Backyard paradise, good grades and parades

I will always cherish that phone call from my cousin Jessica who asked if the girls wanted a trampoline. It was used, but in good condition and she was willing to bring it and help put it together with her boyfriend Joe. The girls were so excited to find out the surprise and watched from our bedroom window.



                                        Hailey wanted to be the first one to stand on it


The next day, she didn't hesitate to run out in what we called our backyard paradise to the new trampoline, even though it was cold...


The girls and I grew to love this trampoline more than ever expected...we played games like duck duck goose, tag, so many made up games, played music and danced, even used sidewalk chalk to draw before rainy days....so many memories from this hand me down trampoline....
                                                ...oh yeah, and the static hair was the best






Made it to see the horses near Mimi and Pop's, along with Aunt Julie



Hailey entered an art show. The proceeds went to an animal shelter.


                                              ....and daddy got a new job. Looking sharp!


Hailey made all A's so we celebrated with cupcakes and A's made out of strawberries!



Hailey got to bring this teddy bear home from school for the weekend



Lindsey Grace and her friend Hannah Grace had fun



                                           Nothing better than homemade popsicles!


The girls and I got ready for their first experience at the downtown St Patrick's Day parade. We must have walked for miles and pushing a stroller through the crowd was not fun to say the least, but we made it. Hailey was more excited about wearing her multi-colored hair piece than the color green. They both enjoyed getting their faces painted, trying caramel apples for the first time, which started Hailey's first loose tooth.
