Build A Bow has Launched

I have been having fun making these crochet flower headbands and clips for a while and a few people suggested I try to sell them, So I figured what the heck! I opened up an esty shop. Wow, it was a bit confusing but I finally figured it out, I think....anyhoo they are quite cute I must say and I tried to price them very reasonably. They come in a set for $15.00; which includes 2 flowers, a headband, clip and ponytail holder. The flowers are interchangeable so you can just button them on an off all 3. Go check it out at www.etsy.com/listing/76281930/build-a-bow and let me know what you think! If you like them and want to place an order, I will take 20% off of your price if you are willing to advertise my esty link on your blog or facebook page.

T Ball

Year 2 of T-ball for Arlo. This year was even funner than last. Our good friends the Warners asked if Clint would like to assistant coach with Jason on his team so we joined the Mets. Arlo loved being on the same team as Julian & Lucy. He really blossomed this year. He seemed to get the hang of how to swing and by the end of the season, rarely needed the T. It looks like he might have his Dads' talent for the game. We still need to work on his focus a bit, but that is what makes watching T ball at this age so funny! We had lots of famiy like Grandma & Grandpa Dilley, Aunt Darlene & Erin, Uncle Doug, and Aunt Heather & Uncle Eric come to cheer Arlo on. He loved having family their to watch him. Heres some pics of his season.

Moms, Sandcastles And Birds

Mothers day also came and went...had a great day. Woke up to my cute boys and a cupcake with a candle. Then went to breakfast with grandma Georgette. Got some pretty jewlrey and later in the day visited with grandma Kathy. On a side note, we have been having a lot of fun in the sandbox this summer and have built some pretty good sandcastles I must say. We also have gotten into birdwatching since we built our birdhouse. All of the different kinds of birds visiting have gotten us curious and we decided to get a bird book at the library. We have discovered alot of different types of birds and decided to show Arlo's preschool class for Show and tell. Arlo helped mom make a poster all about our findings.

The boys and the Diggers

The boys spent a good part of easter playing with their diggers in the sandbox. They have gotten a lot of use out of them since. They just love playing with dirt...thats boys for ya!

Easter Morning

Easter morning we sent the boys on a Basket Hunt. It was so much fun. I wrote little clues based on Dr. Suess books. The clue's led them to their Basket's and their final present which was in the shower. They loved it. We got them Digger's for the Sandbox Clint had just finished outside. They spent a good bulk of the day outside with them. They have been huge hits...

Easter Egg Hunt #2

Grandma & Grandpa Dilley also had an easter egg hunt and all of the cousins were there. Arlo & Dylan had so much fun. They got lots and lots of help from Grandpa, Uncle Doug and all of the cousins.

Easter Egg Hunt #1

The boys first Easter Egg hunt was in our back yard with the Hansons. They absolutely loved it! Dyl was an easter egg hunting pro and really got into it. He was quite good at finding the eggs actually. Cute little Sophie seemed more interested in playing on the swings and with her bucket. Grandma Georgette was also here to help the kids with their hunt. We all had a great time.

wow, behind again! here was easter....

Easter came, easter went...we had a great time! heres som pics

Easter Egg Dying!

The boys loved this. It was so funny Arlo had a strategy and lined each color up in a very organized manner. He dipped his eggs very gently and carefully into the egg dye. I dont think he got a speck on him. Dyl was quite another story. He basically plunged both hands elbow deep into the dye and wanted to put the same egg in all of the colors -at once! he looked like the incredible hulk by the time we were finished.
