Yesterday, we celebrated Palm Sunday at AUMC. Palm Sunday is a Christian moveable feast which always falls on the Sunday before Easter Sunday. The feast commemorates the triumphant entry of Jesus into 
Jerusalem in the days before his Passion. The kids walked in singing Hosanna and waving palm branches. I was so proud of the kids, especially Jack, for wait their turn and following directions. We has a record breaking number of kids participate this year. 
Here are my Easter versions of the Chocolate Pretzel Squares and Holiday Party Mix that I made for Mom’s Night Out. I just used the pastel Easter M&Ms to give that Spring look. Both are super cute and super easy to make!
Hidden Hollow Super Kids Day 2009 was so much fun! Gator Golf, Roll Chamber, Tug of War, and Flying Parrot was just a few of the thirty events the kids participated in on this day. We had wonderful weather to make it even better! Here is a couple of short video clips of Bailey and Jack in the Roll Chamber.
It’s bluebonnet season! Kelly and I took the kids to Brenham to take pictures in the fields of flowers. We had a wonderful day and got lots of great photos. I’m saving those for my April Picture of the Month ;~)
Yesterday, Kelly and I found ourselves at the Houston Premium Outlets in Cypress, TX. This is a wonderful outlet mall with an open air concept. Kind of like a strip mall turned to face itself. We did find some deals! If you haven’t already, I would suggest you check it out!
Jack's turn!
Yesterday, we had a termite swarm at our house. They were all around the back door. I have never seen such a sight. I wish I would have taken pictures, but I was so grossed out I didn’t think to grab the camera. Had 2 house inspections and are going to have the house treated. Hope we caught it early and there isn’t much damage.
Today, my friends and I helped Joan celebrate her birthday with bagels and coffee at Panera Bread. Lisa, Trish, Kristi, Me, Wendi, Kassie & Joan, you made it on my blog, have any comments?
Bailey got a new bathing suit over Spring Break. She immediately put it on and turned our family room into the beach. Here is a cute shot of my bathing beauty surfing a wave on her homemade surf board and blue blanket waves. 
Spring break this year has been a week of wonderful weather. We have tried to take advantage of this by spending lots of time outdoors. Lindsay Lyons Park has a wonderful playground called Angel Park. We met some friends and spent the entire morning yesterday. One of Jack's classmates were there as well. He and Jack ran around playing and cried when it was time to go. Bailey had a great time too. Can't wait to go back!
On St. Patrick's Day, the whole family went to Raffa's for a most enjoyable dinner. Located in the King's Harbor Waterfront Development, we sat outside and were able to enjoy the views, as well as, the wonderful spring day! I had the most delicious grilled chicken and bacon quesadilla 
and southwestern salad. Christian had the redfish, Bailey loved their cheese quesadilla and Jack had BK fries. After eating, we went for a walk down by the water. Bailey has said she liked her meal so much, she is ready to go back!
Christian took out most of the big overgrown shrubs and cut back the trees. He put sod down around the trees. He also made a beautiful edge around my new smaller flower bed. We planted salvia, dusty miller, geraniums and sweet alyssum. Leave a comment and tell me what you think!
Yesterday was the first day of Spring Break! We spent the morning at Chuck E. Cheese's with around 30 of our friends. We also had cake, since it was Kristi's actual birthday. It was one big play date and the kids used their gift cards they got from Aunt Sissy.
A hot breakfast has been on the menu since it has been chilly here the last few mornings. I made a super easy and delicious ham quiche. Here is the recipe:
Yesterday, I took my friend, Kristi, to the The Teapot Depot to celebrate her birthday. This wonderful little tearoom, located next to the railroad tracks in Highlands, TX, has just under gone a remodel on the inside dinning areas. We both had the raspberry iced tea, the tea of the day, and a piece of spice bread to start. Kristi had the Flower Pot Chicken Pot Pie, which is their signature dish. I had the Conductor's Plate, which included a scoop of dill grape chicken salad, cup of baked potato soup, corn chips and a cream cheese muffin. We topped off the birthday lunch with a piece of pecan pie. Everything was delicious!
inclusion time. A slide show of classroom photos was playing on the TV and she had out some samples of work, including a cowboy with Jack’s face. Jack showed Christian, Bailey and me some of his favorite books. Then it was on to Ms. Seiver’s SCD classroom. Music was the theme here. Jack serenaded us with the color songs they sing. We got to see all the new fun games and matching activities Ms. Seiver had added to her classroom. Last but not least, we visited Mrs. Tragesser’s room where Jack goes for speech. What a fun room, complete with a bubble machine. Good reports from all teachers. HHE … what a great school!
