Kriegs at a Glance.

I can't believe that it is April. Really?  Where did the last 6 weeks go?!?!  Per the request of a couple of someones- here is our month at a glance....

Bob and Gigi came to visit on a cool rainy weekend so Bob and Avery took the opportunity to go to the neighborhood pond and catch a fish...no luck but they had fun!
Anna had Donuts for Dads at school- she is SUCH a daddy's girl and LOVED having him there to visit!
Avery and Anna modeled their St. Patrick's Day attire at the beginning of march!
these girls are SO silly....
Both girls started gymnastics in March- they LOVE it and I can't believe how much avery is improving!
Avery is SUCH a good Big sister- this was on a park outing on a beautiful March day!
And THIS is Avery and Allie on a NOT so beautiful March day
We all went to Sesame Street Live together.  It was Avery's third time and Anna's FIRST.  I have to admit- we had a GREAT time, I loved it...its just SO much fun to experience these things through my kids' eyes!
It's almost showtime!
The famous cast has arrived- they were pretty stinkin' cute!
My dancing queens
Avery got mad because Elmo wouldn't actually come talk to her- she wanted to show him her elmo shirt & tattoo....and when he didn't run to listen, THIS was her response.
March at the Kriegs meant LOTS of good basketball. Brett and I have always followed Baylor sports- even when they are terrible.  BUT tThis year, it was SUPER DUPER fun to have a GREAT team to cheer for.  For our Sweet 16 game Avery and I made Bear Cookies to get game-ready!
Anna got a new blanket from my Grandma Walker and and she loves snuggling with it.  She and Avery use their "princess" blankets daily!
We let Avery make some decisions on her "activities" for the month.  She CHOSE to quit dance in order to take gymanstics and soccer.  We had her first practice AND game this week.  The game was interesting- Avery got REALLY nervous and didn't like her jersey so she freaked out about going.  However, once we got there- she did GREAT!  And Anna loved watching- until she took a spill in the mud.  Love that kid.
We had a mid-week playdate at the park with some of Avery's school friends.  It was so fun to see them play together.  We went while the little ones were at Moms Day Out so the moms actually got to sit and visit while the big kids PLAYED!


Then Easter arrived!  We had SUCH a glorious Easter weekend. HE HAS RISEN!  We celebrated with my parents on Friday and Saturday and then after church on Sunday, we spent the day at Larry an Becky's. 

Avery getting her Easter basket from Gigi- it included matching dresses for her American girl doll and herself, she as excited!
Dying Easter Eggs with Bob & Gigi
My first attempt at a bunny cake :-)
Hunting eggs Easter morning at home
Anna checking out her new Easter book
and of course breaking into the candy!
Avery checking out the goodies inside her eggs!
I tried to get cute pics of the girls in their Easter dresses but it was next to impossible- anna is less than cooperative and Avery is too busy to stand still but I did TRY!



It was a great day at PaPa and Grandma Becky's- there was good food, a trip to see Great Grandpa Krieg and go to the park, an egg hunt AND some bouncing!

THAT gets me caught up and Kels if you are STILL reading- happy belated to you my friend, this one was FOR you :-)

Loved catching up with the Kriegs. Love that I wanted Bo to wear the shirt that Brett has on when we went to see Elmo Live and he looked at me like I was nuts! Way to go, Brett!! : )

Miss you friend.
