Lena's "Bunny Hop" Dance

Brian and Avery attended this, this past weekend - a dinner date at Rafter's beforehand, and then a night filled with dancing, candy, the Easter bunny, and lots of little giggly girls and their Daddies :)

Old Pictures

What we learned by looking at old pictures and watching old video's awhile ago:

1. Our kids have grown up wayyyy too quickly - especially Bryton, we watched a video of him in the bathtub where I was pretending to bite his toes, and he kept saying "Again" over and over, in his sweet 'lil toddler voice.
2. Many people lied to us, telling us Avery was cute from age 3 mo. - 1 yr. Brian and I got many good laughs out of how so not cute she actually was!
3. I change my hairstyle and color a lot.
4. There are special family members who are gone, whom we have many great memories of....
5. Our family prefers the out of doors, based on the big smiles in the pictures taken there!
6. Our house in Lena has been a wonderful home to raise our kids in, and we will miss it if/when we sell.
7. My years as a stay-at-home Mom, when the kids were very small, are ones I am very thankful for.
