School Easter Egg Hunt

Lyndon had his 3rd Grade Easter Egg Hunt today at the park.  Before his hunt his teachers treated his class to the movie HOP and an EGG TOSS!  Lyndon had a blast today!

On YOUR MARK.....

GET SET......

GOOOOOOOOOO!

& in a few minutes it was OVER!  Wow, they can gather a lot of eggs in a small amount of time!

 **Lyndon wasn't excited about his egg hunt yesterday and woke up with a tummy ache this morning.  I finally figured out the reason for his fret.... Lyndon gave up candy for lent this year and was worried about his temptation to eat candy as his classmates would be munching away.  He was worried he would sin.

After explaining that there would be cookies and other treats he could have and the kids would be playing, not sitting around eating candy, he felt much better.  I know Jesus would be proud of his sacrifice, as I am!

Purple Soda

Cody and I rode down in the breaks, by our house to assess the tanks and see how much water they had or hadn't caught in our tiny, BUT still appreciative showers.  Immediately I noticed the sweet smell in the air.  The culprit was these little tiny purple flowers that filled the air with the smell of grape soda.  I had to take Lyndon to smell it a few days later.

I love all of the different plants that naturally grow on their own.  Especially these two....

Beautiful Bluebonnets

Sadly I have never taken Lyndon's picture with bluebonnets....I'm really not sure why.....probably fearful of snakes, I guess.  After seeing a friend's pictures of her girls in bluebonnets with a rolling highway I was eager to take Lyndon on his 1st bluebonnet shooting.  I knew it must be the cemetery road with the hills.  I had my snake protector come with us!  Luckily we saw thousands of bluebonnets, one beautiful road, and ZERO snakes!

If you look closely you can see a small black speck on the left of the road-----our dear friend.....running her hills on a Sunday afternoon.  I knew it must be her with her car parked on the top of the hill.  It was fun to have her in the pic.

Lyndon took the last 3 pictures.

Basketball Wrap-Up

Lyndon played his last basketball game for the year yesterday.

Watching for the rebound.

Lyndon played Grant's team.  They did a great job and Grant is quite the ball handler!

Lyndon did a great job on defense.  His defense ability has definitely improved a lot!

Grant sinking both of his free throw shots!  Yeah, Grant!

Lyndon's team minus one.

Lyndon's wonderful coaches mother-in-law treated the team to DQ after the game.

The boys had fun eating a visiting!

The whole team together!

Lyndon improved a lot over the course of the season and even made a few steals and baskets!  Lyndon was very fortunate to have an AWESOME coach and some great role models on the team as well.
