Three (make that four) Little Blessings!

We have been having so much fun lately! Gary has had an easy rotation the last couple of months which has given us some much needed time together. The weather has been perfect for as long as I can remember. But most importantly we have three special blessings that keep us going!

Blessing #1

Blessing #2

Blessing #3

Okay, I can't leave Doc out...he is our blessing #4 and the best dog.

In January, Cayson turned 5 years old. Wow! Gary's Mom and Aunt Mud were in town and helped make his day extra special. Rammy made yummy dirt/worm cupcakes, Aunt Mud snuggled Easton and helped chase after Kinsley. Gary and I decorated the house and put up a pinata and pin the tail on the donkey. After pre-school all of his buddies came over and boy did we celebrate! It was 90 minutes of non-stop, chaotic, and intense fun (if you catch my drift). :-)

We got Cayson a raccoon trap for Christmas and one evening in February the boys set their trap and had a raccoon in it the very next morning!

Cayson is in the dog house!!! Cayson will sit outside for hours with his BB Gun hoping to get a shot at something. He killed a Dove and we all ate him for dinner one night...he was proud to provide for his family.

 

Both Kinsley and Easton had their first hair cut recently. Gary shaved Easton's baby hair off on Feb. 6th, and then on March 11th we went to Great Clips and had Kinsley's hair trimmed.

Easton is starting to eat baby food...and his big sister loves to take care of him.

Gary had a week off in March, so we packed up all three kids and experienced our first family of five vacation! We went to the Smokey Mountains and stayed in Gaitlinburg, TN. It was so beautiful there!

We also went to the Creation Museum in Kentucky during Gary's vacation week; there was a great petting zoo there and Cayson got to ride a Camel!

Cayson is becoming quite the fisherman! He caught the bass in the picture below all by himself! Gary was impressed with his reeling skills and grateful the pole & Cayson didn't fall over the rail in the process!

Cayson also caught a bunch of tadpoles at the lake and some slugs in our backyard...so the next day he decided to have a slug and tadpole stand. He sold some tadpoles to the neighborhood girls, and talked his dad into buying a slug & tadpole too. Overall another pretty successful day! 1 slug at $.25 plus 6 tadpoles at $.30 each = $2.10.

Cayson and Kinsley had a lot of fun participating in three egg hunts this Easter. Easton wanted to get his hands on a few eggs too! And I love the picture of my handsome husband and three cute kids all dressed up for Church on Easter Sunday.

Cayson had a field trip for pre-school at Sunrock Farms. It was a special Mom/Son Day! We got to milk a goat, hold a chicken, and pet lots of farm animals.
Love the chick on his head :-).

Happy Spring!
