Princess and Pirate Party

Hadley wanted a princess party for her birthday this year.  We added pirates too to accommodate all her little friends (and brother).  We decided to make it easy this year and just meet at a park nearby have breakfast and invite a few friends.  Grandmommy and PaPa made the long trip to College Station two weekends in a row to be sure they didn't miss it too!  It was very low key and the kids had a fun time playing.  We were very lucky that the rain took a break and it was a nice morning. 

My pirate and princess ready to party!  Hadley had planned on being Sleeping Beauty for weeks, but changed her mind at the last minute.  Ha!

Just FYI, black icing is NOT a good idea.  :)

There was a lot of sword fighting

After the party, Hadley opened her presents from Grandmommy and PaPa and we had a fun lunch at Lupe Tortilla.  

 

Such a fun day!

 

Easter 2015

We had a fun, low key Easter here in College Station.  On Thursday, I went to Cooper's school for his Easter egg hunt!   

On Friday, we stayed home and painted our Easter eggs!  Hadley picked out the crazy hair egg decorating kit, but Cooper wasn't on board.  He chose to decorate all of his eggs with Jesus crosses. ;)

Hadley got a little carried away with the dye.  Ha!

On Saturday, we went to Pebble Creek for a yummy breakfast and Easter Eggstravaganza!

 Then it was time for the egg hunts!

Cooper got the golden egg and was SO happy!

 On Sunday morning we headed to church to celebrate our risen Savior! Cooper and Hadley were both so interested in learning more about the Easter story this year.  It is such a blessing to be able to teach them about Jesus and see their little hearts seeking to learn more.  So blessed by our family!

Easter bunny fun!

Resurrection rolls for breakfast!

After church we spend the afternoon in Giddings with some friends.  Even though the weather was yucky, we enjoyed a relaxing afternoon!

Confetti eggs!

More egg hunting!

This cracked me up! He will do anything for candy.

Checking out their candy!
