Easter 2015...

Easter was this past Sunday and Adam had to work so Marley and I went to Grammy and Pop's for the weekend.  

We had so much fun!  

We met Aunt Lauren and Uncle Randall at Ninfa's for lunch on Friday where Marley discovered that she too loves their green sauce.  (That girl loves dip!)

She  played "games" with Pops on his ipad before bed.  (He was really looking at plumbing stuff but she was sure it was a "game"!

On Saturday Marley, Grammy and I went shopping and then ate lunch at Chili's.  When we went to leave, Marley yelled all the way through the restaurant, "Bye strangers!  Bye strangers!"  What?!  Where did this girl come from...she is too much!  We were dying and I'm pretty sure the other customers were cracking up!

For dinner we met Grandmama and Grandpapa Nix for pizza.  Marley had so much fun!  She loved stacking croutons with Grandmama and picking flowers in the parking lot.

Then that afternoon we went to Aunt Alex and Uncle Robert's house to play with cousin Madrid.  Madrid and Marley are only a week apart in age and they were adorable playing together!

The next morning we got up and went to church with Grammy, Pops, Aunt Lauren and Uncle Randall...whom for some reason was "Aunt Randall" all weekend.  (Let's just say we all enjoyed it, but I'm not sure he did.)  After church we hunted eggs in Grammy's house and checked out what the Easter bunny brought her.

When Marley and I got home on Sunday evening I was in the kitchen unpacking when I here Marley run into the living room hollering, "Mommy look!"  She was running in circles and I realized that she had the potty seat around her waist.  I was dying...she is just too much!  

At least once a day she makes me want to cry and at least once a day she makes me crack up!

This past weekend we were able to go to East Texas and visit with Adam's family.  We had so much fun.  We spent one night with Pawpaw Kraig and Grammy Carol.  Marley had a blast riding the bike that Pawpaw Kraig found for her, playing with chalk from Grammy, chasing Peanut and playing in her cardboard castle!

Then we got to spend a night with Gran and Pappa Latham.  This was our first weekend to see their new lake house!  It was beautiful!  Marley loved waving at the boats, running down to the pier, eating Cheetoh's with Aunt Tracie and Emma and riding her horsey!

We can't wait to go back this summer and play in the lake!

Spring Break 2015...

This was the first Spring Break since I've been married that I stayed home the entire time.  It was wonderful!  I don't normally get to spend my time off at my own house and it was so relaxing!  

Mom and Lauren came down for 2 days and we went shopping and then on Wednesday Marley, Adam and I met one of my very best friends for lunch and let the kids play.  Marley had a blast!  I love seeing her around other kids.  She definitely never meets a stranger!

One night we decided to go get a cupcake from Dimples just for fun.  Marley was so excited and was hollering, "cupcakes!" all the way there!  We got our cupcakes and then the minute we sat down and tried to give her a bite and she gave a very adamant, "No!"  She would not take a bite...at all!  What a weirdo!

On Saturday Adam and I had a wedding reception to attend so Marley spent the night with Grammy and Pops.  Aunt Lauren and Grammy took Marley to the Mayborn Museum in Waco and she loved it.  Of course she had to do a little shopping in the museum gift shop and came out with 2 books and a donkey.  Yep...I said donkey!  

Overall we had a great week and I can't wait until next year's Spring Break!

snow days...

In the past week we have had 3 snow days.  They were  Marley's first snow days that she could actually enjoy.  Unfortunately, Adam was out of town for all three, but we made the best of it. 

Of course my child would just want to "wipe it".  She was so worried about her chair in the backyard that was completely covered in snow.  When the snow was coming down really hard she kept saying, "bubbles!"  Sure...whatever.  

I bundled her up and wrapped her hands in plastic wrap (I don't know what made me think she would actually touch it!).  She didn't want to go back inside, but she by no means wanted to touch it.
