On Friday night we got about 3 inches of snow!! The kids were outside first thing in the morning...all bundled up! Wade loves the snow..he told me it tastes like macaroni and cheese :) and Lila didn't last too long because she didn't want her mittens on.
Good thing we bought winter coats last week!
I have a feeling it's going to be hard to keep Wade inside this winter...he loves the snow!!
Faith's steer that she showed at Harrison County Fair...she did a great job! She won her division and also Champion Showmanship...quite the accomplishment for her first year!
Luke thinks Lila looks alot like Wade in this picture. She's turning into such a fun little girl...she's never far from her brother and likes all the things he does! I'm still hoping there's baby dolls and girly things in her future!!
I love my sister so much that I like to squeeze her as hard as I can....eekkkk!
Wade's favorite....the ducks!!
Grandpa, is that candy for you or Wade?!?!
Lila catching a quick nap during the parade...we're not quite sure how she managed that with all the loud noises (she's not a very sound sleeper!!).
Grandma Ruth making a special stop to drop off yummy candy for the kids!
There's a little dirt pile by the landing of our deck that Wade enjoys playing with his loaders and tractors in. Once in awhile he even lets Lila join in to play. (And yes, Wade has no shorts on...he hasn't quite mastered that he needs to put his pants back on after he goes potty...we'll work on that one :)
Needless to say, Luke never caught a fish. It was quite a sight watching him get around in this boat!
Bye, bye Daddy
The slide is super fast...it's been fun to watch all the adults try it out!
Lila's new favorite spot...the swing! The first night we got it up she sat in the swing for over a hour!
Our little monkey has already mastered the rock wall!
Happy Birthday to You! Lila's first cake attempt didn't go so well so after a nap we did a "do-over!" Needless to say she was a much happier girl :)
Lila's fancy Luau Cake
Hmmm.....I'm not so sure about this.
Where's Lila? Faith, Allysen and Wade digging in on Lila's leftover cake!
I gotcha ya! We lucked out and had great weather despite the weathermen saying there was a chance of rain all weekend.
Wheeee! 
The men went around the neighborhood playing bocce ball.
Thanks to everyone for helping us celebrate Lila's 1st birthday!
We've been busy outside with planting flowers and watering...lucky me, I have 2 helpers!! Wade helps me plant and Lila likes to dig things up (aka eat dirt!).
We had temperatures in the upper 80's this week so we spent lots of time outside. Wade and Lila had many visits to the park, farm and even went swimming at Grandma and Grandpa Plumb's! We all can't wait for this weather to stick around for good.
Vroomm, vrooomm Wade!
Dozer got in on the fun as well :)
We got a walker for Lila so she could get around outside. Surprisingly she scoots around the driveway pretty quickly despite having no interest in learning to walk!
Easter weekend started off with a bang. Wade woke up Friday morning with his eyes crusted shut. He had pink eye and an ear infection! When I got home from the doctor with Wade, Lila also had pink eye!! Luckily it had cleared by Sunday so no else got it!
Hunting Easter Eggs. Wade wasn't too interested...he would find one and say "All done!" He wanted to play with his new toys instead.
The Easter Bunny left gifts by the door!
Tim, Katie, Hannah and Luke at Easter Vigil. Congrats Tim!
We had a very busy birthday weekend....
On Wade's actual birthday (Sunday) we celebrated with our family. All of Luke's family and my parents celebrated with cake and ice cream. I think Wade blew out the candles at least 5 times!! Wade had a great time and had fun playing with his counsins, Faith and Allysen.
Wade, Faith, Lila and Allysen checking out the cake.
Preparing for the Lazy River...don't I look cute??!!
On Saturday we braved the weather and headed to an Easter Egg Hunt!! The weather was horrible, the whole hunt only lasted 10 minutes! Luckily, Wade's name was drawn and he won the grand prize. It was a big Easter basket filled with lots of Army trucks, planes and candy.
When we got home we colored Easter eggs for the first time! Wade was a big helper...he liked dipping his fingers in all of the colors so he ended up with greenish brown looking fingers! I think 3 out of the 6 eggs have already been smooshed!
I think it's safe to say that Lila loves corn on the cob!
