Cowgirl Museum

Our first stop on the Fort Worth adventure tour was to the Cowgirl Museum.

The Science museum is closed right now so part of their exhibits are housed in the cowgirl museum.

Grandma Gampe's Visit

My Grandma Gampe, Cliff, Great Aunt Kay, and Great Uncle Denny came to visit for a week. We had a wonderful time exploring the sites in the area. They arrived on Easter, so we had a nice dinner together with Alycia and her family. We spent the rest of the day playing games and the kids bounced their Great Great Aunt Kay on the trampoline.

Family Egg Hunt

Every year we have an egg hunt with the Nelsons. The kids are so fun to watch on their search for eggs.

Egg Citement!

We died eggs with the Nelsons. Carter died his hand yellow, but other than that, the kids didn’t make too much of a mess. They died 2 ½ dozen eggs in record time.

Easter Baskets

The Easter Bunny comes to our house the Saturday before Easter. The Nelsons spent the night since their house was in shambles due to their upcoming move. John, Sam’s brother, also spent the night since he had just flown in from Oregon. The kids woke up early and ate chocolate for breakfast and then played with their new toys. Blake and Gavin even made a ramp for their mini skateboards. I got up to take a few pictures and then went back to bed. Poor John was on the couch, so the kids harassed him. At a normal hour we all got up and Nick made his famous Texas French Toast.

Soccer?

Renée hasn’t really grasped the concept of soccer. In her defense she is probably the youngest girl in the league because of the cut off date. She does enjoy it and tells us that her favorite part is when she gets to kick the ball. That doesn’t mean she will run after the ball to try to kick it, but if it is passing by she might stick her foot out. We usually have to yell at her to get out of the net and pay attention. I took the team photo and did individual shots for each girl.

Crawford Farms Easter Egg Hunt

We had so much fun at the Crawford Farms Easter Egg Hunt. They had an egg hunt of course, which took all of two seconds. Carter got to be in the 2 and under section and he got some loot there. All the other babies weren’t too into it, but Carter had a great time running around collecting eggs. The kids got to sit on the Easter Bunny’s lap. Crawford Farms was also having a fitness expo. Fitness 2000’s Zumba girls were there. Carter and Renée jumped right in and danced. Carter was so funny because he was so little compared to everyone else out there. There was a Three Legged Race and an egg on a spoon race. Renée didn’t know where to go, so she ran circles around the chair marking the spot they were supposed to turn around. Flips for Fun, a local gymnastics gym, set up mats and a spring board. We discovered that Carter loves gymnastics. All the kids were in a line and Carter would take a turn, then another kid took a turn, and then Carter took a turn, and then another kid took a turn, and then Carter took a turn. You get the idea. All the kids just let him do it. Looking a year younger than you are has some advantages.

Gavin's April 4th Game

Gavin is loving soccer this season. I am loving photographing his and Renée’s games. I have made myself the unofficial team photographer and have made blogs for the other parents to get their child’s pictures. They are on the sidebar if you are interested.
