Spring Additions...

The girls and I had to run an errand to the mall today. Madeline had her eye exam and her eyes dilated...so we had some time to waste before going home to do school (she couldn't see!) We ended up at Old Time Pottery...the girls and I found some great deals :)

We have been in this house over 4 years and have never had a wreath on the front door...you can imagine how excited the girls & I were!!! It was only $9.50 including the door hanger!!

This was for the kitchen table...only $4.99

This is our first year with these...we also got the Miss Patty Cake DVD to go along with it!

The fresh strawberries we got in Plant City...our pickers are about to clean them :)

They did a fine job and we look forward to enjoying them this weekend :)

Strawberry Festival

We had a great afternoon at the festival...the weather was warm yet breezy! We ate, rode some rides and before you knew it...5 hours passed by! It was so crowded...especially being a Monday!

Here we are after eating our Strawberry Shortcake!

Mia gives the thumbs up on the corndogs...it was $18 for four of them...wow, can you believe it?

This is where we got our shortcake...this one allows you to make your own. It is a Catholic Church...it had two lines that were both stacked up!

Yummy...there they are creating that delicious treat!

Our two Strawberry Shortcake sisters :)

Madi's painted on strawberry!

Some of the entertainment...this one was Native American

Their first ride...the swing...

...weee, this is so fun!

In the ag tent...we saw sheep...

little lambs...

Bunnies...I love these even though I am allergic :)

This one reminds me of the Cadbury bunny!

The girls loved these because they laid an egg!

A field trip picture...this was actually a school day!

Mia's field trip picture!

We did not ride this...just thought it was a cool picture :)

The girls rode the school bus in the air!

Daddy & Mia on the slide :)

Remembering lives lost on 9-11

This was a cool illustration of sowing & reeping!

Last ride...the swishy tugboat :) It was only like $25 for them to ride 3 or 4 rides...can you believe it??!!!!

Another entertainment venue

This was one of the best parts of the day...and it was so cheap! For just 25 cents this was the best foot massage ever!!

Here we are back at home with lots of strawberries for smoothies and some strawberry shortcake this coming weekend!! :)

We have "Sparks" for Jesus!!!

Our "Sparkies" are now official...they have both graduated into the club and got their cards, vest and books! They are so excited and we are so proud of them for working so hard!!

This was crazy hat night...also notice that they got their hair cut...Madeline's is much shorter w/layers and Mia mainly got a trim :)
