San Antonio

Over spring break we traveled to San Antonio to see our friends Anna, Claire and Julie. We had a fantastic time!

Playing with Claire's dolls




Swinging!



Having fun at the park




Riverwalk!


Alamo


If this isn't the funniest picture, I don't know what is!


Fun playtime

Mission Concepcion



This little guy tested the acoustics in the chapel. Hence why we are now outside.





It was great to spend time with friends we don't get to see very often. Thanks Anna, Claire and Julie for opening your house up to us and showing us a great time!

And here's a few more shots from Anna:

Spring Break

We had a nice, relaxing spring break. As you can see, the dogs took it upon themselves to relax as well.




Mimi sent some clover seeds for St. Patrick's Day.
Nathaniel had a good time planting them with Daddy.




We also took a great trip to San Antonio to see some friends - more pictures of that later!

Reading the Paper

Guess someone wanted to catch up on the news. :)




Notice on the last shot he is just pushing it to the ground. That's more like it.

Nathaniel and Otis

Caught Nathaniel as he got up on the couch and snuggled with Otis. I'm surprised Otis tolerated it this long!

Mr. Manners

I have to brag a little. After lots of reminding Nathaniel about "please" and "thank you" he seems to have really caught on and has been doing an excellent job with his manners. The past several days he has been asking "Please, Mommy, milk" or something similar. It is SO sweet. And even if I just help him with something simple, he has been saying "Thank you." And if he brushes by Otis he says "Excuse me, Otis."

Anyways, some of you might not be that impressed, but it is so sweet for a mommy to hear the words after lots of work. Now I know he might regress, but I will enjoy it for now!

Oh, and lately as Will has been leaving in the mornings, he will tell Nathaniel that he loves him, and then Nathaniel will yell right as Will is walking out the door "Love you Daddy!" It is adorable. I have a few more stories and pictures I need to post as soon as I get some free time. :)
