Easter Weekend

 We are finally recovering from a busy weekend.
 The kids didn't have school on Friday so we headed down to Sawgrass bright and early to spend a fun morning on the beach with all of our cousins.


After a few hours playing on the beach we headed back to Aunt Sandra's house for a delicious lunch.
The kids all modeled their Argentina T-shirts that Baba and Aunt Sandra brought back.


Saturday we went set off on a boat ride.....
to celebrate Wiley coming into town and the exciting news of an engagement 

"A three four hour tour, a three four hour tour...."
Cue lightning.
and that's all i have to say about that matter
Let me introduce you to the cast of As The World Turns

We were super excited that the Easter bunny remembered to come by our house,  
of course he/she brought Legos
(is the EB a boy or a girl?)


I'm not quite organized enough to have my children dressed in their Easter outfits for the egg hunt, it was all i could do to get my contacts on and find my camera

My adorable God-Baby
Jonathan McKinnon Collins Jr
was baptized Easter Sunday at St Marks during the 11:00 service

I Love this family
There was a sweet reception/ Easter lunch at Biba and Erik's house afterwards
 Roe liked to be the entertainment

We planned this

April with the Alexanders

We have had a great month, the weather has been beautiful and we have spent plenty of time outside enjoying things before it gets to hot around here.

Uncle John gave Roe and his buddy Charlie a fun tour of all the big tractors at John Deere

Wedding weekend

April 2, 2011
Sierra Finnegan and Kevin Clemmons
were married at The Cloister in Sea Island

Ted and I stayed at the Sea Palms Golf and Tennis Resort
it was a bit dated, but clean and the price was good.
Above was the view from our patio.
 The rehearsal dinner was a Low Country Boil which included a cocktail cruise on the
Cloister Belle

March

So, March was a big month. 
We went to they keys, we got the news we were going to have a new little cousin in the fall, and we celebrated lots of birthdays!
 Roe is the best little helper EVER!
It was a great treat when Uncle James and Mary Jane, and Ray, Jon and Baby McKinnon all came to town to celebrate the "March Birthdays"
We were sad Preb and Teddy didn't make it. :(

 Six of us celebrate our birthdays in March.
We also have 5 birthdays that i can think of between Oct 13 and Nov 13
this seems like another real fun reason to celebrate!
