Our trip to Ohio in 3 post

The week after New Year's we took our Christmas trip up North. I can't begin to tell you how excited I was that there was NO snow, barely even on the ground, until 5 miles from the In-Laws house (gotta love living in the "Lake effect snow area"). Even then, there wasn't much. We could still see the ground in some places...However, that didn't last long. Our first full day there, we decided to take the kids Ice Skating. Jess has been a few times, but the younger three had never been. I will say they all LOVED it.

I especially love this next picture because you can almost see how fast Sean's little feet were moving.

The skaters!

P.S. I have a video that I am going to try to upload later.

Remember this? Seems the boys get their dance moves from their big sister!

Look how they've grown!

Two years ago, we went to Boone, NC to celebrate the graduation of Christine Pierce and Chelsea Miller. This year we went back to celebrate the graduation of Evalyn Pierce and Danielle Pierce. We took a picture the first time we were there that I fell in love with, so this year we had to recreate the moment to compare.

Strawberry Pickin'

Friday morning I met up with some friends to go Strawberry picking. Since the girls were in school, it was just 3 mommies and their boys. They all had a great time.

However, the first thing the boys spotted was the tractors boy were they in heaven to just stand next to it!

Then the chickens...

...and the pigs, they admired form afar!

Finally, time for some strawberry pickin'!
and boy did they look yummy!

Owen was proud of his strawberry!


Sean found some good ones, too!


Brotherly Love! It just melts my heart!

Not even halfway there! Keep Pickin'

Some Family Pictures!

Hello! Have you missed me? Well, let me catch up by showing you some family pictures taken Easter weekend.

Debi, this one is just for you...

Easter 2010

Two post in one day...what is this world coming to?

A tradition from Scott's family, the Easter bunny does a "Treasure Hunt" for the basket. There is no telling where that silly Bunny will had your basket from year to year!

Here is Delaney reading her own clue! This is the first year she has been able to do that, and boy was she proud of herself!

Sean looking hard for a clue


Owen thinks he has one!

Jess was way too quick with her clues...Easter Bunny is going to have to make it harder next year for her. Here she is checking out her loot.

We went to Aunt Karen and Uncle DD's for lunch. David, cooked a wonderful lunch of grilled Chicken.

David took Jess for a ride around the block on the bike...




Delaney got a ride around the yard...




...and the boys? Well, they got to sit on it! This mama is not quite ready for that...




The kids wanted to go for a wagon ride, so in true "redneck" fashion, my redneck BIL took them for one....


When David was done, they weren't! So daddy made a trip around the yard!


When Daddy was done, they still weren't...so Jess made a few trips around, however, she was MUCH smarter than David and Daddy!
