Eye-Spy

 When we are out running errands the only way to keep 2 happy children is to pack drinks and snacks. Here we are at Sam's club, the girls are sharing some bunny crackers :)

 Last Saturday Aunt Becky came out to visit us, we made waffles and bacon for breakfast and then took a trip down memory lane to Enchanted Castle to play some mini-golf. 

I think it has been about 16 years since we'd last been to Enchanted Castle and frankly I can't believe it is still in business. It looks remarkably the same except for a few changes. Charlotte and I walked around while John, Becky and Anabelle played golf.

Where did my ball go?

Sometimes you just aren't going to get a nicely posed picture that you'd like- and that's ok :)

Charlotte looks so intense in this photo, like she's really driving- I love it!

Monday morning we hosted a play date with some friends. Here is Anabelle watching out the front door, waiting not so patiently for our friends, playing "eye spy". This is probably one of my all time favorite pictures of Anabelle, I love her silhouette!

We have a basket that holds the library books in the coat tree by the front door, Charlotte loves to climb into the nook and check out the books.

On Sunday Charlotte and I took a trip to Walmart and bought some hyacinths.  I love the smell of them, next to lilacs they are my favorite spring flower. I wanted to be able to enjoy them inside so I re-planted them in this light blue urn and I am hoping they get enough sunlight on the dining room table to stay alive for a while. Eventually I will plant the bulbs outside.

I think we are going to have a little garden this year, usually I buy starter plants but this year I thought we would take a shot at growing our own from seeds. Anabelle and I planted some peas, chives, basil, and pumpkin seeds on Monday. So far no growth- we'll keep you posted on any progress :)

On Tuesday the girls went to visit Grandma and Grandpa, I snapped a few pictures at the park.

I love Charlotte's expression -she's so excited! Anabelle is such a great big sister, helping Charlotte slide down.
