Circus!!!

We went to the circus today. We had some friends offer us free tickets (SWEET!). It was really fun. The kids seemed to enjoy it....although Jaybird wasn't really fond of the clown and definitely didn't want to have his picture taken with him--not that I can blame him! Clowns are kinda freaky.
Sammy and I both got to try out the tight rope. Very fun. Thankfully someone held your hand the whole way across....oh, and it was only like two feet off the ground! :)

Sara Grace got to try on some circus garb. She thought it was quite fun. I think I would have liked to try on a cute dress like the other girls were wearing. They were too cute! :)
They handed out free clown noses that, of course, we all enjoyed!
Even Sara Grace had a little clown nose that she left on just long enough for a picture! :) There were all kinds of neat shows. The tigers were really pretty. There was a dude that rode a bicycle that was literally like maybe a foot long and six inches high. I have no idea how he did it. And, the rope climber girl was pretty cool, too. We had a really good time! Thank you Jason, Jessica, and Cloe for inviting us! :)

Egg Hunt

We had an Easter Egg Hunt at church the day before Easter. Sammy's parents came up for all the Easter festivities. Here's a shot of everyone on the starting line.
And one of Granny helping Jaybird scout out the prize eggs! :)
And one of Sara Grace checking out her eggs--she was happy with just the orange one, but Jaybird wanted her to have the pink one. He had found it in the field and said she needed it and brought it to her. :) I learned a valuable lesson at the egg hunt that day. Any of you with little girls of your own might want to tuck this away in your vault of random knowledge. *Tights and grass don't mix!* After I picked Sara Grace up from her nice little spot in the field, the tights were COVERED in grass....like it was stuck to them like little porcupines, and it wouldn't come off!! I ended up just trashing the tights--that's how bad it was! :)

Easter

Okay, so I'm going to try out this Blog stuff. :) Here's a picture of us from Easter morning.

And, this is how Jaybird really felt about his suit!! :)

Actually, he's quite fond of his suit. His Granny got it for him for Aunt Missy's wedding that's in three weeks! (YIKES--need to lose more weight!) He especially likes the tie that Sammy and I picked out for him. It's a zipper tie--which is really cool--I'd never seen those before. He can put it on and take it off himself. He, of course, showed this trick to EVERYONE at church on Easter morning!! :)
