Easter 2011

I know Easter was a few months ago, but better late than never.  For Easter we went camping with our friends the Bells at Cooper Lake.  My friend, Holly, found us a great spot right on the lake with our own beach.  The kids found tons of things to do and we had a relaxing time.

There were TONS of ladybugs at the site.  This is what they caught in just a few minutes.

 

Dyson, Jessica and Ali lined up their chairs to watch the sunset.

Birds of a feather...

Jessica's Tap Costume

Jessica has her dance recital this weekend. She will be doing a tap routine to The Good Ship Lollipop. It is so cute. Here she is in her costume.

Lake Ray Roberts with Scouts

Caleb's Cub Scout Pack went camping at Lake Ray Roberts this weekend. We weren't able to camp due to commitments on Fri night and Sun so we drove out just for the day Sat. The kids went swimming in the lake. It was so cold I don't know how they could stand it! Both of them were so exhausted they fell asleep in the car on the way home, took a 4 hour nap, and then went back to bed around 10pm. I'm thinking they had fun.

Caleb and his friend Douglas. They are in the same class and we are happy Doug joined Scouts.

Jessica and her friend Chloe. They will start Kindergarten together in the fall.

Is is cold, Caleb?

Come to me little fish, come to me.

Spring Break Campout

For the first half of Spring Break we went camping with friends at Lake Ray Roberts. It is just north of Denton. Marc and I enjoyed hanging out with our friends and the kids enjoyed getting dirty with theirs.

Winter Program

Jessica's school put together a performance for the parents this weekend. They sang several songs, did a dance, Caleb played a piano piece, and two of the after-school girls did a traditional Indian dance.

Jessica cried for mommy during most of the performance.

Receiving a trophy at the end helped.

The two girls that danced at the end. It was a beautiful dance with gorgeous costumes.

More Snow!

We had another day of snow. Fortunately this time the kids only missed one day of school instead of 4.

Caleb plans a surprise attack!

Marc seeks revenge

Jessie just kept eating the snow. I'll need to get snowcone syrup for next year.

Marc made a mini-snowman family.
