Fun at Folly Beach

Preschool Easter Egg Hunt

 Owens Easter egg hunt was last week since Ben wasn't here Beau went with me. Owen didn't say a lot about having him there but I know it's something he won't soon forget.

Spring Picture Day

Today was Spring Picture Day at the middle school but somehow we missed the memo telling us that we had to prepay for the pictures, I don't usually buy them but Anna looked really pretty so she was disappointed so we took a few pictures of our own and I will print them and hang them on the wall. They have grown up so much.

Anna's Haircut

Anna got a really grown up haircut with layers and texture, she loves. I love it too but I don't love how much older she looks every day.

Spring is Coming

We enjoyed a beautiful day outside on Sunday, softball practice, bike riding, reading on the porch swing. Spring is rolling in, lots of rain this week but that's okay the sun will come back.

Life Lessons from an 11 Year Old

I never know what I'm going to find in the piles of school papers the kids leave on the counters, or tables, or bedroom floors, or living room floors, yeah guess that's something else we need to work on, but I found this treasure a couple weeks ago and its just too good to not keep permanently.

How to Make A Besty

By: Anna Marnell

2/12/15

Ingredients:

* 6 cups of laughter

* 3 tablespoons of kindness

* 4 teaspoons of swag

* Dash of conversation

* 2 cups of fun

* 1/2 cups honesty

* 3 teaspoons of support

* Pinch of secrets

* Dollop of forgiveness

* Jokes

First you must mix in 6 cups of laughter with the 3 tablespoons kindness. Next, slowly beat in the 4 teaspoons of sway. Then you should throw in a dash of conversation because your friend will need to talk. Then gently stir in the 2 cups of fun because I know I like to have fun with my friends. Next, we will need to add a 1/2 cup of honesty because who wants their friends lying to them? After you mix that in add 3 teaspoons of support and a pinch of secrets. Then you should put it in a tin of jokes and cook it for about ten minutes. Finally, we to spread a dollop of forgiveness on the top, and there you have it a new best friend.

Snow Fun

The kids finally got their snow day, or more aptly four snow days. The snow didn't last long, only a couple of hours but we made sure to enjoy it. Captured  a few photos but I was too busy playing to get many. Wonderful memories made.

Beau thought Oscar catching snowballs was hilarious.

Luke couldn't wait to peg me with this snowball.

Sledding down the driveway with cardboard didn't workout so well.

I walked down to get the mail, it was so peaceful and so beautiful, I do love the peace serenity of a simple snowfall.

A snow day isn't complete without a snowman.

Owen didn't want to take a break from his snowball fight for a picture, but we tried.
