Nothing like snow in April in Georgia over spring break....

I'm shocked to see snow this morning! Not that it is going to stick or anything, but still in April?!? and in GA?!? I've lived here off and on for the last 18 years and have never seen snow in April! The girls were so excited that they put on their jackets and ran outside. I guess when you only see snow once, maybe twice a year you get a little excited. Of course, it's supposed to be in the mid-70s again by Thursday, so I'm sure we'll all be a little under the weather soon...yuck!

Easter Pictures!

Easter Egg Hunt

Visiting the Tellus Science Museum...

We decided to go to the Tellus Science Museum in Cartersville today. It was so much fun that we decided to become members. Here are some pictures and here is a link to the rest of the pictures!

Playing around at the dentist's office before Summer's appointment.

Ok, because some of you asked, pictures of me and the kids on a bike ride...

We went to the bike trails near our house today and I asked Heather to take some pictures for me. So here is the link to the pictures.

We've had a very busy day!

First of all, Heather and I went to the state capitol for virtual education day to push our senators to vote to keep public virtual education. It was a long morning, driving in with rush hour traffic and searching for parking. We got t-shirts and waited in line to meet our senator, but after waiting in lines for almost an hour, we decided just to move on to our next activity, which was gathering for a rally and getting a group picture taken. Heather met a couple of sisters and they were inseparable for most of the day. We finished up at the capitol and went to the Varsity for lunch with Heather's new friends. After that, Heather and I went to a bike shop and I picked out my new bike! I've been outside ever since we got home riding my bike with the kids, with Summer on the back. When I told Summer I was finished with riding the bike, she screamed and cried, she wanted to stay out longer. I'm hoping that we'll all have fun this year riding bikes together!

Changing beds....

We moved the top bunk out of Amber's room and into Summer's room today. So, Summer is now in a twin size bed instead of a toddler bed!!! Amber is all alone in the full size bottom bunk, and Heather has officially moved into our guest bedroom! We have 2 twin beds in the guest room, so one is Heather's and the other one is for company. If both beds are needed, she'll have to pick another room to sleep in, at least until we finish the basement and put our guest room down there.

Here are some pictures of my sleeping little girl and Amber in her bed without a bunk on top.

(Summer's new sheets were still in the laundry when it was bedtime, so we made do...lol.)

Heather had her 2 bottom teeth pulled.....

Her teeth have been loose forever and they just wouldn't come out.
She went to the dentist for a cleaning and he just went ahead and pulled them out!
Heather's looking forward to the tooth fairy tonight!

Amber's newest dress....

Amber picked out the fabric, and Mommy did the sewing.

Another trip to the Tennessee Aquarium and Rock City
