every captive thought

Happy Easter!  I hope you have had a wonderful weekend!  We have.  It stated out with some much needed hang-out time with Bean and Lindsay .  We've missed them.  We had dinner at an old soda shop and then hung out at home and caught up with each other while the boys played.  I love our sweet friends and am so thankful they have moved closer to Amarillo...only 2 hours away now!   Jamesie got his first big boy bike this weekend!  I think Brad and I were more excited than he was.  But he loves it and will be zipping around in no time. This morning we went to church with Mom, Dad, Carrie, Andy, Morgan and Madison.  Afterwards we went to Mom and Dad's for lunch and the egg hunt. I love my little Judie Bug! All my boys I'm crazy about this boy Jude gets help from his best buddy, Papa     Carrie, Morgan, Mom, Madison, Snuzi Lots of eggs!   My little family.  One more will be joining the hunt nex...

I hope you had a good Christmas.  Christmas day for us was just wonderful!  We woke up and Brad read in the Bible about Jesus' birth to the boys. Then it was time for presents.  The boys had so much fun! Trains, Trains and more Trains! He was one happy little boy! Excitement!   Next we went over to Nana and Papa's.     Farkle Play Doh with Madison Then we could not resist the snow any longer!  We let James have a quick run through the snow before lunch. Mom made a fabulous lunch of prime rib, potatoes, asparagus, hollandaise sauce, layered salad, Yorkshire pudding, and ham.  Yum, yum, yum.  After lunch Madison, Brad, James and I went back out into the snow. Where someone (ahem...Brad) started a snowball fight with our innocent, sweet, precious niece.  Rude. She held her own but I couldn't take it anymore.  I had to help her take him down.  Literally.  We won in the end.  Even James ...
