Easter and More

This is somewhat of a hodgepodge post so forgive me in advance. We had a low key Easter with a few egg hunts and outings with friends. Easter Sunday we boiled shrimp after church with my parents and Matt's mom, aunt, and brother. We are just blessed with what we have. Man, I can just tear up thinking about what we have to be thankful for. Too often, we get caught up in the American way of "bigger and better". I've just been humbled these past couple of weeks. Just be thankful for your blessings, be it big or small. Just some food for thought, that's all!

We let Jake and Landry Grace fall asleep together for the first time last week. They were thrilled about doing this. Little things.

Landry Grace sporting the old school dress with her name cross-stitched on the front. Pretty sure Mom had the exact same dress for me in the 80's.
Landry Grace and Jake before their school Easter egg hunts. Matt went with Jake to his and I took LG to hers.
The Thursday before Easter I met up with some of my high school classmates. Actually, we all go back to elementary school together. We met up at Raw and talked for 3 hours. Could've talked more but bedtime was calling. What a fun evening!
Jake's current OBSESSION is with caterpillars. He found this one at a birthday party last week and named it "Rockstar".
She is ALL girl. Rocking the heels at the pool the entire time. She had little interest in getting in. The water is still a little chilly for her.
Easter morning. I hate that we didn't take more pictures. This is my all-time favorite dress of Landry Graces'. She wore it last year as well. The lady that makes these dresses for the Moppett Shop in Shreveport is retiring this year. I am so sad:(. She also made the blue one in the picture above.
