Beach Fun

Time to play a little catch up...again! 

One of my favorite things about where we live, is that we get to enjoy our first beach days of the season in March/April! I'm so excited about our beach days this year, as Layla is at a much better age. She LOVES the sand/water, and is perfectly content to spend hours on end there.

The beginning of last month we met some friends at the beach for our first official beach day of the summer.

 It's safe to say Layla had a good time :)

 I had no intention of any of us getting in the water, being that it was so early in the season. Eli had other plans, though!

These two bathing beauties had lots of fun together.

And this one was exhausted from playing so hard!

Last Day

Eli finished up his first year of preschool last week. It was bittersweet, as we'll definitely miss our friends and routine there, but we are also very ready for the laid back days of summer! We're so thankful the Lord lead us to this school in particular, and we're looking forward to another wonderful year there next year. One more year, and this boy is off to kindergarten. So hard to believe!

They had a little end of school program last Thursday, and the kids were able to show off some things that they learned throughout the year. Daddy, Nana and GG came to watch, and Eli was so tickled to see them!

 Eli's class sang a colors song in Spanish, and said the pledge of allegiance. 

Bless his sweet teachers. There were 14 boys in his class, and only 3 girls. 

Mother's Day 2013

My sweet family made this such a special Mother's Day. We spent the day in Savannah together on Saturday. Shopping for mommy, lunch together, and lots of play time for the kiddos. 

They sure did love their carousel ride! A trip to Savannah wouldn't be complete without this.

We actually had time for pictures before church on Sunday, a true Mother's Day miracle!

Mama's don't make it into many pictures, so we had to change that today.

So thankful for the four wonderful years of motherhood this little guy has given to me!

 And for the sweetness that this little girl has added to our lives!

We had GG and Goomba over for dinner Sunday evening. We missed Nana and Pop Pop so much. They brought a nasty bug home the Dominican Republic, so they stayed home to rest. 

 After dinner, the guys watched golf for hours. GG and I sat outside with the kids and enjoyed the gorgeous weather.

Layla loves this little chair. She can't get out of it so easily, so she just sits forever. :)

We are loving our new neighborhood and friendly neighbors. Eli spends most of his time outside playing with friends, and has made the sweetest friendships already. Something he was never able to do at our old house. That in itself makes this move so worth it!
