The Saturday of Easter weekend Grandma and I took the girls to an egg hunt in town.  It was a quick egg hunt where each kiddo could hunt for 5 eggs.  There was a drawing at the end for raffle prizes which we didn't win.  Harper was stoked to eat ALL of her candy from the eggs.  Liv held onto the same piece of chocolate for like 30 minutes.  By the time we were back at the lake she had melted chocolate all over her hands and face.  We had a nice little outing to start the weekend.

A daddy and his girls

A couple weekends ago, we stayed one extra day than the rest of the peeps at the lake.  We had a nice family of four time of fishing and gardening.  These two peanuts adore their daddy.  He equally adores his girls.   What an amazing relationship they have.  Blessed!

Liv j.z. loves to dance.  She jams out in the living room, car, or the boat.  She isn't particular where she jams out at or to what music she listens to...just as long as she can bob her head:)

Garden 2012



Since we now have another trailor at the lake, we also have a garden that came with it.  I tilled it (my first time) a few weekends ago and we (Teaf &  I) planted last weekend.  Teaf had mapped out where everything was going weeks prior.  He roped off the areas and then we teamed up planting and watering.  My dad ended up helping out towards the end of the day too, which was definately helpful.
It's really early round' these parts to be planting but with the nice weather we just couldn't resist.  Usually May is the time people start to plant so hopefully we won't get hit with below 32 degrees for too many days.  I am learning a whole lot about gardening and its so awesome.  The girls are into it too.  This past weekend Teaf and I had are eyes to the ground looking to see if we could see any fruits to our labor from the past weekend.  I know it seems kinda silly because it had only been 7 days.  WE ARE EXCITED and a bit nervous because some of the "rules to gardening" we are learning after we already planted;)  Its an adventure none the less.  YAY for home grown food!
