Owen with his great-aunt, Angie. He was trying to take his hat off.

Kyra rode the flying elephants with Angie. They were having a ball!

This is the look Elijah gave Chris when he tried to take a picture of Elijah and Mamaw Velvet on the elephants.

He got a little more excited about playing in the water!

Silly Kyra! She liked playing in the water, too!

Owen didn’t get to ride much more than the stroller. He did get to ride the carousel, but I was holding him on the horse and didn’t get to take a picture.

Elijah drove Mamaw Velvet off into the sunset. (Don’t worry. He brought her back in one piece.)

Kyra took Angie for a spin!

And, finally, we have the obligatory “hold the camera out to take your own picture” shot to prove that Chris and I were actually there. He wasn’t cooperating and I had no make up on. I had also been wet at one point. So, it’s not a great picture. But I was there! I have the picture to prove it.

Kyra went to Emily’s birthday party today. They had so much fun. There were ladies from church there who did their hair, make-up, and nails, and they all wore princess dresses. Kyra had a ball.

This is a picture of me and Joy and of course Owen. It was one of those “hold out the camera and take your own picture” deals, so it isn’t the best. We went out to lunch, and had a great time talking.

I was trying really hard to get a good picture of Owen in his adorable Tennessee outfit that Josh and Beth got him for Christmas. He looks SO cute in it.

He wasn’t really cooperating, though.

Finally, he sat still.

The Kiddos in their Easter finery. Kyra’s Easter dress was sleeveless, so she had to wear a shirt under it, since it was COLD. It was almost too cold to hunt Easter eggs.

The kids with their cousin, Keinzie.

Kyra looking sweet and pretty.

Elijah was saying, “Cheese!” He didn’t get that it defeated the purpose when he barked it out with a hateful look.

In pursuit of the easter eggs!
