My grilling men

I love watching Colton play, it's amazing how much he has changed in the last few months. How he is starting to "pretend" play. He likes to copy things that you do and I couldn't pass the chance up to get a few pics of him grilling with Daddy.

It's moments like these that I love so much!

TICKS!

My vent for the day: ticks!
What is going on with all the ticks this year? This past weekend we went around looking at some land to purchase. (Our house is under contract in only 6 days, amazing huh?) Between Rob, his dad and Mr. Smith there was 15 ticks on them...ridiculous! So I'm freaking out that Colton has some, luckily he didn't but needless to say, he had a long bath that night. The next day, yet again, we found another tick on Rob. ICK! So here we go again, I'm not afraid of many things but I HATE ticks, they are small, fast, mean little creatures. What is their purpose? According to the news, Mr. Smith said this is the worst they have ever seen them. I must say if we purchase this land it will be mostly cleared and sprayed and sprayed and sprayed.....did I mention sprayed for ticks! I guess I have been in the city for too long?

Zoo trip #1

I was looking forward so much to taking Colton to the zoo this year. He LOVES any type of animal, he points laughs and wants to love on them. So the Crims and Mangums headed off for our first trip to the zoo of the year and are planning on going back later in the summer when the lemurs are in.

 Loved the alligators until Rob scared him to death!

Having some "Ankle" Rob time.

Hanging out with the polar bears.

One of his favorites...

He got upset when we had to leave the bee.

Livy Doodle hanging out.

Happy Easter!

It's so great to celebrate that Jesus has risen! I hope everyone has had a Happy Easter! We've had such a blessed weekend. I think Colton has had a blast with all the events going on. You couldn't have asked for such a beautiful weekend.

He loves the eggs, "balls" as he calls them.

Ooo, The "Jelly Bean" trail.

I like the grass.

One day we will get a picture with us all looking?

After church service this morning and a quick nap in for Colton we headed over to get some lunch with the family. It was so pretty outside we couldn't pass it up. The breeze was great and decided to eat outside.

Enjoying lunch.

I love being able to go "home" and visit with family. One day maybe we will be able to move closer. Happy Easter!

Eggs

So we thought we would "try" to dye Easter eggs this year with Colton and needless to say....

He had to stick his hands in them!

So he got others to play with

And we waited

He got a little bored.

My little artist!

Look what I did! (Before it cracked...)

Hope everyone had fun dying Easter eggs!

Play date with The Craigs and Sheets!

We had a blast hanging with the gang and I had taken a few pictures of the boys I thought were cute! Cambo and Colt are so cute when the start having "conversations" together! 

I think we have a few basketball stars on our hands! Look at that form!
