Playing with Photoshop Again…

I love Photoshop!  Playing with photos in that application ranks right up there with a hot bubble bath at the end of the day.  I hate that today is the last day of
Spring Break and I can’t wear my flip flops because of this…

So I’ll stay inside, remembering that in 117 days I will be on the beach, and edit my pictures. 

***Once again, my camera has a mind of it’s own.  I can’t figure out how to get better clarity on some pictures that come out blurry.  I’ve tried sharpening, but that makes the pixels crazy! 

Does anyone knows how to un-bury a picture without making the pixels go crazy?

Allen American Hockey Game

Last night, we went to McDonald’s for dinner and the manager gave us 6 free tickets to the hockey game.  Score!  What a fun venue and game.  Carson loved the hockey!  Sarah on the other hand, could take or leave the hockey, but she enjoyed watching the girls dance and waving her flag. 

The Allen American’s won and they are on their way to the playoffs!

Go Allen Americans!

***My camera still has a mind of its own…Some of these pictures are not clear, but they are fun!

Very fun and spontaneous! 

Playdate and Lunch with our Cousins

My cousin was in town this week with her kids and they surprised us the other day and came over to play.  We also made fun little pizzas for lunch.

 

Lindy Kate, my cousin’s youngest daughter, is so itty bitty and precious.  Believe it or not, she is two and we are celebrating that she has finally made it on the growth charts!  Dewey says that she looks like a little who from Whoville.  Sooooo Cute!

Thanks Raylee and crew for a fun morning!

Blowing Out the Candles…

We went to Pops and Grammy’s house for St. Patrick’s day and to celebrate Pop’s birthday.  We enjoyed the weather, planted the garden, and had cake. 

 

 

I love this picture…even though it is blurry.  Sarah was so excited about having cake, she didn’t want to sit still to take a picture.  But I love Carson’s face.

Happy Birthday Pops!

Baseball Fever and a Cut Hand

We went to the Freshman baseball game to cheer on daddy’s players.  I love baseball games {almost as much as I love the beach} and I love the fact that the kids are getting old enough to enjoy them.  We had to leave early because Sarah cut her hand when she feel on the sidewalk.  After she cut her hand {and all the way home} she kept saying/screaming “I just couldn’t handle it because it is bleeding” or “I just can’t handle it because it is too much”.  It was quite funny and I had to laugh in order keep my own sanity. 

{I think we will be rethinking that whole…you can’t cry unless there is blood thing.} 

Before we left, I tried to go into the bathroom to wash up her hand and I’m sure everyone in Collin County could hear her screaming like no other {thank you echoing, because that is a word, bathroom for making it sound like I was beating her to death!!!}.  When we got home, we washed up her hand and she didn’t even need a band-aid. 

Dewey came home asking why she was screaming/crying and when he saw her hand, he said, “Seriously?!” and started laughing.

 

Happy Birthday Pops!

Stonebriar Playdate

Yesterday, we met one of my high school friends and her babies at the mall for playtime and lunch.  We had a blast playing, going to the Disney store {No, Sarah did NOT get the two piece Princess and the Frog swimsuit, but she did get a cute Minnie Mouse one that she will be sporting at the beach in 123 days}, riding the Merry-Go-Round, and grabbing a bite to eat. 

Thanks Brown family for a fun morning!

Dinner and a Park…

I love Spring Break!  It allows us time to relax and it allows us {quality} time to enjoy our friends {that sometimes seems impossible to do during the school year}.

We had friends over the other night for dinner and we took the kids to the park since the weather was gorgeous. 

Thank you Team Dell'Accio for a fabulous afternoon and dinner!

Saturday Morning on the McKinney Square
