Grandma and Grandpa's House - Tallahassee, FL.

After our stay at the beach we headed north to Tallahasse to spend time with Bob and Myra and Jess, Brian and Kelsey. We had such a good time seeing everybody and Charlie loved playing with his cousin Kelsey.

I took the boys over to Marshall Mesa for a little "hike". Charlie loves to run around and explore and climb EVERY rock - such a boy. And Henry is really itching to join him. The best part (or worst) was that we saw a snake. Thankfully not a rattlesnake, which we've seen on this trail before. He was right in the middle of the trail, so I kicked some rocks and it finally decided to let us pass. Charlie LOVED it! He said, "Take snake home now mommy??? Snake back home with us??" Obviously the answer to that was a big NO! When we got in the car he said, "Bye bye snake, see you later! " For those of you don't know, I am a little terrified of snakes. This one was OK because I was pretty sure it wasn't venomous and I saw it before I was too close to it. He was pretty cool at a distance, and we could barely see him once he was in the grass, I might have walked right by him.
I also included some pictures of the planters that Alex built for us. I'm very proud of them and so excited to watch our veggies grow! Charlie has been helping me garden a little too, but he mostly likes the digging part, so it has been a bit of a challenge keeping all our soil in the planters. He really loves to water them and always gets himself SOAKED!

Easter Morning






The Easter Bunny brought Charlie a cool new fire truck that lights up and makes all kinds of cool noises. Henry got a set of stacking cups that he also seems to enjoy. They both got some cute organic t-shirts (Charlie showed his off for the camera!) and a new set of big stacking blocks. We had a great Easter. Charlie asked me today if the Easter bunny was coming again in the morning.

Easter egg hunt









Charlie got to participate in an Easter egg hunt hosted at a local school. It was fun but frantic with hundreds of kids separated into age groups. Charlie found a golden egg, which he turned in for a pin wheel. Henry got in on it too but by then all the eggs were found. We replayed the hunt at our house later...i hope we found all the eggs.
