Cheeeeese!

While Mema was here she taught Loganne to say "Cheese!" whenever she saw a camera so here are a few adorable shots of her saying cheese.  I just want to eat those cheeks!

Family Fun

Loganne's first taste of cotton candy!

This past week has been filled with fun events including a parade and a visit to the local carnival.

Mema's Visit and Easter

Mema and the girls at the San Antonio Zoo

At the Alamo

Let me begin this update by proclaiming that God is so good!  He continues to bring peace and strength to our household during this time of challenge.  Happy belated Easter and I pray that you would celebrate His resurrection not only on Easter but daily!  Our Easter was very blessed and we were especially excited about Mema's presence with us for the holiday.  We had a wonderful week with Mema including an overnight stay in San Antonio, an aquarium visit, Easter activities and awesome church services.

Seriously....

Just a very quick update without pictures b/c at this moment the only pics that would describe this week would be too disgusting to share.  Our week once again has been filled with throw up and diarrhea.  When you spend so much time around other kids I guess you have to expect some sickness.  Well since I'm not prepared to become a hermit crab I guess I will deal with the sickness.  I must say though all things considered my girls really rock!  Most of the time their smiles and good attitudes would never indicate that they are so sick.  Kaleigh keeps saying "I'm ok because I am brave like my daddy."

Stay At Home Mom

I think it is a privilege and a blessing that I get to stay home with my kids!  However this mom is not exactly a stay at home mom.  We once again have spent the last week enjoying all that South Texas has to offer.  Including a few trips to the museum and aquarium, playdates, dance class and all the beautiful parks!  This week Kaleigh even got to touch some snakes, turtles and a baby alligator.  So fun and I get to be there for it all!  All the smiles, laughs and even the cries but I wouldn't trade it for the world.  God is good!

The girls at the local Splash Pad

Well The McKennas just returned home from an awesome trip to Disney World! We enjoyed some time with our dear friends the Hagers, then saw the Noce/Izaguirre family and then all the McKennas came into town to enjoy some days at the Disney parks. The girls absolutely loved Disney especially the Princess Breakfast at Epcot and the Electric parade at the Magic Kingdom. It was just a joy to watch my kids light up with pure amazement, eyes wide, mouths opened and loving every minute of it. Well maybe not every minute we of course had a few meltdowns due to the demands of a Disney trip on little ones but overall they really rocked. We survived our days at the parks thanks to an awesome family effort. Everyone chipped in to make it an extremely special time for both girls. As we entered the Magic Kingdom Kaleigh's only words were, "I can't believe my eyes!" It was so fun. Unfortuantely my camera battery died just before our time in the parks so here are pics from the beginning of the week. I'll share more when I get them from Grandmere and Aunt Katie. Thanks again Grandmere and Grandpa for a great vacation!
