Tallahassee Again- Easter and the Ropes Course one last time

After spending time in south Florida, we returned to Tallahassee to see family again before we 

head west. The cousins had so much fun together. They did yoga, baked and painted with Grandma. 

Asher helped rake leaves. He was super excited to use his tools again that Mrs. H gave him.

 I was able to sneak away with Alecs and Elena for a quick photoshoot. This is my favorite.

The kids did their first construction project at Home Depot with Alecs. They built this planter holder with a hammer and nails, then painted it and put the chalkboard sticker on. It was a fun project. We will have to keep an eye out for Home Depot events!

For Easter, we watched Alecs walk the runway at Bells Fashion Show, then we all went to Bass Pro to see the Easter Bunny and partake in their egg hunt. That was a fun experience, and a great marketing concept. The kids had to find 7 eggs hidden throughout the store, but could only find one per department. 

The following week we went to the Tallahassee Parks and Rec Easter Egg Hunt. 17,000 eggs were scattered and separated by age bracket. The hunt itself lasted about 30 seconds, but the kids still thought it was fun. The day before Aunt Elena and I had created our own scavenger hunt for the kids at the house. We hid three eggs in each area, one contained a clue to where the next set of eggs were hidden. That one lasted about 10 minutes and was their favorite. 

Of course the most important part of our Easter was when I told the kids the real story of Easter and how
Jesus died to save us all and how he rose and conquered death. The amazement on their faces was priceless.
 It was such an amazing experience to share this with them and see them get it, I cried. They both said a
prayer to ask Jesus to live in their hearts. When Daddy came back from his run, they told him all about it.

Grandpa and Grandma came to Tallahassee for our Key West trip. Before we left, we had to return one
last time to the ropes course. It was nice for them to get to see the kids do their new favorite activity. 

This time they needed zero help or instruction!

Journey did the tight rope for the very first time! She was not afraid at all. She kept letting 

go with one hand to give high fives and thumbs up, even bouncing on the line at one point! 

She rocked it!
