"Egg"cellent Easter!!

He is risen!  We had a fabulous Easter!  Liam and Lilah were really into hunting eggs this year and Caroline had SO much fun showing them how to do it! The kids had an Easter egg hunt at school on Thursday and then an Easter egg hunt at Mom and Dad's church on Saturday morning!  Robert was working like crazy during this time because of the tornadoes in Arlington, so we missed him at the Easter egg hunt, but loved having him with us on Easter morning!

The Easter egg hunt at church! (Liam did NOT want to sit for pictures with the girls!)






We got up Easter morning and went to church with Mom and Dad and Mer, Randy, and Nolan!  We spent the rainy day at Mom and Dad's and had a great time hanging out and hunting Easter eggs in the house!  We must have been having a really great time because I only have one picture from Easter morning before church!



The kids (and Mommy and Daddy) have been having SO much fun in the bounce house that Ms. Jenny gave us! 




This Easter post is SO late because we have ALL been sick with a yucky fever/cough/flu yuckiness that is lasting FOREVER!!!  I am really hoping that this is the last week of sickness and we can start enjoying the great weather soon!!!

Spring Has Sprung!

It seems like Spring is SO busy, but SO fun around the Cochran casa!  We have been busy enjoying every minute of it!

Everyone (even Daddy!) was dressed so cute in their red spring clothes one day so I tried (tried being the operative word!!) to get a group picture!  This is how just about every group picture in our house goes!

On Spring Break we set out on the great Tour of Texas!!  We spent the first part of Spring Break in San Antonio!  We had a great time hanging out with Grandma Evie, Grandpa Don, Aunt Sara, Uncle Jack, and Jacob!  We took all the kids on their first trip to the zoo!  They all LOVED it!  I am sure they felt very at home because our house is usually very similar to a zoo!  Ha!





Caroline got to go have a sleep over at Cayah and Ike's house!  She asked to stay for "20 days", but for Mom and Dad's sake I went and picked her up after one night!  She also managed to convince her Cayah that her tennis shoes were too small and she needed new ones, so all three kiddos scored new shoes!  They were very excited to show them off!! Thank you Cayah and Ike!!

Now that we seem to have gotten sweet Caroline feeling better (Knock on wood and PRAY PRAY PRAY that she continues to stay so healthy!), we signed her up for gymnastics!  She LOVED her first class on Saturday!  She did tell them that a few of the things they asked her to do were "too dangerous"!  She has a long way to go before the Olympics (HA!), but she's having a blast, so that's what's important!
