This year Easter was beautiful!  The weather was great, we were able to spend time with family and had a fun Easter party with Rylynn's classmates.
We'll start with the party we were happy to host here at the house.  At First Baptist they let the kids have an off-campus Easter party so that each class can have a fun egg hunt and enjoy their friends. With help from all the parents we had a great time.






We rounded out the rest of the weekend with lots of family time and church here with just the three of us.  We couldn't have asked for a better time.  Again, it's just the simple, normal holidays and family time that we have learned to love most!

This is how well Rylynn cooperates for pictures. Smile...no way. Silly eyes... you got it!

I have so many fun things to say about all the things that we've been up to, but you aren't going to be lucky enough to get all that.  What are you about to see is a ton of photos from our spring time fun, at this point it's all I've got time to post.  It's been crazy!  I mean the kind of crazy that I love and that I'm used to.  We spend our weeks busy with school, work and all the things that keep parents running ragged.  We spend our weekends having fun!  This means birthday parties, weddings, watching cousins play ball, dinner with friends, rodeos, baby showers, movies and so so much more!

Happy New Year fun with Nate!

One of my favorite pictures! Just a typical Saturday morning with Daddy.

When Ry was about a year old she was able to get up on a horse, but it was a short ride and although it was super cute, she didn't really remember it.  For quite some time we've been hoping to get her back on, so just as the weather warmed up we had our chance.  She loved it!  She even insisted that Daddy lead her to the pasture so she could check the cows.  He did and she found a newborn calf, she was so proud of herself!  Majestic was the horse of choice.  He is (her aunt) Ryan's horse that she rode when she was a little girl.  We call him "the old man".  He behaved perfectly, he was gentle and Ry just couldn't get enough.  She even wanted Blue to ride with her.  She did a very good job at holding on to him while they rode.  Just look at these pics!  I love them!
