Three Egg Hunts, a Jury Trial and Jump Rope for Heart!

Sisters sisters through and through.  The girls spent a lot of time together in April doing some awesome things!  This summarizes these captured weeks quite well.

Cameron was top earner for Jump Rope for Heart!  Maddie went looking for money with her.


Here is our Easter Bunny Picture!


Here is our Easter outfits - check the nails!


I'm Queen of the Mountain...no I'm Queen of the Mountain!

I said I was!


No, I said I was!

Of course there was an egg hunt with face painting!





I am the bunny!

There is a First Time for Everything!

What a great weekend!  The girls experienced the arts this weekend at "Kidspalooza" and I have to say that they loved it all up!  From the Symphony to the Art Museum and everything in between!  It was such a pleasure to experience these firsts with the girls.  They are so unique and special.  Sigh.  Oh, pictures!

The girls drew the heart from the American Heart Association flyer to get a sticker!


This is a party game for sale, I was not making her do push ups.  I don't think Maddie is thrilled about the game.


It seems appropriate that the girls would choose to pose in front of old underwear, framed old underwear.  Their "First Time" at the Plaza theather and their "First Time" at the symphony.


Hanging out in the bathroom, at the Plaza Theater.


At first we had these front row seats, then the girls wanted to have balcony seats.


Yep, Twister in the park.  Maddie fell first.


Everywhere you go, face painting!


"First Time" at the art museum -- and they want to go back!


They wanted to add to the art with their funny faces. Yes, they got the same design for the face painting.

In Sickness and In Health

Let's face it, sisters are like spouses in many ways.  They laugh and have fun, they share, they fight...they are there to care for you and taunt you in sickness and in health.  Over Spring Break, we worked on "sickness."  And the girls came through for one another...well, take a look.
They laid around and watched shows together.


They consoled one another.

Maddie worked while Cameron played.


Then she slept, while Cameron played.


They both bowled, but Maddie got cutest picture.


Maddie dressed up!

Cameron grossed out!

They both were a little under the weather, but survived Spring Break!  Summer will be here soon enough!

Road Trip!

Well, recently we took a road trip to see Aunt Krista and Uncle Eric in Austin.  We drove back with Lita and let's all be clear, she looked fine at the end...I was a different story.  We made record time! Anywho, the girls love, love, love the relaxation of Aunt Krista's house -- so much less nagging by me when we are there and relaxed bedtimes...check it out.

Cameron falls asleep wherever she wants to.

Maddie gets to use everyone's computers.


As you can see, they change clothes and move from the couch very little.


And on the way there -- Rainforest Cafe!!

Getting Artsy

Both Cameron and Madeliene had fun making ceramics with Lita on Saturday!

Lita helped Maddie paint!

Cameron was pretty good on her own!



Apparently, this is very serious business and Maddie was seriously focused.


Cameron was very creative, but her methodical slowness, was a bit too slow-paced for mommy :)


She had a plan, though.

As the weekend continued on, apparently the artiness continued and Cameron and her friends wrote three songs -- headed to perform live in Austin coming soon!
