Watch Out Cardinals

Palm Sunday

Benjamin and I went to church for Palm Sunday and he was so excited about his palm he wanted to show everyone...it was really cute! Later that day we had family dinner so we did a little Easter egg hunting with my dad's side of the family as we won't see them on Easter.

 

Easter Egg-Citement

This is the second year that I have taken Benjamin to Eckert's for their Egg-Citement and they didn't disappoint. We went on a tractor ride, pet some ducks, made a cookie, had a picnic, got a photo with the Easter Bunny, and of course some egg hunting...he didn't want to leave at all.

 

Tractor Ride (yes he still sucks his fingers)

"Mom, I don't want a picture, I want my cookie"

 

Frisco Fun!

This past Friday night Henry Haupt invited Benjamin to one of his favorite places to hang out, a train store. On the second Friday of the month they keep the store open for a small entrance fee to play with all the trains and tracks. They also give you a train cookie to decorate with juice on the side. It was a blast, Henry loves this place so much that he is having his 3rd birthday party here!

Such good little boys

Opening Day!

Another opening day and it might have been rainy, but at least we won! After the game we went to scope out the new Ballpark Village with Katie and Jack...it was AWESOME!!!

Easter Activites

Yesterday Benjamin and I went to my sisters for some fun Eater activities. We made snacks and dyed eggs. We are all ready for the Easter bunny now...

Helping (making more of a mess!)

Nests!

Drawing on our eggs

Benjamin loves eggs so much he was trying to eat them

Yes, I took his clothes off so he didn't dye them :)

Our Easter baskets (so proud of myself on these!)

Fishing!

Granddad wanted to go fishing so we jumped at this opportunity to take Benjamin for the first time. We went to Maramec Spring Park in St. James this past Sunday and it was a perfect day to go, it was a little bit breeze in the shade but in the sun it was beautiful! Benjamin had interest for the first 15 minutes and then wanted to run around which was ok because I couldn't fish because I didn't have a license. Her are some photos of our fun...

Ready for the road trip!
