Old McDonald had a Farm


Today the boys and I had a play-date with some of the Mom's from Church and we went to this local farm called "Old McDonald's Farm" the boys and I had a blast. Noah was enjoying what the farm had to offer and took full advantage of going right up to the animals and touching them, feeding them and chasing the turkey's. I was quite surprised at the way he persisted on feeding all the animals himself and not allowing me to help, but that is why Noah is my free spirit! Luke on the other hand being his usual cautious self did not want to go up to the animals and definitely not inside some of the cages to feed them, and he had a few scary moments when a turkey started to follow him around. But the high point of the trip for them was the train ride around the whole farm...boys will be boys. All together it was a fun day to get out and do something new and make some new friends.

Arizona Pride in Texas

We still have to keep in touch with our Arizona pride. We are one of the few here in Texas who wear something other that the traditional Texas team gear. Now there are quite a few LSU fans so we do not feel completely out of sorts. So in Bob's honor we pay homage to The University of Arizona...Go Wildcats!

Now I had to include this picture of Noah inside his Easter basket. The boys received these adorable baskets from Luke's Nina Cesi and Nino Tony. See Melita (Cesi) is very creative, she is right there with my mom in all her crafty ideas. Melita covers regular Easter baskets with batting and fabric with what the kids are in to at that particular time. This year Luke received a Transformers basket and Noah the Car's characters. She made one for Luke a few years back so I thought I would give it a try last year for Noah and my nephew Ayden's 1st Easter and let me tell you it is not an easy task...it takes time and quite a bit of patience. So when I opened the box I was so thrilled to see she sent them. Thank you again Melita and Tony!
