Friday Fragments ~ Orange Juice, Dino's and Awana

Welcome to another wonderful edition of Friday Fragments! Hosted by the wonderful Mrs. 4444's!

Head on over to her blog for more wonderful randomness!

Jeesh, where to even begin! First, let me tell you how many times I had to go back and re-do the pictures and my wonderful page dividers!!!!!! Too many times to count, since you can't just upload them to the spot you want, it has to go in order...so needless to say, it took me one entire afternoon to figure out how I wanted everything.....

So, I hope you enjoy this post! LOL

Here are pics of Serena and Brandon out in our yard, running thu the hose water, they really know how to enjoy the warm weather!

Here is my Ginger Girl and Serena. They are all dressed for Awana's. They go every Thursday evening from 6-8. Awana presents a unique opportunity for each child to grow in self-worth as well as in his or her relationship with God and with others. They get a little bag as you see in the pic and they get a vest. They also get a book with verses to learn and then they get special patches and things to go on their vest. Serena loves going thanks to Ginger Girl and her family. One night, Ginger Girl needed to bring a friend and she brought Serena and I signed her up the following week.

This is the dinosaur Serena and Hayden made out of you know dooootadoooo's! Toilet paper rolls and paper towel rolls. It has a hard time standing by itself, LOL I do have it up high and out of reach of Brandon...

Here is fresh orange juice I made! With the help of my parents handy dandy juicer.

Oh correction! It is a Dazey juicer! LOL The fresh OJ was delish!

Just a cute pic I saw when I was finally getting pics off the camera and just wanted to put on here.

Ok, so gas prices continue to go up and from the comments, it is going up EVERY WHERE! I was thinking last night of planning my summer, you know being home with my 3 kids and my 2 Ginger's, we will want some stuff to do...well how can I plan anything with gas prices going up all the time?!?!? I was thinking of looking into all the FREE stuff our community has to offer, like they have free movies at one theater 2 days a week and there is always the library for reading time and then the beach and of course swimming at my parents house, but I will have to drive to all these things...

Doncha love my dividers?!?! They remind me of princess crown's...LOL YEah I watch way too much Disney!

Cinco de Mayo? Nope, Happy Easter!

I thought it was just perfect to post Easter today! I trust you all had a wonderful day full of eggs, egg hunts, church if you go, and just plain chocolate!

Serena got a Tangled dress...

The Boys

We got up super early, let the kids find their baskets and had their egg hunt. Then off to church we went. I love Easter Sunday service. Then we went to breakfast and later over to my parents house to have more egg hunts with all their cousins.

Better late then never, right!?

Happy Anniversary!

It all happened 8 years ago today...we said our "I do's" and the rest is history...

I just wanted to say Happy Anniversary to my husband. I look forward to many more years of marriage with you!

I won't bore you all with the "story" because I looked back and I have done a few posts over the years on our anniversary.
