Happy Easter





This weekend we had a lot to celebrate! I turned the big 3-0 on Saturday and Alli and Mikey planned an 80's themed birthday party with the family. The night was filled with gaudy outfits, blue eyeshadow, teased hair, yummy food, games, and lots of laughs with some of the people I love most.



Sunday of course was extra special! Easter has become one of the most special days of the year for me. We had a quiet day at home, just the three of us, with an easter egg hunt before lunch and then church in the evening. Ava looked adorable in her easter dress (#2 I might add! Gigi loves to shop for her and I dont mind one bit!)



Here are a few pictures from the weekend but click on the shutterfly link for more. Hope everyone had a Happy Easter!

Spring is in the air

And what better time to get pictures with the Easter Bunny and frolic through the Bluebonnets!

We took advantage of both exciting events tonight since Ava was pretty in pink in her beautiful easter dress from Gigi. First stop was a {free!) picture with the Easter Bunny at Bass Pro Shop.


I knew from her picture with Santa that she wasn't going to smile, even though she really was excited to see the Easter Bunny. After the picture the Easter Bunny gave her some jelly beans and she was in heaven!

The Bass Pro Shop is awesome by the way! It was like a mini field trip! Here are Ava and Daddy checking out the pond with real fish and ducks.


Our next stop was pictures in the bluebonnets. Here are a few of my favorites.



My beautiful little angel.

I don't think I could be more in love.


I have posted more photos to the Shutterfly site (in the April folder) if you are interested in taking a peek.

Mikey turns 32!

I know I'm a little late posting this but my sweet hubby turned 32 a couple of weeks ago (and Macy turned 5 the day before! Gotta give some love to my furry baby too!). To celebrate Mikey played golf in the morning with some of his buds and then we had a special birthday edition of Supper Club at The Wolters house.


I love this guy so much!

and this little girl feels the same way I do!

A Weekend in The Woodlands

This past weekend we went to The Woodlands and as always our stay was jammed pack with activities. My friend from college, Beth Ann, was getting married on Saturday and Bekah was also having her 2nd birthday party in Houston on Saturday. Unfortunately one of my horrible migraines decided to literally blindside me (I get blindspots as a precursor to the most awful headache ever!) so I spent the majority of the afternoon "napping" so that I could try and fight it off. We made it to Bekah's party, but I have to admit, as we were driving there I was wondering if I would be able to make it through the party. Thanks to some more tylenol, some food and water, and seeing the wonderful Burkhart family that we love so much I was temporarily able to feel better again. ( I didn't bring my camera with me to Bekah's party but it was fabulous and the birthday girl could not have been cuter!). After we left the party I unfortunately ended up feeling bad again and was not able to make it to Beth Ann's wedding like we had planned. So much for wearing Rebekah's pretty dress and my new shoes! By Sunday I felt back to my old self again and was able to enjoy spending some time with Papa, Gramielle, Jim, and a few of Mikey's friends from high school. In some of the pictures from the weekend you will see Ava riding in style in a backpack designed to carry children while hiking. A friend of Papa's is letting us borrow it for our fun hiking adventure in Jackson Hole, Wyoming this summer. Ava loved being in it, who wouldn't actually, so now I am looking forward even more to our trip. Before we left she also got to have an Easter Egg Hunt in P & G's backyard since they wont be with us for Easter.
