I'm now OVER 30!

Seriously, how do the years go by so fast?! I can remember being a kid and thinking it was forever until my birthday, now I feel like they come every month! Wasn't I just graduating high school, or getting married or having my first child...now I'm over 30, ok only by a year, but still. I look at my children and wonder where the time is going...

I did have a great day, Molly made me cinnammon rolls for breakfast and then we had a family party that night, just pizza and cake. Regardless of my age, I am blessed. I wake up to the greatest gifts each and every morning!

Yes, a tiara cake. Fitting, don't you think? :)
Well, this was the better of the 2 pictures of me and Molly.
Me and my happy little man!
My nephew Dylan and me.

East Coast Trip

We had a wonderful trip up to the east coast, we went to MA, RI, NY, NY, CT, ME, and NH. I didn't realize how much I missed it up there - the people are so friendly, the weather is amazing and the scenery is breathtaking.

In Kittery, Maine
Playing at the beach in York, Maine. Molly loved the water!
Kyle wasn't too fond of the beach, but the water was pretty cold.
Cousins! These are Molly and Kyle's cousins in NJ (minus 3 who aren't pictured).
With their cousin from Rhode Island.
Rhode Island Family!
Me and little man at Mahnaz's wedding.

McAllen visit

We went down to McAllen for Easter, it was a very long drive but well worth it! The kids had a great time with Wawa (their great-grandmother)! They made Easter bread, decorated cookies and Wawa even took out her accordion! We went out to the 480 on a very pleasant evening. The kids really enjoyed getting to see the animals!

Wawa with her great-grandkids. She was so nice in the morning to get the kid's breakfast while I slept in a bit.
The famous accordion! The kids had a blast watching her play.

Easter Egg Hunt at Bass Pro

Bass Pro Shop had a nice Easter event going on, they put on an egg scavenger hunt and had a bunny to take pics with. The kids had a great time. That store is so cool, lots to do and see and wonderful photo ops!

Easter Cupcakes!

We all know I'm no Betty Crocker, however I really enjoy cooking/baking with the kids. It's a complete mess when we are in the kitchen, but so much fun! Such priceless memories! We decided to make Easter cupcakes, enjoy the pics!

Putting the cupcake paper in the pan.

Pouring the batter in.Mixing it all together.
Look at these!
After a while, Kyle got bored and all he wanted to do was eat the icing!
Putting the coconut on the cupcakes.
Final product - Easter Cupcakes! Mmmm

Dallas Arboretum

We enjoyed a nice day at the Dallas Arboretum with our friends, the McClure's. It was a nice day out and of course all the flowers were beautiful. Kyle wasn't feeling the outing much when we got there, he either wanted to be in his stroller or be held. It took him a while, but eventually he got into it and had fun running around. Of course, Molly loved it. She would stop and smell the flowers and even ended up with a lady bug on her face!
