JUST DUCKY

These are our regular visitors. They come at least once a week, sometimes even on a daily basis (perhaps, due in part to the bread they are fed)!! We have not named them yet, but the kids and the dog think they are pretty cool!!!




EASTER PIC

Well, here is our fancy Easter pic!!! I set up the camera to take our family's picture and this is what I got. Not too bad, not too great either!!!!

A HUNTING WE WILL GO

(I know this is way late to add... I am a little behind) The base had their annual Easter egg hunt. The kids had a great time, well except for the VERY SCARY Easter bunny. Emma thought the clown and the Easter bunny were totally unnecessary to have at the egg hunt. At one point while she was hunting eggs, the clown got within 200 feet of her and she threw done her basket and took off running and screaming. Although it was funny, it was kinda sad at the same time!

Emma hunting her eggs!


Owen hunting for more eggs!!!

Camden, Owen and Emma showing off all their eggs!

YEE-HAW

Owen and Emma had a cowboy/cowgirl day at school. Their teacher went all out with decorations for the room. Owen was totally decked our while Emma was almost all the way... her boots were too small, so she had to go without them!!

Owen and Emma ready to start their Texas round up kind of day!!!


What a handsome cowboy!!!


Emma with one of her sweet friends, Jacy!



CHAULK IT UP

Neal and Owen were out mowing the lawn and everytime Neal would stop to empty the grass into the trash can, Owen would "chaulk up" the mower. I guess watching the jets at the base really sticks in this kids mind. He watches everything....... and does not miss a beat.

Here he is putting piece number one in place.



Almost done.....



Now for the back wheels.


Neal is ready to get back on, so the chaulks come off for now.....

OUR GYMNAST

Emma began gymnastics in January. It has been really fun to watch how quickly she has picked up on it. She seems to like it much more than ballet. I think she needed a little more action. Now we just need to find an awesome gym in Alabama!!!!!











OWEN'S FIRST SOCCER GAME

Owen had his first soccer game. He is really good at it!! We think he likes being a defender the best. The teams at his age actually do not play with goalies, but Owen will run to his goal and defend it anyway!!!! His first game was VERY cold. It was about 35 degrees and windy....poor Owen. I must say, I was very proud. He was the only player that did not cry or stop playing because it was cold!
