Nancy Drew and Fun Run

FUN RUN

Arlington had a Boosterthon Fun Run last week. Avery and I went to cheer for Allie. The kids had a great time. Here are a few pictures.

BOOK WEEK

Allie had book week at scool. (I am late posting). She didn't want to dress up, but when she found out she got a reward she decided she would. She decided to be Nancy Drew. Which I thought was great, being that it was the night before dress up day. I would like to say that I am a mom that could whip up a cute costume at the last minute. But that is so not me. So Nancy Drew was an easy costume. Allie like it because she does like to get dress up and look silly and I told her we could straighten her hair. (In the movie Nancy Drew the girl has long straight hair. I think the original Nancy Drew had short straight hair.) Anyway, Allie was so excited to have straight hair. She loved it!! She keeps asking if we can do again.

Spring Break and Easter

Spring Break
Allie and Chris were on Spring Break last week. We really didn't do much. We spend a lot of time cleaning out stuff in the house. Avery was sick the first few days and the weather was not so good. So the girls spend a lot of time playing inside. On Thursday, the weather was great so the girls and I met my aunt Connie and her kids at the zoo. Everyone else in Atlanta was at the zoo too. Then we went for lunch at the Varsity. It was a lot of fun and Allie and Avery loved spending time with their cousins.

Easter Weekend
Saturday we went to the egg hunt at Cedar Grove church. It was fun to see our friends from there. The kids had a great time. Then, we went home and my brother and his family came in from Alabama. We really enjoyed spending time with them.

Easter Day
The Easter bunny came. We had a good day at church. Then we went over to a my aunt Cheryl and uncle Steve's for a great lunch. The kids had another egg hunt and it was great to be with family. My parents didn't get to come down this year and we missed having them.
