Easter Eggs!

What is this? I know that is what Maycee was thinking when I gave her this hard boiled egg. She just played with it for a while and banged it around a little. She was totally content playing with the boring white egg.

Kimberlen took her time in deciding what color and design she was going to put on each egg. She made one for her sister with her name on it and another for me and her dad.
And then just as I predicted the egg went in the mouth! This girl can't keep anything out of her mouth. On Easter Morning after Kimberlen found the eggs, Eric gave one to Maycee and she of course put it in her mouth and she started to turn pink. I did not know that the color would come off, so away went the egg and we had an unhappy little girl. By the way there are not pictures of Easter morning, I used the video camera instead.
How hard we are working on the preciseness of the decorated eggs.
I am a happy girl! I think she was just so excited to be able to be a part of this and act as if she were helping us with the eggs.

Tent Time

Kimberlen decided she wanted to set up her tent over spring break. Here is Maycee inside thinking she is pretty cute, which she is.

Kimberlen just had a great time with the tent. She slept in it every night. And she said she never got scared one time. Not even of the bears and monsters in the woods.

The two of them were so cut playing together. Of course Kimberlen keeps pretending that Maycee is her daughter. The best was when I could hear Kimberlen talking to Maycee and pretending that they were really camping.

Maycee kept going in and out and in and out. They had a bunch of blankets and pillows and kept giggling and laughing.

Bath Tub Toys

So we got some new bath toys and the girls just love them. Kimberlen spells words on the wall with the foam letters and Maycee just chews on them. But she is starting to get the idea that they stick to the wall.




Maycee loves taking a bath with her sister. As soon as the water turns on Maycee takes off to the bathroom. I hope she is always like this and loves the bath.

VEGAS!!!!

Yes we loaded up and headed out for the biggest Redneck convention that I've ever been to, a NACSAR race. We got to go down to Las Vegas where it was nice and warm to see Family and be amongst the crazy "Las Vagians". Here is a picture from the Strip where the Car Haulers had a parade on Thursday. It was a pretty neat sight to be able to see how big and shiny these trucks are. They did not have all the trucks but there were between 40 and 50 of them.

Eric had to take Maycee away from the Trucks because they were blowing whistles and honking there horns and she thought it was too loud.

On Friday we took the girls with us to watch the cars qualify for the race on Sunday. Maycee was so happy to be in the sunshine and see all the people. Here she has ear plugs in that did not last too long but we gave it a good effort.

Kimberlen thought it was a crazy place being at the race track. She was able to wear the big headphones that we were using on Sat and Sun so she thought she was pretty cool.

This was me and Eric of course, but we were standing right next to the wall on pit road. We had a crew member come up to us and ask us if he could take our picture for us and to make sure that we did not step on any of the hoses that were on the ground. It was really cool to be able to be on the other side of it all.

This is our driver Jeff Gordon coming up the pit road after practicing. This is how close we were to the cars. Totally awesome. (If your in to Nascar)

And this is the Pit Box for Jeff Gordon. This was us on Sunday before the big race. I couldn't believe that we could just sit right there just like the crew members do during the race.
This is just the other side of the previous picture.
This is the Jeff's car in the line-up for the start of the race.
And here he is discussing his care with the Crew Chief and members.
