Easter

We had an Easter egg hunt at Aunt Corrie & Uncle John's house this year. The kids had a blast....playing with the dirty dog and eating lots of candy!





Ronin loves animals....



The dog was WET from running through the mud. But that didn't stop Ronin from giving the dog some love.



































The kids with Ninny (John's grandmother). Ronin closes his eyes when you ask him to say Cheese!



I love the look Jax is giving...










So sweet!







We had a flat tire on the way home. It took us soooo much longer to get home. I think like almost 2 extra hours. I wanted to take a picture of the manual...I was reading the owner's manual to see where the spare tire was...and it said "This vehicle is not equipped with a spare tire due to having no where to accommodate it." I'm not kidding. We found the flaw of a hybrid...all the extra stuff underneath takes up too much room so a tire cannot be stowed. Oh well, the equipped the vehcile with a nice compressor with built in sealant. Unfortunately the sealant leaked and was running through the parking lot. I get tickled everytime I see this picture of John's face....have you ever had a blowout on a Sunday afternoon after your kids who are 3 years old and under have eaten candy for 3 straight hours?? It's a LITTLE frustrating, to say the least. haha. But we survived!

Moses the Pumpkin

For a school pumpkin parade project, Jax has to come up with a character from a book that he enjoys reading. Then we had to decorate the pumpkin like that character. I made a couple of suggestions (Pete the Cat, Captain Flynn and the Pirate Dinosaurs), which Jax immediately shot down. He picked a book from our bookcase about ghosts of Mississippi which I immediately shot  down. I told him that he must pick a book that he actually reads. About 30 minutes later, Jax walked into the kitchen announced his new selection: "I have picked The Bible, and I want my pumpkin to be Jesus." Well, how do you argue with that request?? However, I could not imagine how in the world we could accomplish such a thing. John and Jax took off to Walmart to look for some Jesus hair. Unfortunately, Walmart was all out of potential Jesus hair. So we asked Jax if there was another character from his Bible that he would like to use. He chose Moses. Thank goodness Jax has a creative and artistic daddy! Th...

Banana Bedhead....

I'm sure that Paul Mitchell would be very interested in this new hairstyle that Jax modeled last night. I've known for quite some time that Jax is pretty smart. Now I think that it's obvious that he will also be very fashion savvy. After eating his entire bowl of Spaghetti-o ravioli, I cut up some bananas for him to eat. By the way, we've mastered this new way of eating...2 forks!! While he's feeding himself with one, I'm getting the other fork loaded up with the next bite. He would get a little stingy and refuse (okay, throw a fit) to hand back the fork. So problem solved = 2 forks!! Anyway, he gets pretty sticky when eating bananas because they obviously don't slide on the fork too well. So he uses his fingers. Naturally, the perfect place to wipe your hands when you don't have a shirt is in your hair. Plus fruit is good for you, so it must be good for your hair. Although he didn't exactly say it, I know that he was thinking of calling this very t...

Jax's 3 1/2 year old birthday party

Image
Yes, we love half birthdays! When you have a birthday too close to Christmas, it is so fun to celebrate a half birthday in the summer. Besides that, Lisa died the day before his birthday. Not an easy time for our family. My mom did this with me too...since I was a December baby..I sometimes had half birthday celebrations instead. Jax was very specific about his requests...he wanted a Rocky party...with Rocky and the Russian fighting on top of the cake. However, there was not enough room for both. Megan Lucius made the cake! I made the cookies...Lightning Bolt cookies..."When you eat lightning..." We had a poster printed up for a game...prizes were awarded based on which person caused the water balloon to break. It started storming in the middle of the party...all the kids came in for ice cream and cake. They watched Toy Story 2.(June 13, 2010)
