Easter 2011

Beth is petting a pig at Palmer's Spring Day event...she really wants a pig.

Beth with our friend Christi....these are two peas in a pod....what a great combo.
They are petting baby chicks too...she would take a chick too!!!

Beth and Daddy after the country club easter egg hunt...that was fun!!!

Best workplace ever - they threw me a surprise baby shower last week...
you can  tell b/c i have on my glasses and no makeup!!!  Oh well - it was a blast....
we got lots of diapers and wipes - much needed in a week or two.

Beth is practicing what to do when cole arrives...by putting Sugar in the swing...
I think she is going to be such a good helper when he arrives.

Proof that we dyed easter eggs.

She did really good...and i think she had some fun!!!

She is making "soup" at Ome Sonnenberg's house for Easter.

And hunting easter eggs with Opa and Daddy pointing out where to find some.

The best part - opening the eggs with Ome Sonnenberg -
discovering the little prizes and candies.

A new tradition - borrowed from John's mom...
we make an Easter rabbit nest out of hay the night before and put carrots in it.
Then the bunny eats the carrots and leaves the Easter gift the next morning....
I love this idea - Sally (NENE) is awesome!!!!

And the bunny left purple sunglasses and binoculars for the prize.

Sugar is trying to steal some eggs from Beth's basket.

Dad and Beth after a fun Easter egg hunt.

Almost Easter!!!!

We busted out the swimsuit last week and set up a sprinkler beach ball...Beth loves the water.

For any parents out there...this $10 beach ball thing is well worth the money.

They had donkey basketball this week at Ballinger High School...
It was a fundraiser for FFA (good idea for anyone looking for a fundraiser)
and it was hilarious!!!!

I knew i loved teaching in Ballinger...but the kids just get better and better.
My pre-cal class made me a diaper cake this week - too cute!!!!

New Puppy & I got a C for Cole

Beth is holding our new puppy "Sugar" on the back porch.
She is a mini-weenie dog - cutest thing ever....and Beth carries her everywhere.
Best "toy" we have bought her.

And my mom got me a "C" from our hobby lobby in San Angelo - they finally restocked...
so woohoo - his name is no longer 'ole...so put away your sombreros.

Here is one last look at his room before he gets here - only about 4 more weeks - maybe less.

Yes - she is naked and learned how to turn on the facet "full blast" to make a "sprinkler".
We have real sprinklers...but she managed to do this while i was cooking supper...and i looked out and thought...
thank goodness we live in the country - or i would be in trouble for this.

Yep - still playing with the faucet.

This is  just a cute little outfit that i had to take a picture of before she stains it.
I just love her so much....how life will change when Cole arrives.
