A Weekend with Hannah

I had the greatest time with Hannah this past weekend. Her mommy and daddy were in Chicago for a Dare2Share conference with their youthgroup (God did great things as always) and Hannah stayed at my house from Friday until Sunday. It was so nice to have a friend to playwith everyday!! Here are some of the things we did:

Checking out ladybug on the playground set that eventually led to a ladybug hunt

Hannah loved cooking up yummy treats


We had lots of time to play outside

One of many smiles

Teaming up to fill up the swing

Watching from up high

So precious and sweet

Getting our hands all cleaned up

Gearing up for stories and bed time

Breakfast! Yummy waffles, syrup and berries!!!!

Igloo house fun after naps =)

Aquadoodle was a hit!

Shovels, buckets, digging - the perfect way to spend an afternoon!

Some chill out time in the play house =)

Monkeys in action

They loved riding bikes -especially the battery operated ones

We took a million more pictures, but mom is getting tired =) We also have some video clips, but for some reason they aren't loading properly...we'll post them later.

odds and ends

More March Birthdays

On Sunday March 14th we went out to see my Grandpa and Grandma Cripe to celebrate my cousin Aubrie's b-day and my Grandpa Cripe's birthday. Of course I was thrilled to spend some time with Lizie the horse and Blynken the cat.

I love Lizzie

Climbing hay bales was a hoot

Blynken came to play with me

I really like playing in the toy box with my cousins

We had a great time!!!

Such a Boy!

Spring is in the air and with that comes fun in the MUD! This is why being a boy is so much fun =) I put on my rain boots (can't see 'em 'cause they're covered in mud) and hopped in and then pretended like I was a piggy =) FUN STUFF

Being a Piggy in the mud =)

On March 13th we went to my Aunt Joan's house to celebrate Joseph's 18th birthday, Uncle Michael's 30 something b-day, Uncle Chuck's 50 something b-day, and Uncle John's 60 something b-day =) We had a delicious taco dinner and LOTS and LOTS of FUN!!
