easter

we had a great easter weekend! on saturday we spent the afternoon with zack's family in dallas. kamdyn decided she would walk everywhere! it was so much fun - she walked more that day than we have ever seen! it was the best!

i guess we had so much nice weather leading up to easter that it just had to be cold on easter sunday. after church my family came over and we had the easter egg hunt inside. i don't think the kids minded or knew any difference once they spotted all the eggs! we had a great time!

dallas blooms

the weather has been so beautiful this past week! we went down to the dallas arboretum on friday...did not think about it being good friday and spring break and how many people would be off work. it was packed! but it is so beautiful and it was great to be outside all day. these are a few of the shots i got of kamdyn. i might add some black and whites later. but the colors in the flowers are so pretty!

today's adventures

easter egg hunt

kamdyn got to participate in her very first easter egg hunt today! it was such a beautiful day. some sweet friends put this together (i think they have done it for a few years). it was up at a park in little elm. first all the kids sat and listened to a book about the easter story and then it was off to hunt! kamdyn was mostly interested in eating the eggs, never aware there were treats inside. then we had a picnic lunch and all the kids played. it was a great day!

dane & kamdyn

since whitney is on spring break this week, she and dane came over to play today! he is 4 months older than kamdyn - they were so cute together! kamdyn even took a couple of steps on her own!!! she was trying to chase him and it was so great - i couldn't believe it! he is such a cutie anyway and so funny, as you can see below!

kamdyn's bday party

well, it finally came. our little girl turned ONE. we still cannot believe it. we got to have her birthday party on her actual birthday, so that was fun! she wasn't as into the cake as i had imagined but i guess it could have been stage fright with everyone staring at her! we had a polka dot party, if you can't tell. the last picture was at the end of a long day - just thought you would like to see how chunky those thighs really are!!!

preston has arrived! my sister had her baby tonight at 6:05 p.m. he is 6 pounds 12 oz. and 19.5 inches long! she claims he's perfect. ;) we can't wait to meet kamdyn's newest cousin!!!
