Pretty Proud of Myself!

I spent the last part of this weekend making window treatments for our newly painted Den. I am very proud of the way they turned out. Granted they are just panels, but I thought surely they would be crooked or hang weird. Alas, they turned out decent, and I even lined them! I love this fabric so much that I could drape my entire house with it. I think I am ready to tackle the roman shades next!

Neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt

We were very fortunate in that the neighborhood Easter egg hunt and party was located in our cul-de-sac this past weekend. We had a bounce house, face painting, egg dying and a bathroom right where we wanted them!

As a bonus we got to keep the bounce house the ENTIRE weekend. Saturday night was fun for the kids and the adults!

Because Blogger is not being very cooperative, the pictures are a little out of order.

Here are Wylie and Mary Grace at the end with their baskets of loot.

The kids with the Easter Bunny. Does this bench look familiar! The entire neighborhood used it for pictures!

Baby Jeffery enjoying the festivities.

It was really cute, the Easter Bunny drove up in a convertible with "Here Comes Peter Cottontail" blasting on the stereo!

What is not so cute is that the Easter Bunny disrobed in our house leaving behind the costume in our coat closet. I had forgotten it was in there, so when Wylie went to put his coat on Monday morning for school, both kids saw it! I told them that it was just the Easter Bunny's winter coat since it had been so cold lately. Now they think that our coat closet is some mystic portal for the Easter Bunny. I hope they don't think that is where the tooth Fairy and Santa come from.

Happy Easter!

The Binghams

Wittle Bunny Jeffery

Winter Olympics!

The Bingham family had a great Valentine's weekend. We got about three inches of snow, which was enough to build snowmen, have snowball fights and go sledding!

This is what we woke up to after it had snowed all day on Friday. It was absolutely beautiful outside. This is a shot of our street.

Here is our house. You'll have to excuse the tape on the window. We are in the process of painting the den.

The kids building their snowman, "Frosty".

Poor Frosty went through three head transplants because every time Mary Grace would go outside she would tackle him!

Wylie sledding down the neighbors driveway. Apparently he got pretty good and fast! Notice how far away Drew is standing for the picture. That is because Wylie would be close to him in about two seconds!

Valentine goodies on Sunday morning. Or as I refer to it, Sugar Fest 2010!

I hope you all had a great V-day!

Jeffery's Baptism

We finally got Jeffery Baptised this last weekend. It was a beautiful day, and the ceremony was so sweet. Jeffery did a good job. As long as his fist was able to be in his mouth, he is a happy camper. This is the one good picture that I got before the batteries exhausted.

Naughty Little Elf!

We have an Elf on the Shelf named Fleeble Flabble. For those of you who do not know what that is, he is an Elf that comes and stays with our family throughout the Christmas season. He is here to spy on our kids and report back to Santa nightly. He will take a new spot every day, and the kids love to wake up and look for him. He doesn't really cause any problems, he just pops about the house.

I think our elf has gotten fairly comfortable after being with us for several years now because he has started being mischevious. Here is what we all woke up to the other morning.

Hmmm...here he is atop the baker's rack in the kitchen, but wait, what is that next to him. An empty bag of oreos perhaps.

Mmm hmmm, and a partially eaten oreo in his hand!

And on his chubby little rosie cheeks.... crumbs from an overnight cookie craving.

Busted!

Wylie's 6th B-day

I cannot believe that my little man is 6!!!!! It seems like yesterday that my water broke at Drew's company Christmas party sending us to the hospital for an unexpected 36 week delivery. Time flies by so fast!

This is what Wylie woke up to on Saturday morning. You can't tell, but there are two little action figures on the top of his cake. I say that this is what "Wylie" woke up to because as you can tell it is still dark outside and Mommy and Daddy are not pleased to be up so early on a Saturday!

This year for Wylie's birthday we decided to take two of his little friends to the Atlanta aquarium. We had a great time. The Aquarium is really neat!

Wylie's favorite...the shark!
