Yesterday we spent the morning at Carowinds...most of the time getting our season passes but still enough time to find eggs, see Snoopy and the Bunny, Ride the Carousel and train and have a little Easter fun..As usual, Carissa wanted nothing to do with the Bunny or Snoopy.....oh well. Maybe next year!!
We had such a nice time yesterday morning with all of our friends at the neighborhood egg hunt. Mason loved finding pine cones as much as easter eggs and Carissa loved her POOH Basket...She collected almost every egg she saw...but only ended up with 11 since most kept falling out of her basket. The weather was beautiful and it was so fun to watch all the kids enjoy themselves...onto Carowinds for Egg Stavaganza!!!
Today was a beautiful day to color Easter Eggs and the kids had so much fun going to town with all of the fun tubs of dye and eggs....A little Messy but definately fun too watch.
Mommy and Mason made the best treat for Mason's preschool Easter Party....Haystack Bird's nests with speckled M&M's for the eggs.....sorry for the bad picture...I forgot to take a picture of the pretty ones all bagged up nice for the party...oh well, you get the idea and they sure were a blessed treat!!!
Yes, Spring is definately here in the Carolina's and all of of pear and cherry trees are in full bloom....The photo of our house above is the number one reason for my allergies being through the roof right now....hopefully the leaves will fill in and with a little rain i may actually be able to breathe again....all of that aside....it really is quite pretty until the wind blows and it looks like it is snowing in April:) Happy Spring!!!
Today the kids had the greenest St.Patricks Day ever....starting at Mason's School, they did a Muffins for Mommy morning then, Carissa had a morning playdate at our house with her good friend Izzy and sister Clara...They ate green grapes, green goldfish, green applesauce, green cupcakes and green juice...ahh!!! So Fun!! Wish we could have played longer but we had to pick up Mason from Preschool and he brought home his friend Isa this afternoon for round 2 of Green Day Fun!!! They had the best time snacking and playing in the backyard. Playtime ended just in time to serve up our Cornbeef, Cabbage and Red Potato Dinner...and after dinner we had a mess in our living room as McLucky the Leprechaun came through making a big mess and leaving gold coins everywhere. Happy St.Patty's Day...I am sure glad all of our fun is over for the day...mommy is tired!!!
Carissa and Izzy are so lucky to have spent the last 2 St.Patrick's days together...I sure hope every year we can do a traditional St.patty's Playdate....Look at how much these 2 adorable girls have grown up in just one year!!!
Charlotte just finished their remodel at Discovery Place and We were lucky enough for GaGa and Pa to get us a Family Pass for the entire year for Carissa's Birthday. They had a great children's area and Mason loved making "contraptions" out of building materials upstairs. Their favorite is always the water play and Mason loved building his own race car and racing it with all the other kids. We can't wait to continue taking the Light Rail Uptown for more fun this summer.
