Holiday Weekend

We were pretty busy over the weekend with all the fun activities we had planned.  Ella and I missed out on Saturday's activities because she was sick, but Avery and Tim had so much fun together!

Avery's Easter Bunny sack from school with the eggs from their hunt


this princess all dressed up!!

celebrating passover at mollye & brian's on friday night.  it was such a nice evening all together at their place!  had to take a pic of avery finally eating, I mean barely putting to her lips something green!


saturday morning fun at where she goes to preschool. tim did a great job taking lots of pics for me on saturday so i could see everything they did and live vicariously through them!! they had an easter egg hunt, pony rides, face painting...they were busy.  lots of eggs!



and lots and lots of kids.  her school is in a church and so that's who put it on.

look at this sweet face. so happy to have a basket full!




she really wanted to ride on the brown pony so daddy made sure she got it!  isn't that what daddy's are for :)


after the easter festival they went to earthfest across from our neighborhood.  they had kayaks that you could take out on the pond so tim and avery were all over this activity. 

they patiently waited for an hour to get on the pond!



in the kayak with smiles from aves


saturday night tim and i went to a fabulous outdoor dinner across the street.  tim is on the committee for it and has been working hard on it.  they had all the food, drinks donated by local producers and the food was Delicious!!  i couldn't stop eating the deviled eggs, fried chicken, all the apps, homemade donut holes for dessert, etc.  i wish someone would cook for me like that every night!

it was such a beautiful night and beautiful setting

just one of my plates for the night.  the devil egg station had about 11 toppings you could choose from to put on your eggs and the most fabulous beef bacon i've ever tasted!  and, speaking of beef...they had a raffle for all sorts of things but the big raffle was for a 1/4 of a cow, wagyu beef.  well, turns out that tim and i won that 1/4 cow and now we will have beef FOREVER :)    so, please come over for a bbq anytime!

Kristen & Kevin's Wedding Weekend

Kristen & Kevin got married the last weekend in March down in the Hill Country and it was such a beautiful weekend!   We have so much to share:

On our way down we did a quick coffee and potty break at MickeyD's and Avery got a My Little Pony doll from Daddy. I think this might have made her trip!


The rehearsal was in the afternoon because the place was having a wedding that night.  It was such a gorgeous place to get married


 
All the girls watching the rehearsal


Since we had the afternoon to kill, we headed over to Nutty Brown for some mid-afternoon lunch/snacks.  The girls got to play around in the sand box and the adults got to catch up!

 The girls were having fun with the camera!



Ready for the rehearsal dinner


 

At the rehearsal dinner...Aves joined the Jurney fam!
















Saturday we all went up to Driftwood Winery to spend some downtime before the festivities began.  Great views, weather, wine and company!

The kids were such sports!

This kid too!

These guys are such goofballs!



Serious goofballs!

Then, my camera died so can't wait to see the pics from the reception.

Stopping for gas on the way home...she sure does look cheery and excited!

This one on the other hand looks like she could pass out :)  and, she did (for a little while at least!)
