Happy Mother's Day to all the Mommies!

Happy Mom's Day to all the hard working and very patient moms out there. My little family took me out the night before so we wouldn't have to think about the crowds on the actual day. We had a fun time at the Corvette Diner. Its a 50's restaurant in SD that was a blast for all of us. It may have been a bit loud for mommy and daddy (are we getting old or what?) but it was a great place to take the kiddos and enjoy each other. Elizabeth and mommy even got up-do's by our waitress using red straws! We both loved that! We hope all the moms out there had a chance to relax and be appreciated today!

A Visit From Babcia While Daddy Was Gone:)

While Daddy took a fun trip to visit his best bud Peter (aka Burbz), Babcia came down to hang out with Mommy, Owen and Elizabeth. She helped mommy tremendously by washing clothes and bedding for baby brother! Thank you so much Babica. She also got to watch one of Owen's T-ball games and work the snack bar! Boy, we put her to work when she visits. As you can see in the picture below, she also did some needed gardening with O and E. We don't know where she gets the energy! Thanks Mom (aka Babcia)! You are the best. We love you so much.

Squeezin' in a few trips before Baby Heath arrives!

So we packed our car a couple times these last few weeks to squeeze in some family time before our new little addition arrives. Boy, Mama didn't realize how challenging it would be to go camping and walk D-land this far along in pregnancy. But we did it and a fun time was had by all. Family times we will always remember. And really, our passes for D-land expired this past weekend so we are taking a break from D-land for now.:) We will keep everyone posted on Baby Heath's arrival. I (Joanna) am 35 weeks as I am writing this so our little guy could be ready to arrive anytime.

A Super Spring Break Visit With Other Auntie

Jeremiah's Aunt makes an annual visit with her friends, Bob and Terri Harper to Mission Beach to spend time with another dear friend named Ray. Ray owns this fun home right on Mission Beach where they get to relax all week long. We always try to make a few visits with them while they down here during the week. The last couple years, Owen and Elizabeth get pumped to have a one night sleep-over on their last night there. Thank you for a fun visit Other Auntie, Harpers and Mr. Ray! Always so fun to hang out with you all.;)

Happy Easter plus some Spring Break Fun!

We hope you and your family had a wonderful Easter. He has risen, He has risen indeed!

Baby Brother still arriving June 2nd! Boy! Mama will sure be ready!
Painting Eggs!

An Easter Egg Hunt at church with friends.

Owen's first tooth came out! We couldn't believe it. The tooth fairy paid Owen a visit with $1.00!
Babcia comes down for a fun visit!
Elizabeth's first haircut and cute do at Pigtails and Crewcuts. Thank you Babica!


Our passes are expiring next month so we had to get a day at Disney over Spring Break. Our dear friends the Chesebros met us there! What fun.

Owen's First T-Ball Game

Baseball season is here and our daddy is a sucker when it comes to coaching a team when Owen is involved. He is coaching 9 other little guys, all mostly in their first year of playing ball. Their team is called the Greensboro Grasshoppers. It was so fun and hilarious to watch their first game last weekend. They all love to run after the ball to see who can grab it first to throw it to one of the basemen. Owen just loved hanging out in the outfield kicking the dirt a bit. His favorite position that day was being the catcher. The gear really made him feel important even though he wasn't always sure when to look out for the ball coming his way. I think he just enjoyed spending time with Coach Daddy and having his mama and sissy watch. Way to go Owen! More great games to come this season!

Annual Girls' Weekend Rocks Once Again!

Another fun and relaxing girls weekend has passed again. This year we met up in Newport Beach at the Townsend's residence (Ali's parents. Alison is one of the sweet friends that is always willing to host us) . Unfortunately I'm not the greatest picture taker during these weekends. We didn't get a chance to get a group photo(all 10 of us were there this year!), and I only took a few shots that were on the last day of our time together.
We just relaxed, played a few games, watched a movie and just caught up on everyone's parenthood life. Yes, we are all moms now! Crazy. It is always so refreshing to to meet with these women and see how the Lord is molding us. Thanks for such a great weekend gals. Love you all!
