Easter, baseball and stuff!

He is Risen!

We were able to go to Nana and Papa's home for a fun egg hunt and family time on Saturday. Jason took pictures on his phone but they didn't come out. I bet you can imagine them - boys playing baseball and flying kites in the yard.

On Sunday, we went to church!  Here is our only family picture thanks to a kind lady who offered to snap it for us.

After church, we did a few projects around our house, and then went to GG and Bubba's for dinner and more family time.  Chase and the Halls joined in as well.

Kyle had another game last week.  He was able to get a few hits and here is a cute picture of a few Walker boys at first base!

The Pioneers played in our first tournament.  We ended 1-2 and with a few sad faces.  Grant was able to pitch (he was catcher for 1.5 games and then pitched in two of the three games - his poor arm should have been so tired - that's a LOT of throwing!).  He did pretty good on the mound!

Reid, Kyle and I did a lot of sitting in lawn chairs and driving hot wheels in the dirt.  Reid had finally had enough and had to burn some energy by climbing the chain link fence!

Reid decided to be really cute and affectionate with me after our Hideaway date.  These are through the restaurant window from Jason's phone as Reid thought he needed to steal a few kisses from his mommy and make her smile!

Park time with our friends!

The baby swings were full and Reid wanted to be with Mom....

I'll take the cuddles!  Thanks to Rachelle for being quick with her camera to catch the sweetness.

Mr. woke up with a fever and was happy in our bed.  Reid has been the most sick of the three boys - never anything bad but just a slight fever that lasts a day a lot this winter.  Thankful for nothing major!

We are normally all about doing our own yard work - we think it's fun to get out and see the progress, and it's been great exercise, especially for my skinny husband who has lost 30 pounds.

HOWEVER, sometimes, you just want and need a professional....

In this case, two landscape management college kids who want to earn some money. 

For those who haven't been to our house, we have over an acre and only part of the yard is fenced.  The rest was completely natural, but with 30 snakes last summer, and our desire for things to be tidy, we wanted it cleaned out like our neighbor's yard.  This is a before shot:



Yea!  We can now walk to our friends and the kids can play so much more safely back there.  It's still full of nature but without all of the dead debris and thorns, etc.  SO worth the money to have saved us so many weekends of time.
