Black Mountain Easter Egg Hunt



Saturday, our town had an Easter Egg Hunt for kids of all ages.
Literally kids of all ages, there was an adult hunt after the kids hunt.
The above picture is of Ruby in the jump house.  She would not get out of this thing.
They sent in groups of 5 for a good 5 or 10 minutes.  When Ruby's time was up,
she stood in the far corner of the jump house.  Larry had to go in after her.
Here is Ruby enjoying a little face painting.
Isn't she beautiful!?

Yes, I take too many pictures of her.

It was an extremely windy morning.  
Here is Larry with his bunny.  I am not sure why he
asked for a bunny.  The other 2 boys opted for reptiles.

Savannah had a lizard painted on.  Looks a lot
like an ancient cave drawing.  Seriously, these women
do a fabulous job with the crowd that they had to put up with.

Ethan originally wanted a dragon.  He was quite descriptive, but the
lady was able to talk him into the same little lizard.

He acted like she was going to hurt him.  I thought it was
hilarious.

My happy boy had a snake painted on.  He had me take
a picture so he could see his snake.  What would these kids do
without digital cameras?

The local fire department was there showing off their truck.
My kids were mesmerized with how large the tires were.
As tall as Ethan actually.
Ruby with her balloon sword.
Larry and the bunny.  Larry was my only child who would
cooperate and go to the bunny.

I don't have any pictures of the actual egg hunt.
Funny story, the kids were separated into 3 age categories
in three different fields.  And all these egg hunts were
going to start at the same time.  Aaahhhhhh.
So Larry took the 3 older kids to their field while
I took Ethan and Ruby to their two fields.
I stayed with Ruby, but tried to make sure Ethan stayed on
the side closest to me.
Ruby had no clue what to do.  The first minute she was
more thrilled with her basket.  So I realized I 
would actually have to help the girl out rather than
take photos.  I had to literally come to an egg and put her basket down.
I think after 3 eggs, she realized what to do.

Apple Festival

OK,  I was too excited to wait on this new post.  We went to the Hendersonville Apple Festival this afternoon.  We have lived here 2 years and this was our first time going.  It was fun.  People had their crafts for sale and of course, lots of apples.  Anyways, center stage, a band was performing old rock n roll music.  We stopped to take a break and enjoy ice cream.  While sitting there, a square dancer asked Larry Denzil to be her partner in the square dancing routine.  Talk about a laugh, I hope you guys enjoy the pictures.  Did I forget to mention that the Hurts were in for a visit? Ok, here is Larry Denzil having a great time square dancing. I think he has found his true calling. Here is little Larry relaxing during the bands gig. Here is Larry Denzil and the little old lady who asked him to be her partner.  Poor thing, I do not think she read the back of his shirt.  He had the number  7 and at the top it said Baby Maker.  This was his work soft ball shirt. He is actually enjoying...

What on Earth!? How can you not stop and smile?

This morning I woke up and felt really good and energized. I was just ready to start the day. I had a little fun on the wii fit at 5:30Am before waking the kids.   A Valentine's gift from a dear husband.  I love video games and well, you might as well exercise while playing. Afterwards, I started with my chores.  Just trying to tackle  one room at a time.  The first room I cleaned was the children's living room.  Why did I choose this room? I knew Ethan & Ruby would play and watch TV, but I had no idea they would do this!? Here is a darling Ruby Isabella exhausted and asleep after her mayhem and destruction. Yes, that is toilet paper all over the floor. An entire roll they managed to toss all over the living room. They also got a hold of the baby bath and made some bubbles in  the boys bedroom, and got a hold of the lotion and squirted it all over  the footboard on my bed.  Where am I during all this? Feeling really good because I had washed, dried, and folded 4 loads of la...
