"Ring Bearer"




I was ecstatic when Erik's cousin, Mike, asked Carson to be the ring bearer. Carson did great at the rehearsal. Unfortunately, when his moment came for the actual wedding, he refused to walk down the aisle. I figured that at least he would look great in the pictures. But, he refused to take any pictures either. I'd get him talked into it with some superhero bribes, but as soon as he'd see everyone all dressed up and posed waiting for him, he'd chicken out. As long as I wasn't trying to get him to do any ring bearer duties, he had a great time though =) Congratulations Mike and Christine!

The Zoo



Here are a couple pictures from Carson's trip to the zoo with his playgroup from a few weeks ago. As usual, he had a blast!

Putt Putt Golfing





Today, we met Carson's playgroup to do some putt putt golfing. I thought it may be pure chaos with all those 2 and 3 year old playing putt putt golf, but it turned out to be tons of fun. The kids loved it! Afterward, they rode the trackless train and jumped in the big moonwalk. We had a great afternoon!

My last day of vacation

I had such a great vacation. We stayed in town and just tried to do a couple fun things every day.

Today, we started out the day feeding some ducks with Carson's playgroup at Tom Bass.



Then we went to visit Winston.




We ended it up by going to Zoobilee at the Houston Zoo. This is my favorite perk for being a zoo member. Carson collected stamps in his passport for finding certain animals and then turned it in at the end for a coloring book and crayons. Along the way, he also touched a live turtle and snake, met some dancers dressed up at animals, got pooped on by a bird, and rode the carousel.








I am sad that my vacation is over. I am not ready to go back to work =(

Backyard fun!






I'm so excited that its warm enough to play outside with the water. Carson had a blast this evening. He was singing his own rendition of "Its raining, its pouring, the old man is snoring." Too cute! I also added a picture of my knockout roses. They are looking so beautiful right now!

Easter Party



Today was Carson's school Easter party. I was finally off for one of his school parties. The kids had an egg hunt, ate a special lunch, then made the most adorable craft project. Carson was very selective on which eggs he would pick up. Most kids just got twelve eggs as fast as they could. Carson had to decide if each egg was good enough. By the end, most of the eggs had already been picked up and we had to search for the last couple remaining eggs. It was a very fun party, and we get to do it all again tomorrow for Easter Party Part 2!
