Annie is the big 7

May 22nd What a sweetheart! I can't believe my baby is already seven years old. Where has the time gone? She is so mature for her age and of course super tall. She loves to draw and ride her bike and play with friends. She loves sleeping with me when Scott works graveyards. She is super sensitive and loves to make me laugh with her goofy faces. It makes me sad to know how big she is. She loves to do her own hair and read books. She is a great helper with her sisters and very motherly. She loves school and learning. I hope she keeps it up.
Here is a cute collection of pics of Annie.







We love you Annie!

The Garden


I just planted our garden for the year! I am so excited, I love fresh veggies. I still have more to add, but I'm halfway there.
The best thing about it is little Mags. She spends so much time with me watering and cleaning out my watering ditches with her hands. She is a great helper!

Ellie tries to help, but just follows Mags around and wants me to pick her up.

Yard Work

The basement is done, so outside we go.
Scott decided he wanted to dig up the park strip in our yard to put in rock. Our awesome neighbor let us borrow his tractor and we dug it out in one day.

Scott took the girls for a ride in the tractor, they thought it was great.
Mags never smiles. What a stinker.

Elizabeth wouldn't get out of the wheel barrow. She sat in it for an hour.

Last month we put sprinklers in the front yard. It was so much work, but it will be so worth it. I have had so much fun playing with my flower beds this year. I haven't finished planting yet.

Easter with the Crezee Family

I love Easter with my family! This year everyone showed up, but poor Tony. I guess they claim he is sick. Sure. We also celebrated Papa's birthday! Jill made the most amazing sushi. We had a color coded easter egg hunt for the kids. I guess now you know why I am so anal, yes I inherited it from my mother. We also had fun coloring easter eggs and hanging out together.
I don't know what Scott's laughing at, but I didn't think it was funny.
Ellie was so excited to find all of her eggs. She had a blast. She didn't quite understand what to do with them, but after I opened them she started eating the candy.

Margaret had fun too. She kept telling everyone where their eggs where and poor Annie was getting very frustrated with her.

Pirate Jack

My dad and I had a great time hiding all of the eggs. We made sure that Michael and Chanels eggs were really hard to find, but then we had to help them.

Easter with the Pitcher Family

Every year Uncle Mark and Aunt Polly have an awesome Easter Egg hunt and lunch for us. It is so delicious. Polly is a great cook. Uncle Mark loves Easter and throws a great party. He has a egg hunt for the little kids and one for the big kids. I always tell him I am too old to play, but he yelled at me this year and told me not to ruin his easter, so I played. This year for the big kids he made us get in pairs and tie our ankles together. Scott tied us way too tight and my ankle still hurts today. We went out and got as many eggs as we could and then played a game with a few of them. It was fun. He hid $140 in the eggs. We ended up with $22. Not too bad. Scott and I on the hunt. We did get the most eggs! We rock!JThey wouldn't let Katie play because she is due in one week, but you can see Polly and Kendra, Steve and Blake, Melissa and Eric, and Jenny and Kelsie.

Great Grandma and Grandpa

Maggie loving her peep, though you can't tell by the pic.


Ellie took a little while to figure out what to do with her candy, but after a few minutes she started to load up.
