The boys' spring photos....Thomas at 5 1/2 and Tucker at age 2. :)

Sweet Tuckie turned 2 today. Of course he's been celebrating for days. :) Just a quick story that captures Tucker's personality. We had the oil changed in our car today and while in the waiting room, Tuck grabbed my purse and produced $0.50 and a piece of gum. He played with the money after he ate the gum and then spied a shelf of chips. He asked for the chips (it was his birthday so I gave in), and I told him they cost money and showed him how to pay the cashier. He devoured the chips and about 15 minutes later he got up, rummaged through my pocketbook and pulled out a nickel and penny. He marched to the counter, gave the man the money and picked up another bag of chips. I took his picture while he was still smiling his "I know I'm cute" smile---in other words BEFORE I made him get my money back and replace the chips. haha!

The boys have been loving this early spring weather. We took them camping on the farm. It was Tucker's first trip and he had a blast. He got very tickled in the tent, but after about 6 times of HUSH TUT from his family, he went on to sleep and slept all night! Thomas is on spring break this week and sadly announced his teacher had gone to the beach. Let's hope the poor lady has the nerve to return. ha! He's missing his friends but is enjoying playing at home. My uncle brought the boys his old metal cow trough so they've been swimming in their "redneck pool" as Thomas calls it. Care to guess how long it took me to clean the new pool? It was covered in red mud raccoon tracks! Just added to the charm. I'll have to get some pictures for my next post.

Have a wonderful and happy Easter weekend!
