My hair

This was my hair before I cut it.
This was my hair after meeting some hot rollers.
This is my hair after my hair cut. I love it! And this huge tulip came from our front yard.
The boys next to the red tulips. The pink ones are now out...maybe it's time for a new picture.

Easter Egg hunt 2011

Michael loved looking for eggs...but wanted time to eat the goodies.
sorry buddy, the candy is for later.
Christopher did a good job of not taking all the eggs.
He needed me to nudge closer after I took the picture.
Tricky places.
I think we have a picture like this every year. (it was nice enough to do it outside this year, but we decided inside was easier.)
We found one in the same place on the other side of the curtains when we went to close them Saturday night.
Ok, now you can have some candy.
Collecting from the light. He thought it was a clever hiding place.
We decided to open the eggs and dump the contents in the bowl, then eat a few, then put the rest in the candy jar. Happy Easter Egg hunt 2011!

Cute boys

He loves the rocking chair.
Wearing mommy's shoes & Christopher's backpack.

He loves playing basketball.
Christopher holding Michael while he was sick in March so I could get some things done.
Cute boys in their Sunday clothes.
Michael loves wearing his hats backwards.
We found this chandelier at DI new in the box for $20! The boys made a mess of the packaging, so they had to clean it up. And they were matching.

Christopher's 'football clinic'

Bronco, Rob, Michael, and Christopher
Running drills
Tackling the dummy
Hand off to the running back
Kicking. We stayed for 2 & 1/2 quarters of the blue and white game and then went home because we were too cold and wet. Of course we only saw one score & they scored atleast 3 times after we left.

Christopher's birthday!

Christopher with his football field cake
Driving his car that does cool tricks, a gift from Grandma and Grandpa Stephenson. We let him open this the day before his birthday so that he could bring it for show & tell the next day at school (Rob had a 6am meeting that morning.) Christopher woke up at 5am with Rob and opened the rest of his gifts, so I guess we didn't have to open the present early.
He loves all the cool tricks it can do.
Aunt Danielle and Uncle Keith gave him 2 kits to build. He did the race car on Saturday. He is so excited to have a car to race at next years' pine wood derby. (he doesn't listen when we tell him that this car is just to build & look at, it won't race. 2 more years, buddy.) Other, not pictured presents included money, candy, Despicable Me, 2 nerf guns & extra bullets, clothes, a journal, and little toy sea animals.
