Trip to Grandma and Grandpa Hudsons House







My grandparents have the most amazing garden and I'm so thankful that I was able to get some pictures of it this year. Very few people have a green thumb and the ability to grow a garden like this. Actually, I think it's a dying art and a garden like this is hard to find now days. For many years, they have been growing the most amazing garden vegetables. Noah was on a visit to TX during our visit to Grandparents house, so that's why Noah isn't in any of the pics. I also photographed Reid and cousin Karson in one of my grandpa's old vintage pick-up trucks. It was a fun day and these photos are priceless!

Big Wheel Rally


Noah completed his first year of Preschool at Warm World. He will be moving on from being a Caterpiller to being a "Monarch" Butterfly next year. At the end of the year, the school hosted a Big Wheel Rally. All the kids got to bring their big wheel and ride around a track. Of course, Noah thought it was a race and was asked to slow down several times. Can you imagine that? He acted like he owned the course. Hard to believe I know!!

M&M Olympics




Noah took a stab at gymnastics this year and he was a superstar. This talent runs deep within his blood. He's a chip off the old block! Flips and Handstands come easy for him and mommy is not "the block"! At the end of the year, they had a special performance called M&M Olympics. He got to show off all of his new moves. It was awesome. Rod and I were so proud of our little olympian.

Easter Egg Hunt







We had an "informal" Easter Egg hunt at my parent's house the Saturday before Easter. I say "informal" so that everyone knows that this was not my boys Easter outfits. Who else would care to point that out except for me? :) It's all about the outfit, right? They actually did wear something nice on Easter Sunday, but I don't think we got any pictures that day. Shame on me! I've come to realize that with 3 boys in the house, I'm going to be the only one who really cares about what I wear for Easter. It's just not going to happen...No pastel dress for mom, matching tie for dad, and matching shirts for the boys. Ugh..I'm not a foo foo girl anyway..the Lord knew that it was probably best that I have 2 boys! ;)

Little boy big hose




Reid had some fun with the waterhose. I'm guessing that the temperature was probably around 75 degrees. Notice that he's wearing a long sleeved shirt and boots..there was probably a reason for that. It was all fun and games until he sprayed himself in the face. Poor J-Bird..isn't that the saddest face?

Muddy Waters







Mom had to have a little knee surgery, so super dad stepped up the plate once again. He let the boys go wild in the mud in the backyard. They had a blast. Isn't that a little boys dream?

The Soccer Star




Noah has been playing soccer this season at Crossings Church. He was super excited to play until the first game rolled around, then he wasn't so sure. It was his first experience with organized sports and he was a little nervous. On the morning of his first game, he insisted that he was NOT going to play and that he just wanted to sit on the bench. Low and behold once we got him on the field..he scored the first goal for the team. That was all it took. Now he's excited for every game.
