Video of Boy's on Easter Sunday

Jason & Tyler on Easter

The kids had SO much fun singing on Easter Sunday! They sang a song called "Christian ABC's", and "I've Got a River of Life". It was so cute....although Tyler was a stinker, and poor Jason was next to the loudest singing child up there which majorly distracted him :(

This is so trippy for me, because I have frequently seen home videos of ME at this age singing on stage in church....and now my children are up there ♥





Making our Kitchen Garden!

The boy's baby snapping turtle



6th Anniversary in Myrtle Beach

Coffee for the road...our first "stop" :)


We went to Shoney's the first morning...just like on our honeymoon ♥

Jon's Plate...buffet....oh yeah...

And me....and the sweet mug of coffee...
And MY Plate...buffet...mmmmm...

At Ripley's Aquarium




"Medieval Times" Performance

Our "Knight" was the Red Knight...hence the red crowns and our red streamer!
He was "the knight of the king", so we had to cheer extra hard for him...and he ended up being the last knight standing, and faught the evil dude along side of the prince!
GO RED KNIGHT! WOOOHOO!

This is the balcony in the main Hall, at the Tournament! We waited here before we were brought to the arena (and our tables/seats). There was a gift shop, a "dungeon" horror house, bathrooms (THANKYOU says the preggo lady....), and a bar for drinks (NO THANKYOU says the preggo lady)

Here is us! Waiting in the main hall...and starving...

This was a huge mural in the hall, above one of the bars. It was amazing!

Now for the grub! We were denied silverware, so everything we ate was hands-on literally! The bowl and plate were solid metal, but our cup was plastic. We got "Dragons blood" soup (uh, tomato/veggie soup), Dragon egg (an herb baked 1/2 potato), Baby Dragon (half an herb roasted chicken), Dragon Rib (a spare rib), then a royal pastry for dessert (Apple-filled flaky croissant thing). It was DELICIOUS!

The princess...who was the WORST actress ever...but she was pretty :)

Our Red Knight

All the knights together, ready to start the tournament! They had sword fighting, lancing, and sheild & chain/ball thing. They also had to snag a ring with their lances, and then throw a spear into a target. It was awesome and the horses did BEAUTIFUL!

There was a storyline, but it was kinda lame...but in between tournament games and the storyline, they brought the andalusian horses out for lots of tricks and footwork...they were fantastic to watch IRL!

Jason's 5th Birthday!

Tyler found a big mint green gladiator helmet....
Here's the party!
Singing "Happy Birthday"...I guess we were out of tune???
Jon with the cake
Aren't the candles awesome? All squigly and whatnot
Here is our biggest gift for Jason...the box came in the mail 2 weeks ago and Jason has been itching to open it ever since....
A WORLD GLOBE! He has a fascination with geography and wasn't quite grasping the concept of where things are in reference to the world being round :)
Micah just loved the box!
Here are my sweet boys ♥
Jason got a mug for drinking "milk coffee" with daddy
Uncle Timmy gave him awesome dragon pajamas!
The girls gave him a "school kit" since this year he will be starting kindergarden *GASP*
The Rovers and us got him DVD's...little einsteins!
From the girls...animal crackers (which we ALL have been enjoying....)
Checking out his bounty :)
