I just had a busy but fun 4 day weekend with my boys, but before I share what we did…let me back up to recap some of the week.
Easter Monday I woke up and went downstairs to start a load of laundry and this is what I walked into!
An Easter Miracle!! Thank You Chris…this is seriously a rare thing…I’m pretty sure it’s never happened before…no laundry!!

We had a relaxing morning at home and then I went into the salon to do my sweet friend Emily’s hair for her bridal portrait..
This pic was our inspiration for her style…can’t show you her pics yet!!!

Laura gave me my Birthday present on Sunday…a new SC hat and tee!! I sported it to the ball field Monday evening to watch Maddox practice tee ball! Thank you LaLa!!


Cute bathed boys in matching pajamas!!

I worked Tuesday Wed and Thursday….very long days. Cuddling on the couch at night was the only time I was home to spend with the boys during those 3 days….hurts my heart. He is getting so big…his legs will be longer than mine before long.
Friday morning, Chris headed to Georgia Southern for a coaches clinic and was gone until Saturday evening. So Friday morning at 10:30 I decided to take the boys to Carowinds. Maddox has been asking to go all Winter and poor thing just couldn’t understand they are closed in the winter. So we threw on some clothes, swung thru Chic-fil-a drive thru, had our season passes made and was riding rides by 1:00. The boys did so well!! I have never taken them by myself so I didn’t know how it would go…but we had a great time!! I was so proud of them I treated them with a chocolate milk shake for the ride home!!


I ask Maddox if I could take his picture and this is how he posed…melt my heart! Now if we can just get Ryder trained for the camera!!

Riding the sky tower…they are so focused!!

Ryder’s first time on the swings!! He was barely tall enough…honestly he was about 1/2 in too short but they let him ride anyway!

Carousel



Ryder’s first roller coaster!!



Maddox was wanting to be so independent…he wouldn’t ride with us…he wanted a section of the train to himself!!

Ryder wanted a seat to himself…sweet boy with his hands crossed.

Waiting in line for the balloons! Silly boys!

Fly high Maddox!!
We came home..changed clothes and played a few minutes and we were off again.
Andrea and Shep’s Gender Reveal Party!…It’s a GIRL!!! I’m so happy Laura and Andrea are having girls!!!


Big Brother Taylor!!
Saturday morning was an early tee ball practice for Maddox and then we headed to Chic-fil-a for a lunch play date!

The boys had fun playing with Brayden and Brody!!


So glad Maddox is such a loving little boy!!



water break!!

Brody is such a sweet little boy!
Saturday evening, Chris came home and we ate and all played outside like little kids until it was completely dark!! Soaking us this warm weather we finally have!! So thankful it is Spring and starting to feel like it!!


The sweetest moments!!
The rest of the weekend was lots of playing outside! This warm weather and time with my boys makes it really hard to go back to work. It makes me once again dream of being a SAHM. I am just so thankful for the days I am at home with them…so blessed!


Ryder cracks me up riding this big 4 wheeler. He has to sit cock eyed on it to be able to reach the peddle…you can see how high up his other foot is!

Nice outfit…Maddox!


Doing some serious dirt playing!!





Monday after Preschool and MMO…we picked up lunch and headed to the park!!
