They are out to get us!!

Yesterday I took a quick little trip to Ross. I had Ezra with me and he actually did pretty well. We had a typical shopping experience. After browsing around for 30 minutes or so, I took the cart up to the check out counter. Nothing abnormal there. The man was nice - chatted with me about the tornado warnings - I asked there return policy - paid and was done. So the sliding doors open wide, and I make an effort to push my cart with my 35 lb. (plus some) child, and two purchases through the door way. UGH..stuck. Ok, I didn't push hard enough ..this is a little embarrassing I thought. So I stuck my foot down on the bottom of the cart as I tried to push and lift it over whatever we had got caught on. No luck.. the cart didn't budge and it came back and hit my shin. Ouch. Right then the lady said in her southern drawl "Ma'am, the buggies don't go outside." I was struck by confusion. What?? Since when does a cart (known in the south as a BUUUUGIE) not go outside? It can't physically go outside or they don't want it out there?? She obviously saw my confusion and she continued "The wheels lock up." I don't have much to say except a very confused "WHAT????" Has anyone heard of this before.. because this is new to me.

Easter Bunny

Ezra was totally into the Easter Bunny this year. I thought he might freak out .. but he was so excited. When he spotted him walking down the mall up to the 'photo spot' he went crazy.. as you can see in the pictures. I think once he got in his lap he got a little shy. When he was done and we were walking away he kept mumbling in a sad voice "bunny, bunny".

That night when he went to bed I made the mistake of telling him a story about the Easter Bunny. He totally cried and cried when I was done and wouldn't sleep. I heard him in his crib crying "Bunnnny, Bunnnnnnnnny". Love that kid.

The Bunny's been spotted.

Up close and personal.

super awesome show--

The Hanson show was great. As we were in line waiting for the doors to open all three of them walked a foot away from us into the club. The show was an 'in the round' style. Each song writer takes a turn and plays a song..so it was really intimate. They performed with three other people. It was great. We sat on the floor right in front of the stage.

guess who I'm hanging with tonight?!

Ike, Tay and Zac HANSON!!!

Ok, maybe not exactly 'HANGING' with.. but I will do my best. ;) It was announced TODAY that Hanson will be at tin pan south TONIGHT! My sister and I are totally hitting it up. What an amazing surprise!

We love our boys! Now.. just help us figure out how we're going to get my ALMOST 21 sister into a 21+ show. ;) I just hope we don't spend the night in jail for these guys. Haha. Just kidddding.

Tornado watch mama and two little boys...

We've been under tornado warnings today. I took the two little boys to cover in the tub. What a scary thing! The news doesn't help at all either. Thankfully we've got Jesus on our side.. and the warning is over for us this time. I'm looking out the window right now and the rain is pouring down so hard it looks like a river flowing down my street. The type of rain where you'd be soaking wet after stepping out for only a split second. They are evacuating some homes in Spring Hill due to flooding. These are the days I appreciate not having to leave my home to go to work.
