Bon Appetit!

Last Friday night, we went over to the McMillan's for a fun Julia Child's themed dinner party. Each of us was tasked with bringing a dish that complemented Julia's style of cooking. Clark and I brought her signature ceasar salad and I thought it turned out pretty well.

Larkin did an outstanding job with the decor. She had a tables arranged in a square and sat different patterns of china all around it. Every other chair was adorned with a white apron for the ladies and a chef hat for the guys. It was a great night spent with friends.

Easter was wonderful. The A/C at our Church went out the night before because of the horrible wind we had. Luckily the head of facilities for TCU is a member and they were able to pull some strings and relocate us into the ballroom. That also meant no child care. All was good though, harper loved the singing and talking during prayer. I took her out to the lobby about halfway through the sermon to run around and play. After church we went to Lambert's for brunch! It was a great day!

Not the best but after 10 takes with the self timer, we gave up

Early Easter Fun!

Today we took Harper to the TCU Easter egg hunt. We have had wonderful weather this entire weekend and it was so nice to get outside and do something as a family. I was pretty sure that Harper would have no idea what was going on but much to my surprise, as soon as they sounded the air horn, she thought about it for a second and then was off, putting eggs in her basket one by one. Then once she was happy with her selection of eggs, she sat down and began to play with her colorful findings. And her dad ate all her candy.

Costumes make me happy!

Yay! For those that know me well, you know I love a good theme party and you know I have a costume box for such occasions. Thank goodness that Ben was turning 30 and that his lovely wife Abbi decided on an 80's bash.

The guys. Who is that guy in the leotard??

I also wanted to give credit to Sabrina Gebhardt Photography for the amazing family pictures she took last weekend. I will post more of those this weekend but she took the new blog photo at the top of the page.
