Teacher Appreciation Week

Typically, I purchase one larger gift for Teacher Appreciation Week, but this year I decided to do a little something for every day instead.  They seemed to like it and enjoyed seeing what their goody would be for the day.

Filled with nail polish, clippers, toe separators, etc.

A journal and a pen

A reusable water bottle....by far, a favorite.  All three teachers seem to bring this and use it daily

Phone Dump --- 2 (or 3) months in Pics

If I've already shared some of this, my apologies....since I only post once in a blue moon, I can't remember what I have or have not shared :)

That being said, I just downloaded a lot of pics from my phone from the past few months...

How cute are they?!  She really does think they want to be her BFF.

I think this was Easter weekend...but can't remember for sure.  I let Olivia get her first real pedicure.  She usually just sits in the chair and gets her nails painted, but I went ahead and let her get the whole works. She loved it. 

We went to Build-A-Bear for the first time and purchased a ridiculously priced bunny she named "Sophie"...complete with princess clothes, an everyday outfit, shoes, panties, bows, a crown....you get the picture. 

Cute little gardener...

Jason and I ran our first mud race.  The obstacles were hard (i.e....tall...and I'm scared of heights!) but we had a really good time and would definitely do one again. 

What?!  He doesn't look like he had fun to you??? ;)

Olivia is the proud new owner of that large diamond she's been wanting....

Shared this one to tell you....well, that she's just adorable. Man, I love this child.

I took Olivia with me to a Mary Kay party.  She loved it. 

And is now an expert at makeup application. 

Jason and I went on a segway tour.  Apparently it's something middle-to-old aged couples do...as we were the youngest by at least 20 years, but we had fun anyway!  If you get the chance to do it, go for it.  It really was fun. 

We had a date night too -- which never ever happens!  Date day and date night?!  Yep - pretty much never!

Memorial Day we headed to the zoo....followed by Trader Joe's....naps...and to a gathering at a friends house for food, swimming and fellowship.  It was a nice day!

So there you have it.....my phone pics for the past couple of months.  

March, April, May....

Well, I've been MIA for a couple of months...

I guess 4 years of blogging finally caught up to me!  So...let me try to re-cap the past 2 months in one little post.

Let's see....

We got to hang out with a live Easter bunny this year!  That was fun!

Easter was pretty low key this year.  I have more pics....from egg hunts and such...but, since I'm cramming in 2 months into one post, I'll spare you! :) 

Jason had his 34th birthday, so Olivia and I threw him a little party. 

The bluebonnet season in North Texas was less than impressive this year. I think my friends out East made out a lot better than we did in the West!  Nonetheless, I insisted on attempting to get a few pics. 

My sister-in-law Emily got married the first weekend of May.  It was a casual event but we had a good time!

And yesterday was Mother's Day....we spent it going to church, napping and then having dinner at Gram E's house (followed by a trip to TCBY....yummy!).

I'm going to try my best to keep up a little more --- at least  biweekly posts!!!!!
