Happy Easter 2009
It only took about 2 seconds for the kids to take everything out of the baskets that had been so carefully put in them but all was fun!
After all that excitement it was time to get ready to go to church. Christopher was really excited to be going to church. He is an amazing little man. At the age of 5 he already has such a strong relationship with God. He really inspires me to get a better relationship with him myself. We met Terry, Kristen and Amberly at church and it was a really nice, fun service. I definitely see this as a new spiritual journey our family is heading down. Here is a picture of us outside after services.
After church we all came back to our house and the kids thoroughly enjoyed the Easter Egg Hunt! I don't know which one had more eggs but they enjoyed the hunt so much! After all the excitement it was time to sit down and enjoy our Easter Feast as Christopher called it. It was all mouth watering from the Honey Baked Ham to the Strawberry Pie!
We really had a wonderful 2009 Easter!

Giddy Up says Carissa
I knew she was going to have NO fear and that is exactly what she had. She was so eager to just jump on the horse not caring how wild or crazy or big it was to her.
She wasn't too fond of the helmet but told her without it she wasn't riding. So the helmet made it through the whole ride! Her she is sporting the cute little helmet.
She was in heaven just going around and around.
Look at my very proud girl! She makes me so proud.

Just Hangin' Around
Yesterday Michael and Liz came over to just hang around with us and brought Bruiser over. Gunner and Bruiser played hard! Cailynn for the first time fell asleep in her Mei Tai! It felt so nice to have her sleep on me like that. She is not a real big cuddle bunny so I definitely snuggled her up!
Liz took a family picture of us just lounging around on the front porch. Of course Gunner had to have his big white butt in it!
Today we were cleaning up the yards and Gary managed to get the 50 year old forklift stuck in the dirt (ok it isn't 50 but looks like it). It was pretty funny.
Ofcourse it is 9:30 Sunday night and I am not ready for Monday. I am never ready for Monday. It just comes way too fast! I still have clothes in the dryer. I probably won't get those put away either but hey... atleast they are clean right!

Just Horsing Around
Let me tell you about the experience itself. The horse I ride was a young 3 year old most well behaved little boy ever! He must have known how much I was going to need him to listen to me because he followed my every command. Thanks to this little fellow I want a horse of my own and I can not wait until that day comes. Until then I am going to have to settle for other peoples horses! Michelle is going to have to beg me to stop wanting to ride him!
Here are a few pictures. Enjoy. So see the rest of them CLICK HERE!

Family Hike
It spawns 190 acres and it offers visitors several recreational activities, hiking trails, picnic areas, park benches, restrooms, and drinking fountains. Some of the trails and open areas have old foundations with plaques that describe what once stood there.
There are several trails to choose from. You will see lot's of trees, rock formations, small creeks, caves, amazing terrain and of course wildlife. Of course I brought the camera around to catch some of the fun we had on our hike! Hope you enjoy!
