Easter Party Party

We've had a crazy, fun couple weeks. We headed to Ohio to spend Easter with Justin's family. Jarrett had a great time; he got to hunt eggs in the morning with Justin's parents and did pretty well. However, Jarrett missed the big easter egg hunt with all his cousins because he was asleep, but he loved his Easter basket from G & G Cox because he got bubbles and a squirt gun. Let's just say Lewis HATES the squirt gun. Poor dogs, we just let Jarrett torture them ;)



This weekend, a bunch of my friends from high school and I celebrated Ashlee's bachelorette party! The night started off with a Pure Romance party at a friend's house! It was so fun to be able to catch up with everybody because it's just so difficult to find time to keep in touch and actually have nights out together. Ash's big day is in 1 month! We are so excited!




Yesterday, Jarrett and I went up to Crown Point, IN to celebrate Krissy and Prater's baby shower with them. A long drive for one day, but so worth it. Krissy is due May 15th, so it is getting so close. I always love to see Krissy and Prater since our visits are so few and far between. It's so weird to think that Justin and I spent every single day with these two in college and now we only get to see each other 2 or 3 times a year. We miss them like crazy! They are doing so well and after yesterday I'm sure they are now prepared for Baby Prater to be here! I wasn't able to catch any pictures yesterday, but Jarrett loved all the little babies at the shower, especially one certain little girl. He kept laying on her and touching her. At one point, her mom tried to pick her up and Jarrett pulled her legs to keep her down! Oh my son!!!!! I'm positive the principle will be giving us calls quite often once Jarrett starts school. :)

Well, that's enough for now

Vacation






So, I'm no good at posting regularly...sorry :( We just got back from a weeks vacation down in Gatlinburg, TN. We went with my sister, Kristy, and her four kids for their spring break. We really had a great time, but were really tired by the time we got back home on Saturday evening. None of us have ever been to Gatlinburg, so we decided to head down there for a few days, then venture back up to visit family in northern TN. The kids had a blast in Gatlinburg at the Aquarium, Ripley's Museum, mini golf, and WonderWorks (which is the coolest place I've ever been). Jarrett and Will really loved the aquarium getting to see all the different kinds of fish and sharks (MEAN, which is what Jarrett calls them). Real quick, funny story....Later in the week, Will was acting like a shark and chasing Jarrett. Jarrett was laughing and screaming "MEAN" at Will. Well, Will then proceeded to bite Jarrett's pantleg, again, Jarrett still laughing and saying MEAN. Then Will actually got some skin with his bite, again, Jarrett is STILL laughing, but the MEAN changed tones! He had a shark bite on his knee from Will! Never once did he cry, but he was sure proud to show everyone his MEAN Boo Boo! Overall, we had a great time in Tennessee!
