrased but in a good way. Wyatt made it to the service too and received a blessing from the priest. After church we came back to Clinton Avenue for an Easter Egg hunt with Phoebe and Mary Grace. The girls loved the lolly pops Mr. Easter Bunny left behind.






We finished off the day at Ahma and Poppy's with brunch and plenty of play time with Megan and Dru. The kids drew a road with chalk so Brooke could drive her car in the drive way. The chalk design included landmarks like the Dallas Zoo, Nasher Center and Reunion Arena.



Our Baby is Growing Up





Danny sent this picture from a year ago. It is hard to believe how quickly our baby is growing up. Actually, it is hard to believe how quickly both babies are growing up. This time last year we were just sharing the news that Wyatt was on the way. Brooke will be driving before we know it. Audrey and Brooke were already getting started in the Jeep Saturday.






We are blessed with a great family to bring our babies up with. Mamaw actually got most of the kids to sit still for a group photo.


Left to right: Jay, Alexis, Brooke, Elijah, Audrey, Jasmine and Kayla (Wyatt was napping again :))

A Trip to the Zoo

We took a trip to the Dallas Zoo. Brooke was very excited to see all of the animals!




Brooke road the carousel this time (with Daddy of course). We'll be making more trips to the Zoo this Spring and Summer.

Kessler Easter Parade - Saturday, April 4, 2009




Brooke (almost 2), Phoebe (3) and Mary Grace(4) went to the Kessler Park Easter Parade in matching dresses. The Bishop Dunne band played and there was a guest appearance from the Easter Bunny. Brooke had nothing to do with the Bunny. She did like the band and the Easter egg hunt though. Wyatt was home taking a nap. (He'll make it next year).
