Yesterday we found a beautiful little mountain town

Daddy taught Brynn how to throw the stick for Bodee...
This led to endless fun for both of them...
And even a very cold adventure into the lake to get the stick herself...
With great success and a sense of accomplishment! What would we do without Daddy's life lessons.

You can't blame me for taking pictures of these faces all day!

From ballarina to dirt...

Thanks to Auntie Amy, this is Brynn's new favorite outfit!

Two Peas in a Pod

I hardly hear these two laughing harder than when they are playing together.


The best medicine to cure a cranky little girl is an adorable sister that's all smiles hugging on you and giggling. Neither of them have any defences against that one.

More Fun Easter-ness

We thought Uncle Matt might get a kick out of this one. We miss you!!



After church-lunch-nap we went on an Easter egg hunt from one end of the park, through the stream (many times) to the other end of the park. There's nothing quite like finding a bunch of eggs filled with treats. Brynn stopped every time she found an egg to try to persuade us to let her eat the entire contents before moving on. Fortunately for her, daddy and Selah started finding some eggs, and her predictable, competative spirit kicked right in.

Easter Sunday

Here are the girls enjoying the beautiful weather and our front yard tulips on Easter Sunday. Noni gave them these very special Easter dresses. These pictures are priceless!!


Brynn is just over 2 and Selah is 8 months old.

Climbing Trees is Totally Rad

Beautiful North Carolina in the Spring at the Park

Pony tales are fun!
Selah's not too sure what Mom's up to...
Brynn - on the other hand- can't get enough of the slides. The faster and longer the better.
Sheer happiness!

Personalities!!!

We have no lack of personality in our family. Both girls have many different sides to them. Selah is a comedian - she loves to get people to laugh at her, so she's always coming up with new funny faces to get us to giggle.
But then sometimes she's very serious and contemplative. She always wins the staring contest around here.
Brynn is not often caught standing still unless she's watching someone's every move so she can learn a new trick. She loves climbing on rock climbing walls (she must get that from Uncle Mark) and balances very well on a beam.
Oh - and she's also completely potty trained - praise the Lord!!! She hasn't had an accident in weeks...which is exciting since we have people coming over all the time to look at buying our house. (Sorry no picture for this one - I thought about it though:)


Selah's crawling all over, except on our hardwood floors she pulls herself everywhere. Auntie Laura would be very proud of her army crawl!
