Big Kids

Look how big they look now. They don't look like babies anymore!

Daddy Juice

Free for All

I taught the kids right! They only go for the best. From the look of this picture you would think that I sent them in the local Starbucks to get arm loads of coffee and bolt out the door. "Quick kids, run in, get the goods and head for the door!" What you can't see is the getaway car sitting just outside the door.

Orange and White Game with Gam'Ma Gam'Pa

Momma took the kids up to Clemson for the Annual spring Orange and White scrimmage and to see Gam'Ma Gam'Pa. There were jumpies there, as you can see below with Ian playing quarterback. There was also time for a boat ride which the kids love, however Ian kept complaining about his life jacket, ("boat backpack"), because it kept riding up and hitting him in the chin.

Easter Weekend, VB 2010!

We made the trip to Va Beach for Easter this past weekend and for the first time with the babies to see Yaya Reid, Poppee Wayne, Aunt Paige, Uncle Jason and Cousin Conner. Aunt Keith also made a visit from Suffolk to see everyone, including the babies for the first time. I believe we all need a little vacation to rest from our vacation as Yaya Reid had so many events planned, we definitely got our fill of to do's. The kids had a great time and there were so many things to do, everything from the Botanical Garden, to the Aquarium, Mt. Trashmore, playgrounds, Easter egg hunts and candy oh my! The first picture will link you to the web gallery of the Easter Egg hunt while the second will link you to many of the weekends events and fun pictures.

Daffodil Farm 2010

This year we found a Daffodil Farm in Beaufort at Cruden Farms. It was closer that driving in to Bluffton to where we went to last years Daffodil Farm. The kids loved it! It was a little breezy chilly and a grey day but a beautiful day anyway. With kids this adorable it couldn't be anything other than a great day. Ian looks like a Gap model in these photos with his squinty eyes and Emma with her hair blowing in the wind. Mmm, couldn't you just eat them up? Beautiful babies!

Habersham Trail Ride

Now that it has finally started to warm up and the massive 1-2 inches of snow melted (minutes later), we have been able to take a couple trail rides through the beautiful landscape of Habersham. You can see how picturesque it is through here and then throw in a couple adorable kids and what do you get...take a look and see.

Blizzard of 2010!

(click picture for web gallery)

It was mass chaos in SC as the winter storm (Blizzard of 2010) rapidly approached. Before the first snowflake fell, the grocery stores were flooded with panic. Rioting and looting occurred to gather up all the canned goods and bottled water, just in case the mere couple inches we were supposed to get froze door hinges or prevented the doors from opening. Cars were parked in the garages and keys hung on their respective hooks as no one dare drive with a single snowflake on the streets to prevent the cars from spinning violently out of control off the roads.

Given that news flash, the kids had a great time playing in their first snow. They went running through it, made snowballs and even helped neighboring children build snowmen. It did turn into a double edge sword however as the kids played without gloves the first time (no thanks to mommy and daddy), their hands got cold and they began to cry. We told them to lets go inside and warm up our hands and come back out and that made them cry even more because they didn't want to go inside, rather play in the snow. It was a fun filled day and pictures to boot. Even the oxymoron picture of the palm tree with snow.
