"Guys Outing" & Little Lilah

The day of Tigist's bridal shower, all the boys (and Lilah) went out to play.  They went to the Old Roswell Mill.  

Looks like Vincent is throwing a rock.

Careful...it is haunted!





Daddy with his babies!

Stevie, a friend of Vincent's, had his mom at the bridal shower and he got to escape with the boys!  (He is such a sweet kid.)

Blowing Bubbles

One afternoon Lilah decided to blow bubbles with her brother.  (They had a good time!  We didn't stay outside too long due to the awful pollen.)  Here are some of the pictures I took.

We opened our pool early this year.  Our pool guy said that with how hot is has been our pool will turn green if we don't get it opened within a couple of weeks.  So, we opened it and Lilah loves to swim in it even though it is COLD!  One day she even tricked Daddy and said it was warm.  He was shocked when he jumped in and felt how "warm" it really was!


Playing at the neighborhood park!


Wyatt thinks he cannot be seen if he closes his eyes.


Blow kisses


Wyatt was ignoring Daddy so he could watch TV.  (I think he was watching the lotto drawing.  The colorful balls and fancy music distract him.)

Easter Saturday

The Kroger near our home hosted (along with other businesses) an Easter Egg Hunt, Entertainment, Giveaways, and more the Saturday before Easter.  It was awesome!  They did a fantastic job of putting it together!  (Maybe I loved it so much is because Matt and I won SEVERAL free massages from the massage place in the Kroger shopping center! Just sayin...)  Lilah had a great time and so did Wyatt!  Kara and my mom joined us for this festive morning!  The day was perfect!  Not too hot, not too cold and sunny!  
Later in the day Matt, the kids, my mom and I went to Old Roswell Mill for a small hike.  It was so pretty and peaceful!  I love being out there.  Wyatt rode on Daddy's shoulders the entire time!  (I'd have died after the first slight hill!  He is such an amazing dad!)
ALL of this was FREE!


HOPPY Easter!

Mr. Cool Guy!

Deciding what to have painted on her face is a hard choice!



Beautiful Butterfly!!


Cheese!

W: WHO IS THIS?!
L: SHH! SMILE!  We get a stuffed bunny after this!

Lilah got a white bunny (Wyatt got blue) from the Easter Bunny!

Hula-hoop contest!!

Lilah's sand art star

Getting ready to hunt for eggs!


Wyatt found some!  So did Lilah!  
Wyatt picked up an egg and threw it - it hit Li on the head, but it didn't slow her down one bit from stuffing those eggs in her bag!


He is so excited!  
W:  Which one do I pick up?!  I only have two hands, Mom!


I ended up holding a few for the little guy!

She got a bag full (and so did all the other kids!)







Yay!  ALL DONE!

Let's see what you got! 

Daddy and Son!  So cute!


LOOK!!  WE GOT TONS!



PARK TIME!
It is so beautiful here!  You can hear the rushing water the entire time on the trail.


Walking/Running on the bridge over the water...about to start "hiking" on the trail.



Run away baby!  Wyatt just loved going up and down this bridge.
When we first got to the park, there was a bridal party (the ladies) taking pictures.  The background is so gorgeous!  All the ladies looked beautiful.


Shoulder time for Wy!


Wyatt loved it when Matt would run and hop and "throw" him around.



Lilah would run ahead to Daddy and Wy and then come back to my mom and me.





Lilah and Nana


A water fall that was made in order to power the cotton mill that once was along this river.  It dates back to before the civil war.  Ghosts are said to haunt the building that still remain, but are closed up to keep people out.  Ghost tours can be taken to hear the history and see/hear the ghosts.


Getting a closer look at the water fall.


Cheese! 


Nana, me and the kids.


Wyatt wants me to let go so he can go running.

My mom and me

After our hike...still alive!
