The Night Before the BIG Night!

So, the Wilson side was instructed by Steve, not to be late to the rehearsal.  We were also reminded by Ann Marie that 2 years ago we were late to her rehearsal.  You would think we would make it on time.  We were late, about 20 minutes late.  I swear we tried, but life tends to get in the way.   There is no way we will be late for the wedding...

Steve is the last of the Wilson clan to get married.  Our little Brother...  Not so little anymore.  We are so happy for Meredith and Steve.  I am grateful that God has placed Meredith in Steve's life.  We wish them a smooth transition to married life.  Enjoy the pictures from the rehearsal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sprinkler Fun!

It was a hot day and with Anna napping, I thought I would let Silas have some fun with our sprinkler system.  Kirk had just finished running and joined the fun!

 

 

 

 

 

Easter Egg Hunt

With Easter quickly approaching, I am realizing more the blessings for which I am thankful.  I am thankful for our family, our health, our home, our car, access to food and clean water, and many other things.  The list is lengthy.  I am most grateful for the gift Christ gave to us when he died on the cross.  Life in Him.  I hope this will always be my focus and my family's focus during the season of Easter.  

We had a lot of fun at the Easter Egg Hunt at our local park.  There was a cake walk, face painting, balloon artist, and more.  What a blessing to have this available, one mile from our home.  Anna went for the pink eggs, of course.  They both got balloons from the balloon artist clown.  I think we were last in line... Anna opted for a flower bracelet and Si picked a sword.  After two chocolate cupcakes each, we headed home to.... melt down:)

Summer in Birmingham?!!?!

I wasn't expecting 90 degree temperatures in March, but we are enjoying our early summer.  The kids are on spring break and we are taking advantage of the weather.  In the summer, we hardly use our play equipment due to the heat and mosquitos.  It has been getting a lot of use this week!

Happy Birthday Amos!

 Amos is one!!  It was fun to watch him dig into his cake.  While unsure at first, he ended up enjoying it a little too much.  Happy Birthday Sweet Boy!

Meeting Bob the Tomato

 The kids love veggie tales and we went to a live show.  They had a lot of fun.  Grandmom came to visit and came along.  It was fun watching the kids edge closer and closer to the stage.  At the end of the show, a lot of kids were right in front of the stage screaming and dancing. 

 In anticipation...
