Orange Beach June 2010

We got to spend some time at the beach in June the five of us...and Gran and Grandaddy! We tried out a new condo and the kids loved the splash pad/infinity pools/and the beach! They are all little water bugs and it literally takes all of us to watch them in the pool!

This is my attempt to get a group picture of the kids....always a challenge to get everyone to cooperate...but I thought we got some good pictures nonetheless :)

Believe me when I say that time flies....

I know its an expression that we hear all the time...but I've really taken it to heart this last year. Trey had his preschool graduation and will moving on to Kindergarten in the fall. It seems like just yesterday that we brought his home from the hospital. Now, I'm excited about this new adventure he is about to start....I just wish he would slow down the "growing up" just a little :)

The Pirates--Tball 2010

We spent this spring at the ball park. Trey played for the Pirates and loved it! Jack and Parker also enjoyed his games because they got to play in the dirt and most of all, go to the concession stand...ring pops here we come!

He was so excited about his trophy...

More April Happenings...

Well..it was a pretty big deal around here this month because Trey lost his first tooth...bottom center....and he couldn't wait for the tooth fairy to come and visit him!

Here's a picture of the kids on their way to school...

Here's Parker and her allergy Dr. appointment.....I took her and Jack to have them allergy tested...We figured since Trey had so many food allergies it was a good idea to see if the two of them had any similar allergies. Well, yes they both had the same food allergies as Trey...What are the odds of that? Needless to say, the Fuqua family will not be enjoying any PB and J's anytime soon....so sad!

The Mayan Riviera---On Time!!

Well, waaay back in April part of the gang took a trip to the Mayan Riviera in Mexico....and it was on time! Us, the Walkers and the Tates went for four nights and it was beautiful! We can't wait to go back! Too many inside jokes to even think about listing here.......

Some More Egg Hunting...

Granna, Doc, Aly, Granny, and Poppa came down for lunch on Easter.....we hunted eggs in our backyard this time....

Parker and Aunt Aly

Trey checking to make sure Jack didn't get more than him....

Jack checking to make sure that Trey didn't steal any of his eggs.......and Parker oblivious to it all!

Ready for church....Easter Morning

The Easter bunny came!!!!!

The kids were so excited to wake up Easter morning and see what the Easter bunny brought....Of course, Trey had a zillion questions about how the Easter bunny gets in the house, will we hear him? , where does he live, etc....but once he saw the goodies all that didn't matter...it was a race to see who could open their candy the fastest....

Jack's ultra serious face.........

Comparing baskets....pulling "tradesies"......

Easter Weekend

We took the kids on Saturday to the city of Auburns big Easter Egg Hunt out at Kiesel Park...This was a HUGE egg hunt, they even had it divided out among age groups, etc...they had music, free cokes, the Easter bunny , balloons, food...it was a lot of fun!

Yes, Parker and Jack insisted on wearing their easter buckets on their heads....kinda hard to find eggs that way!

Easter Egg Hunts at School

It was a marathon of Easter Egg Hunts/parties at the kids Preschool on Thursday....it started out with Jack's class at 9:45..which was not so much a "hunt" as it was a "which kid can grab the most eggs strown about the grass the fastest"...they weren't exactly "hidden", but for "one year olds" it was just as exciting! Then I was off the Parkers class party/egg hunt at 10:30 (which was directly across the hallway). As always, Parker was rather shy about the egg hunting process....but once she figured out there was candy inside then all bets were off....Then I ran downstairs to Treys hunt at 11:30, whew! Trey's class actually had to look for their eggs out on the playground, but once they got to 12 eggs they had to stop looking....which actually turned out to be more of a counting lesson than anything else...those teachers sure are sneaky, slipping in learning while having fun! All the kids had a blast at their Easter festivities...an its only Thursday...we still have the weekend left!

Me and the Kids

Jack didn't want to participate, but Parker and Trey were o.k. getting a picture with dear ole mom...
