Monday and Easter is in the Air!!

Monday's at the Copenhaver house

My ballerina, Chloe, has dance class on Mondays. She has a love/hate relationship with the whole dance experience. When I say, you have dance today,~~ YEAH~~, she says, "I don't want to go!!". But, when we get there this little baby lights up and when I pick her up an hour later she askes, "When do I go to dance class again?" Her dance recital is in May, and she has no idea what being on stage is going to be like, stay tuned, this could be interesting.

Chloe loves to turn the camera on Mommy. I can never take a picture of her without her wanting to take one of me, so here you go........Mommy in her everyday form.

I totally have SPRING FEVER!! I am getting the house decorated for Spring, making wreaths, getting Easter clothes and baskets ready, and all I want to do is take drives and see all the beautiful tulips in bloom. Tulips make me happy! I made a trip to Hobby Lobby today, and saw these. I thought, well hey, there's me and Larry. Me--the cute bunny, Larry--the CHICKEN....HA!!!

Since we don't have a family photo, yes I know, pathetic huh? I thought this bunny and chick (me and Larry) would go great below the picture of the 3 kiddo's. And this is a family photo. Ha ha, I'm just way to funny!! In offense to that, Larry and I don't take good pictures at all, but we will be going to see my favorite photographer Sue Lackey in the next couple months.

Any seasonal decorations I put out Chloe thinks they are her new toys, so I had to snap a few shots of her and this adorable little bunny. What a great Monday, and Spring day at the Copenhaver's.

Bedtime

On Saturday night this is what I came to bed to........

Daddy was laying on the couch watching tv tonight, and Chloe and Izaak decided they wanted to join him on the couch. Being that there wasn't enough room, they took the snuggling to our king size bed. Notice Curious George and Pinky Bear, Chloe never sleeps without something in bed with her. She has these already packed in the suitcase for our trip this weekend. I love being a mommy and wife and coming to bed to see this......3 of my loves! My big baby (Natalie) was not interested in the snuggling the Teen Choice Awards were on!!

SPRING BREAK

Spring Break at Little Sahara State Park

Thank you honey!

Daddy on his Raptor, cruising the dunes.

Uncle Chris, Larry, and Kyle

Relieved that they are still alive after a few days at Little Sahara.

And the race is on....and here comes pride in the back stretch......

Daddy and Izaak watching the races.

Izaak loved watching the guys doing wheelies at the races, check the guy out on the right hand side.

And when we weren't riding, Izaak was playing in the sand.

Mommy hung with the guys at Little Sahara, but I have to say I was really disappointed we couldn't go to the beach. We'll be going in May for Mommy's birthday!! YEAH!!
