Pops came to visit!




McCoy has always had a very special spot in his heart for his Pops. All last week he counted down the days, no hours until Pops' arrival. Friday could not come fast enough. We are so happy that Pops lives closer and we can't wait till Nana and Uncle Steve get closer too. It is still a whole days drive but we are so grateful that Pops made the trip down to come see us this weekend. McCoy enjoyed their time together and was very sad to see him go. I enjoy seeing my dad too. I LOVE Florida but I miss my family bunches, its hard to be so far away from everybody so I truly treasures these visits. We mostly spent our time just playing with the kids. It took Bentley a while to warm up and McCoy had to work on sharing his Pops time. He is so use to having Pops all to himself so it was new to have someone else stealing the attention hee hee. Saturday we hit the beach, we splashed in the waves and played in the sand but the favorite part was by far the kites. Both kids seemed to enjoy the dancing kite and it was really the perfect day a little windy and just right for kites.
After the beach we came home and grilled up some steak and had fajitas and the works for dinner and Key Lime Pie for dessert. Thanks again Pops for teaching us some awesome grilling tricks. We learn so much every time you come. And while I'm doling out thanks, Thank You Thank you for fixing that fridge door handle! Three years of a broken handle and you fixed it in three minutes! You da best dad!









We miss you bunches all ready and can't wait for the next visit!

12 on the 12th

Blogger was down yesterday when I tried to post, so here is my be-lated 12 on the 12th. (some day I will figure out how to put these into collage form :D )

Time to wake up the Princess. She sleeps with an old pillowcase. Sleeps with and packs around during the day. She is our snuggly bunny. All work and no play makes McCoy a rich man! He got paid a 2 shiny quarters to seal and stamp a few envelopes for me today.
the work is done, time for fun! Bubbles chaos!
Quick trip to Kmart to check out some sales that coordinated well with my coupons! the coupons didn't work out so well, but I got some Easter decor for 90% off. Bentley sure loves her new Easter Basket that is just her size :)







Thanks again to cousin Bryn. We are getting ready to see some beautiful butterflies soon. We went out and bought a new home for them. Lunch Time: McCoy taking the last bite of nugget. The last bite is always the hardest but there is no toys until his food is eaten.



Story time after Lunch. Bents loves her books.



And of course making his afternoon debut - The Dr. is in. Nap time = Mommas computer and Dr. Pepper time.


After nap Bents needed to catch up on her DSI games.






We are always up for dress up around here - And here is the McCrOcKsTaR!
