Alleluia!

Happy Easter!

One photo of the children in their Easter Best. We may have been the only family bringing home-grown flowers for the cross; we were certainly the only ones with cilantro blooms.

Our friends joked that they were surprised they didn't find vitamins in any of the eggs. Well, you know I like to keep things natural, so they were filled with dates, pecans and homemade play-doh. It's the thrill of the hunt that matters though, right?

Amity got some encouragement from Uncle Dave.

We watched the sunrise over downtown Austin and then broke our fast with Hot Cross Buns at Sweetish Hill.

Rest in peace, Maddie (1996-2012)

As Amity always says, "That Maddie...she's a sweet girl."

Hangin' with Uncle Nate

Uncle Nate blew through town a week ago. Og and Am regailed him with stories of their respective childhoods over some baked oatmeal and cherry-chocolate soda bread!

Am turns 2!

Am turned 2 on 2/22! Kinda like the 9-9-9 plan, but much better! The rain tried to do its thing on our parade, but we just moved things inside and had a much more intimate affair. Am is a natural, and very flexible, hostess!

Og's first haircut

After 4 long years with nary a haircut, our little friend finally bit the bullet and traipsed down to Supercuts.

After...can you find him?

ABQ Reunion

Back in January, Og got to see his long-lost BFF, Zeke, in ABQ. Am got to meet her new-found BFF, Zippy, as well.

Ogmas 2011!
