Wingo Wabbit Easter Eggstravaganza

I was so excited that I was going to be around for the yearly Wingo egg hunt this year. On Good Friday it rained all day and the email came through that the hunt was cancelled. I was so bummed. Luckily a few of us decided to get together and do an egg hunt inside if the weather did not permit. Imagine our surprise when it stopped raining just in time to let the kids run wild in the mud outside. Unfortunately Natalie couldn't undo the cancellation for the masses but we sure were glad we got to have a Mini Wingo Wabbit Egg Hunt! Isaiah was so funny looking for eggs. He didn't care how many he got. He would find an egg, open it, explore its' contents and then decide if he wanted to keep it or not. If he liked what he saw it went in the basket, if not it went back on the ground. He cracks me up! Owen was off roadin'! Isaiah got in on the fun with the big girls. They were playing Peter Pan. Ramsey was watching for Tinkerbell while Lola was on the look out for Captain Hook. Thanks Wingos for hosting such an "eggcellent" event!

Flashbacks, Friends and Fun

In March we worked in a little play date to celebrate Natalie's spring break! It was such a fun day. We visited the park in the neighborhood Natalie and I grew up in. We lived two doors down from each other and were neighbors for 20+ years. I have so enjoyed being back in Memphis and watching Isaiah make some memories with the Stiles and Wingo kids. It brings back so many memories of the "good ol days"!

Tater Head

Isaiah loves Toy Story and he loves his "tater heads". He loves to put them together and decorate our built in bookshelves with them. On this day he was super proud of his work and he staged them on the stairs begging me to take his picture. He even posed. This rarely happens. Meet Mister tater head and Woody tater head! I love these simple days around the house with my little buddy.

Meeting James Bryant

After four long months of waiting, we FINALLY got to meet James Bryant and spend time with Bubba and Amber. Bryant sure is a sweet baby and he is very easy going (nothing like his older cousin at that age)! I got in lots of sweet snuggle time. Isaiah was a little jealous of all the attention but luckily my lap is big enough for both of these sweet boys. I am so happy for my little brother and really impressed with all the work he puts in to help Amber out. They are great parents and really complement each other well. Looking forward to watching "Bo and Luke Duke" grow up together (if only we could get them a little closer to Memphis)! Isaiah meeting Bryant and giving him sweet kisses. Good thing Cappy has a big enough lap too. Isaiah wasn't about to let Bryant get more Cappy time than him. After a few days in Memphis we headed to Arkansas for some family time at the Roost. Amber was the winner of the weekend. She caught the biggest fish! It made for some good eatin'! Family portrait time!

The Circus Came to Town

On a cold rainy night we found out that the Shriner's Circus was going to be in town. We went on opening night which was a weeknight so we could beat the crowds. Lucky for us we bumped in to our sweet friends the Stiles'. Isaiah was so excited to see Owen and Ella. He and Owen even had a little dance session on the bleachers behind us. I loved watching the people on the flying trapeze. It was my favorite. Isaiah kept saying "ohhhhhh" and "weeeeee". The elephants were by far Isaiah's favorite. Can I get a ROLL TIDE?! What a fun night.

Monster Trucks

Back in February (yes, I am that far behind!) Isaiah had a guys night out! PawPaw D, Uncle Dave, Daddy and Isaiah headed to the Fed Ex Forum to see the monster truck rally. I'm pretty sure he had an awesome time because 2 months later he still talks about it! Isaiah is one loved little dude! I know we are both looking forward to another guys night out! :-)
