It's been a busy spring so far. Mark is training for the 2012 BP MS150. For those of you unfamiliar with the ride, it's a bike ride from Houston to Austin benefiting the National Multiple Sclerosis Foundation. The ride is on April 21-22. He'll start out in Waller TX and end up at the Texas state capitol building in Austin. Every Saturday he goes on training rides that vary from40-60 miles. The kids and I will be going up there to meet him at the end of the ride. This will be my first road trip with both kiddos by myself, so say a little prayer for us on that day if you remember! LOL.
Last weekend we went to the Brookwood Community's annual Breakfast with the Bunny. Brookwood is a local residential facility and vocational program for adults with disabilities. It's a wonderful place and this is our second year to help support their mission. I learned they have a breakfast with Santa also, so I think we'll be heading down there in December this year as well.
We also went to the annual Easter Egg hunt at St. Peter's, where Evelyn's school is. She had a wonderful time, although I have to say that having an egg hunt in 85 degree weather is a bit uncomfortable! Tanner was a sweaty baby by the end.
Tanner is 4 months now and he's learning new things every day. It's so amazing to watch him see the world for the first time! I'm not sure I've ever seen a happier baby and Evelyn was a really happy baby! He's just been an amazing addition to our family. Evelyn is a super big sister and really hasn't had any real jealousy problems. I think the fact that we had a boy made a difference. she's still mommy and daddy's little girl and she still retains her position as princess of the house.
The little angels are getting restless, so I'll have to cut out for now :-)
I added some pictures to a slideshow, so take a look (and now that I know how to do it, I'll do it more often!)
Hope everyone has a blessed Easter!
The McGraw's!
