Easter!

We had an action-packed Easter weekend this year!  I worked Friday night so we started in on the festivities Saturday afternoon after swim.  Cooper, Hudson, and I dyed eggs and big boy Carter decided to play outside with his buddies instead.  Next came our Easter egg hunt at Nunu and Pop's.  The boys all three loved every bit of that and were very quick to find their 20 eggs each!  Coop and Carter were so sweet to find their own and then help Hudson find all of his.  We spent most of the night at my parents and headed home with sleepy but excited boys ready to see what the Easter bunny would leave for them in the morning.  Sunday was a whirlwind of getting everyone up and ready for church a little earlier than normal.  Adding the Easter baskets and a puppy into the mix made for an interesting morning but we thankfully made it to church with a few minutes to spare!  The Easter bunny has our stamp of approval as all three boys loved all of their goodies.  Carter's big thing was a model rocket, Coop got a scooter, and Hudson got a leaf blower that blows bubbles.  They were quite spoiled to say the least!

I don't know if his eyes could possibly be any bluer!

Hard at work!



Hudson was a big help with the stickers:).



We laugh that Carter has done a complete 180 in his attire these days.  He used to have to be wearing topsiders and a polo or button up to even walk outside but now it's comfort all the way!







I sure look cute and innocent but don't believe it!











Easter morning is finally here!



Peeps, they're what's for breakfast.

Love this sweet profile.



A bit of a camera shy Hudson after church.









Love these boys!

Still not really feeling picture time!

Someone was nice enough to offer to take our picture together but unfortunately they didn't think Cooper was worthy of more than hair in it:).





Chocolate bunnies are the best!

Loving my new blower!  Harry is hilarious and chases after the bubbles like a crazy dog.  On a side note, warm temps, please come soon, Hudson is busting out of his 2T clothes!

Perfect life for a two year old, a puppy, bubbles, and a breeze!

Coop has really learned how to ride his scooter well in just a few days!






Hope everyone had a great Easter weekend as well!  We are so blessed to have such happy, healthy, and fun boys with family close by to enjoy every second of it.  God is good!

Heels for Healing Run

Last weekend we headed to Chapel Hill for an early morning of fun.  A friend of mine works for a charity that was sponsoring a run called the Heels for Healing 5K.  They also had a kids fun run so I thought it would be a good thing for us to all do together.  Jamey runs but hates the idea of running in 5Ks but was nice enough to do this one with me!  Ashley and Andrew came and hung out with the boys while we did our run and then the boys had their chance to show their speed;).  Carolina's head football coach Larry Fedora started the race and couldn't have been nicer to us and the boys.  He talked their heads off and they loved every second of it, especially Carter!









Almost time to run, can you tell it's early for us!?



Jamey was "so" excited to have his very own number that he proudly wore, not!

The fencing team was there to entertain the kids and Carter loved having the chance to wield a sword!

Hudson was a little shy for the first part of the morning so Ashley got her upper body workout in by lugging his heavy self around!

Love these stairsteps...they thought they were too cool for school with their numbers!



The many faces of Cooper!



Fun Run time!

Carter was all business and sprinted his little head off on their 1/2 mile trek.

Cooper was all business as well and had a sweet girl run with him and cheer him along.  I was honestly amazed he finished without walking but he did great!

Here comes Carter in 2nd place!


Almost to the finish line to get his medal!

One Tired Cooper! 

Admiring their hardwear!

We had such a great time and thanks so much to Ashley and Andrew for coming and helping us!
