whew....

What a crazy, busy weekend we had! It started Friday morning with Brinley's first swim lesson. She was a little slow to warm up being in the pool without me, but after 5 minutes she was kicking, practicing her alligator arms and blowing bubbles in the water!

After swim lessons, I was hosting an Easter party at my house for Brinley's BFF's. It was a gorgeous day and the girls had a great time dying eggs, playing in the backyard, and hunting the eggs. Brinley definitely has egg hunting down this year! I don't even have to direct her where to go, she sees the eggs and takes off! After a great afternoon of eating and playing, we met Daddy for dinner and came home and passed out from exhaustion!

Saturday morning, Brinley, Clayton and I went to a baby shower for Baby Ferrell while Jason played golf. Another beautiful day was spent playing outside with Chloe (big sis to be) and eating cake. On our way home from the shower (at nap time), Brinley saw everyone walking pass our house carrying Easter baskets. I had forgotten our neighborhood egg hunt was that afternoon! Brinley ran in the house, grabbed her basket, as Jason luckily walked in the door, and off we headed for more egg hunting!

After a short nap, we headed to Jason's uncle's house for dinner. We sat outside, watched basketball and ate burgers, while Brinley and Hannah ran wild for 3 hours!

Sunday, we headed to my brother's house at lunchtime for Reese's 6th birthday party. I can't believe she is already 6 years old! They had her birthday party at their neighborhood park with a moonwalk and popcorn machine. Brinley stayed in the moonwalk the entire time and was not threatened by all the big kids, in fact she was doing the same things they were doing!

Happy Birthday Reese!

After the party, we went to PF Changs for dinner...YUM! We then came home and all passed out from our crazy weekend!

So, this morning we woke up and it is 50 degrees...where did the pretty weather go? Brinley can barely breathe due to allergies from being outside all weekend and Clayton was diagnosed with eczema skin allergy at the doctor office this morning! What a great way to start the week!
