Easter Egg Hunt

We had a play group Easter egg hunt on Friday.

Witnie just went with the flow.

Sydnie knew exactly what to do.

Witnie was so proud to sit on a big chair.

Awesome Hike and More

On Friday since it was spring break my friend and I took the kids to Brazos Bend.

The weather was perfect for basking alligators and we saw a lot of big ones.

We also saw a nest of babies.

Maddie and Brooklyn looking at a small one.

Here are the older 4 hiking,

and taking a break.

This is a tiny baby red-eared slider

Witnie and her boyfriend Luke. He is about 3 weeks older and weighs as much as Sydnie.

Say cheese!
This is an awesome invention Mark and I (mostly I) made up.

Saute red onions and garlic in oil

Mix with italian grated cheese, chopped tomatoes, and chopped avacado

Mix in enough mayo to make it stick together

Spread on sour dough (or any sort of baguette) bread and broil until melted

I guess she was tired.
The kids have all had colds and Sydnie has an ear infection, so this was our Sunday afternoon.

Camping at Mineral Springs

We went camping Friday and Saturday at a place called Mineral Wells National Park. Mark had to explore a 40 mile stretch of the Brazos River for a high adventure trip. The s and I had a fun time while he was on the river.

We actually found a trail with elevation change.

Lunch Break!

Ready to go.

Witnie found a drink (at home).

Mark and Dann at take off

This is the first scorpion we have seen in Texas. It was under our tent.
Witnie last week while we were working in the yard.

I made this cake for Enrichment Thursday.
