Easter

Here comes Peter Cottontail, hopping down the bunny trail, hippity hoppity Easter's on its way!  Belle was so excited this year that "Easter Tale" was coming to her house.  I really don't know how she came up with that idea for the Easter Bunny, but "Easter Tale" he became.  Always fun to be with family on Easter.  Great food with both of our families.  















Sam made Easter Gifts this year, with his "Rose Pens".  He then started to sell the rest of his supply racking up some good money from family.  He has got some new designs for the rose petals that he learned from a book, and they will be on the market soon.  Right now, the price is still $0.75/each.








Nanny got the boys lamps for their head, and the boys quickly found use for them.  Easter morning around 6 AM, we noticed lights flashing in the living room.  Upon investigation, Sam and Davis had found their prizes and were hunting through things with their new lights.









We also got to see Sam's good friend Nathan who was in town for Easter.  We met them at the Dairy Queen and enjoyed getting to visit with Nathan and his family.

Spring Break (The Croods)

Our last day of Spring Break!  Oh No!  It went by to fast.  Magan convinced me that we just had to go do one last fun thing...and off to the movies we went.  It seemed that others had this same idea as we saw several friends there also.  And for The Croods, the Junkin Family give it two thumbs up...even though Magan had to explain some of the more difficult scenes to me.  A lot of funny stuff.

Chattanooga - Day 2 (Children's Museum/Ruby Falls)

This children's museum was right next to our hotel, and was not on our list of things to do, but...did I mention it was right next to our hotel with large windows showing a three story play area and waterfall with images of dinosaurs all over the building and a dinosaur car out front and we had to pass right by in twice on our trip to Sugars the night before...we decided we should try it out.  

It was really fun, but water areas in the first room is not a good thing.  Kids don't understand that when they get wet, they are wet.  They all had fun, of course Sam found the paper activity area.  




















Our last attraction to visit before going home was Ruby Falls.  And I found some more fun pictures of this same sign 15 years ago.  Apparently we couldn't find anyone to take our picture of us together at this spot.  Belle liked passing the other groups on our way to Ruby Falls, she smiled and waved to all who would look our way.  Reminded me and Mag of a cute little girl that was on our tour 15 years ago.  To the Falls and back, a fun day again, then everyone went to sleep while Dad drove us back.
