Easter

Here our a couple of pictures from our Easter week. Check out facebook for more.

My mom requested a close up of Brooklynn, here she is...a little droopy eyed, but cute as ever!
The Saturday before Easter we had a BBQ and egg hunt with some great friends. The Barlow's, Summers', Kinghorn's, Richmond's, and Vanderpool's all made it out for some food, sunshine, and-of course-Easter Egg hunting! Here are some random pictures from the afternoon.



Since I had already worked two night shifts in a row, I was too tired to organize a family Easter picture. This is the best we could get on the floor in the kitchen. Turned out pretty cute with the girls in their flower hats and necklaces from Grammi.

March Events, making my mom proud.

There are so many things my parents made us do as kids that I hated. Now I am the mom, making my kids do all those same things, but somehow they are fun now. Life coming full circle I guess.

For Spring Break we made it up to the Waco Zoo with lots of friends. It was a beautiful day, and as usual, tons of fun.

Last Saturday Lexi volunteered to help Matt wash the car. Here she is working hard, ha!
Enjoying an afternoon in the park.
So here's the big story, (drum roll please....) The Matt Hall Family went camping on our own free will and choice. We had tin foil dinners, smokey camp fire, slept on the hard ground in a tent, and woke to a misty morning dew. All the things I gave my parents so much grief about as a child, and there I was enjoying (mostly) every minute of it.
Just hanging out, looking too cute.

Camping brings smiles all around!
Having too much fun going in and out and in and out of the tent.
Of course no campout is complete without s'mores. Alexis was an expert roaster by the end of the night. We had some good friends join us for evening and enjoyed watching the kids run around and eat way too much sugar. It was so much fun, we might even do it again sometime...we'll see!

March has come and gone, and summer is right around the corner. We are looking forward to Matt's graduation in May, an anniversary trip to Dallas, and a Utah visit in June. One last important announcement, Brooklynn is potty trained--woot woot!! Crazy ridiculous how exciting some poop and pee in the potty makes us around this house. Bubye diapers, hello Dora panties.
