Trip to Memphis Zoo

On April 1st, Keely had to go to see Dr. Wheless and it's about a 2 1/2 hr. drive to Memphis. We decided to make the most of the day and go to the zoo. Kyan has never been and we love to go to zoos. It was a beautiful zoo, all of the exhibits are made to look like Mayan ruins. The panda exhibit was like stepping into China, it was magical to say the least. Keely was squealing and running when she saw the elephants, it is so sweet how excited she gets. Kyan loved it he couldn't stop saying awesome and amazing. He walked the whole way, well ran, and was so tired when we left. Hope you enjoy the show!

West Mississippi

So, if you know us, you probably know we love to go on drives and see new places. It's fun to see the different towns, or states and the neat things we come across. Even though the boys complain, and say "It's so boring", they get very excited when they find cool stuff too. This trip took us west to Arkansas, we had not been west of Hwy 55 in Ms yet so we decided to go. It was a really nice drive, beautiful hills and lakes along the way, and it was early spring so everything was turning green. We made it to the Ar. border and crossed the Ms river bridge, that was the same time it was flooding so bad from all of the snow storms up north. It was amazing how far out the river was on each side, and you could see tons of debris and whirlpools raging, it was almost eery. So we drove on about 20 miles and turned around, there was nothing to see, it wasn't the best trip for sightseeing, but we can say we've been! The pictures we took are from Greenville,Ms right on the border, we stopped at the visitors center because it was the neatest one we've seen. The kids thought the paddleboat theme was so neat. The picture of the "alligator head" was from a cypress tree park we stopped at too. It was actually a cypress stump, but man were the boys excited when they found an "alligator"!

Kyan's 3rd birthday

Kyan turned 3 on March 28th, and he had a fun day. He loved blowing out his candles but didn't want any lights on! He was setting the scene for his photos. He got a big boy bike and a basketball goal. He was very proud of the fact that he could slam dunk and make backward shots. He also got a train from his mawmaw and pawpaw which you can see he loved. His terrible twos also came on that big day, funny how that works. Just when you think he missed them they finally catch up! He just wants to be big like his brothers.

Snow Chaser 2

These pictures were from March 9th, when we actually got some snow at home! It was out of the ordinary for this area and we heard that there was more snow headed north, so we drove the Natchez Trace Parkway all the way up to Nashville. These are pictures from the waterfalls we found along the way in Tennesee. It was so much fun, cold but not bad, and the sun was shining making everything glisten. The kids were just as excited this trip as the last, and we made alot more memories!

Lot's to share

I have been horrible about posting as you can see. I am vowing that within the next week to have added the last 4 sets of pictures we have taken since January. Which will include another snow trip, Kyan's first trip to the zoo, and some birthdays. The end of another school year has arrived so I'm sure we'll have lots of summer fun to share as well!
