Spring time.......

I love Spring!  The new growth, the babies, the sunny and warmer weather!  This is my favorite time of year and with it come's new goal's to reach.  This is my New Year Resolution time!  As most of you know, Nick did not get accepted into Nurse Practioner school at MUW this go around.  Although he did miss the deadline for UMC, we both have decided that it would be best for him to try out of state schools.  Among them are AR, SC, NC, LA, and TN.  We know the obstacles with out of state schooling but we are prepared to face them.  We have decided that Mississippi and Alabama are very competitive for advanced schooling so therefore he is gonna try his hand out of state.  Please continue to pray for him. 

Blake is growing like a weed.  He continues to fight his allergy shots but once he is stuck and given a sucker he has already forgotten about them.  I think they have made a world of difference!  Easter came and went so fast.  Mother and daddy came up and enjoyed the weekend with us and Kristi's family.  We did birthday stuff for me, Kristi and Daddy.  Saturday we dyed easter eggs, and let me tell ya, it was a mess.  Blake was more interested in putting his hands in they dye then actually coloring the eggs.  He thought throwing them was more fun.  LOL!! I won't ever forget that yaw!  Saturday afternoon after the kids nap's we hid and hunted the eggs.  Blake wasn't to interested and we actually had to show them where they were.  Either way it was a BLAST!  Sunday morning we got up and Blake was excited to see what the easter bunny had left him.  Other then the grass left everywhere, he was interested in everything in his basket.  We then went over to Kristi's house and had a big breakfast.  Mother and daddy got off fine, around mid afternoon and we hated to see them go.  We ended Easter weekend with MiMi, Grandmama and Grandaddy.  Blake had a ball going through baskets left for him and of coarse playing outside.  It was a busy weekend but the memories will last forever!!

We are in the process of planning Blake's birthday.  He will be 2 and every bit a 2 year old toddler.  We will have it at our house again this year.  It was a good time last year (other then the rain) so we thought that we would give it another whirl.  I tried my hands at a cake last year but we have decided to let a bakery do it this year.  Let's put it this way....I was not meant to be a baker. LOL!  We can't wait though, to get everyone together again.  Well, I think I have covered everything.  Hope everyone is doing well.  Love yaw!
