Happy Easter from the Family





We took Caroline to the Arboretum in Dallas today. She was so busy!!! We had to park in the remote parking and shuttle to the Arboretum. Apparently Dallas Blooms is a big deal around here. She made friends on the bus and laughed and giggled while I sang "The Wheels on the Bus." When we got to the park Derrick and I let her out of her stroller and she was off. Keeping up with Caroline is becoming a more and more appropriate title. We took a ton of cute pictures, but Derrick and I decided we really need to invest in a new camera. The pictures were OK, but they should have been so much better....could also be user error...nahh.

Caroline had a great time looking at the flowers and the fountains. She is so intrigued by water falls and fountains, but she HATES to have her hair washed or step in the shower...weird. In addition to all of the fun with the flowers and the fountains and the Easter Bunny, she had her first root beer float. Derrick and I hardly had any. She can be a greedy little thing!

We have lots of other fun stuff happening right now too. Today is her 16 month "birthday." It seems like she has really had a "learning spurt," is there such a thing? We went to have lunch with my Granny this week. Caroline started mimicking the hand motions for The Itsy Bitsy Spider. gg spent the night on Tuesday and Caroline started learning This Little Light of Mine. She is a hoot. She will cover my finger and hold her breath waiting for when we hide it under a bushel. Then she gets really excited to blow, Don't let the devil "whoo" it out. Funny stuff in Caroline's house. Appropriately, she is also working on Jesus Loves Me. So far she says,"Yeh chee bi buh." Precious.

For all you Aggies out there we are also working on the Whoop. She'll be ready for yell practice and football season this year! Watch out Fightin' Texas Aggie Class of 2028.

Hope everyone has enjoyed the beginning of Easter weekend. He is risen and we are blessed!
