Mother's Day Tea and Art Walk

I am a little behind since the Mother's Day Tea at Kaylee's school was on April 30th. I will try and get caught up on everything in the next few days. :)

Kaylee and I heading out to the tea. Yes, I still had my Easter stuff up. I think it finally came down last Tuesday!


Memaw was able to come too!


The kids all sang us a few "Mommy" songs and then we watched a slide show of all the kids.

Back in the room the kids sang us a few more songs and then the teacher read us a story about how quickly your kids grow up and all the lasts that they have from last time feeding them a bottle, to last time rocking them at night, to just holding them and all the lasts of growing up..... I was in tears. I have found myself in tears a lot lately (three times alone just in the Mother's Day service last Sunday) with Kaylee finishing up preschool and thinking about her heading off to Kindergarten in the fall. Just realizing how quickly she is growing up and I am really trying to enjoy all the time I have with her at home since soon she will be at all day school and getting busy with life.

Then we walked around and looked at all her displayed art work

This is so cute and pretty right on! We love to play games together, I love the Private Selection Brand Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream....I say it is heaven in a carton....kind of become an addition of mine...anyway, jumped the gun on the age a little...not 31 until this Saturday...don't want to rush it ;), and she is so sweet to say I make yummy dinners since about 50% of the time I didn't think she likes what I made! :)

Okay, off to eat some blueberry ice cream. Now everyone knows my weakness!

Easter

It is so easy to get caught up in the bunnies and eggs but we need to remember the real meaning and why we celebrate this holiday. Thank you Jesus for your life, death, and resurrection, so that through you we can be forgiven and spend eternity with you in heaven. Thank You!!

The Easter bunny showed up!

...and left lots of jelly beans!

time to find all the eggs the Easter Bunny left. Inside first....

...then outside

Show me your jelly bean bribe so you would sit and take pictures with me!

Let's go fly a kite

....up to the highest height!

Before Easter dinner it was very breezy out so we went outside to the greenbelt behind our house to try out the new kite from the Easter Bunny.

Where's the baby??

This is one of Alexa's favorite things to do right now. She will hide in different spots around the house and then I will hear, "Mommy, where's the baby?" wanting me to come find her. The game closet is one of her most favorite places to hide!



Boo!
