Match Maker

We had dinner with the Garreds Friday. The kids love playing together and Abby is especially partial to little Eli. They are exactly, and I mean exactly, two months apart. They were born in the same delivery room and had the same delivery nurse. When we went to visit Krystal and Eli at the hospital Krystal and I had were wearing the same t-shirt. Yeah, weird I know.

Betrinarian

We took Lilly to the vet last week for a check-up and it inspired Anne. She wants to become a "Betrinarian" (veterinarian, all v sounds are replaced with the b sound in Anne language and some sounds she leaves out all together) when she grows up. Anne tried to practice her new skills on Lilly, but she would have none of it. So her stuffed animals fell victim to many doses of medicine and lots and lots of shots. If needles make you queasy you might want to avoid the next picture.

Anne is planning on being an Aggie vet of course.

The Easter Bunny Came Early

The Easter Bunny came a bit early to our home. Gran and Grandpa came for a visit last weekend and brought a few Easter eggs along with them. Gran hid them in the Great Room Friday night so Anne and Abby could go hunting Saturday morning. We would have hid them outside, but the weather was yuck!

Anne had a ball looking and hiding the eggs. Abby got into the action as well. She found a few on her own and Anne was willing to donate a few from her hoard to baby sister.

After egg hunting we went to lunch at Newk's and then to Discovery Science Place. Anne showed Gran and Grandpa all the exhibits and Abby demonstrated a few as well. It was a wonderful weekend.




I hope you noticed the giant half moon of drool on Abby's pj's. It's her favorite accessory.

G. Grandma Turns 12 . . . . again!

Last week Great Grandma and Uncle Clark came to Tyler to celebrate GG's birthday! We ate dinner at Oliveta, yummmeee, and then went back tour house for cake and presents. The girls love GG. A week doesn't go by that Anne doesn't ask to go fishing at GG's.

Growing up, I spent a lot of time with GG. Every summer Chad, my cousins, sometimes Joe (Chad's childhood friend), and I would spend a week living it up at GG's. We fished, made forts, worked in the garden, beautified the surrounding area, played Putt Putt, went to the movies, and generally went wild. Now that I have kids of my own I am impressed with Grandma's willingness to keep us so long. I might even question her sanity :) All that to say

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRAAAANNNNDDDMMMMAAA!
