Oh My, Where do I begin....

We have missed a whole entire month! i had all good intentions of blogging last week before the end of April. Oh well, what's one week late. After you see all we have been doing this month you will know why (and hopefully forgive me) I am so behind.

We Sure have been busy! Let's see, where to begin? Well there was Easter weekend and egg hunts, a ride on thomas the train, Vet School Open House, and a weeks vacation to the grand folks house, then our first sleep over with Francie. Here are just a few highlights..........



Easter Sunday 2010




Dying Easter Eggs with Friends after our egg hunt


Visit to the Feed and Seed store to see the easter chicks and ducks. The bunnies were all sold out by the time we got there. Mary Margo wanted to kiss the chicks. So ...... we let her.


Thomas the Train

We had a wedding shower here for one of the girls at work. This is Mary Margo eating the best cupcakes in the world. My friend, Haley, made them...she bakes the best cakes EVER!


Vet School Open House
Every year the Vet School has Open House. There are petting zoos, animal exibits, breed parades, horses, cows, and lots of FUN! This year the weather was a little sketchy but it didn't keep us from going and enjoying all the animals.




On Sunday after Open House, Mary Margo went home with Nanna and DoDaddy so that me and Dusty could work on the house. We had a full week to work on the living room. Dusty covered the ceiling with bead board, rewired the lighting, and we both painted, painted and painted some more. We still have a few things to finish up but overall it was a VERY productive week.




we took a few little breaks throughout our week and enjoyed being just the two of us again. We went out to dinner and went places after 7pm....just because we could. It was nice! On Saturday, we joined the "Bike Bash". An event Auburn has annually to raise awareness for biking. It was a fun start to our Saturday morning! And since the ride started just down the street from our house it made us love our house even more. Even if it is a lot of hard work at times.

And for the GRAND FINALE of our busy life. Francie came to spend the night with us Thursday night. Her little brother, Foster, was born on Thursday. So, we took her in for the night so that her mommy and daddy could have a little time to welcome him in.

We took a little bike ride down to the park to feed the turtles and, to our surprise, there was a band playing so we stopped and listened for a minute.






The End....all caught up on the life of the Hall family. Sorry I got behind...I will try not to do that again.
