Happy Easter!!

We celebrated Easter twice this year. Once in Florida, because we drove home on Easter Sunday. The boys had a great easter egg hunt at the park right next to where my parents live. And then again at my parents house. We have candy coming out of our ears. Then after we were home Jeff's parents did an egg hunt for all the cousins. And the final clue led them to their baskets. Michael and Cameron especially love playing together. They are two peas in a pod-VERY ALIKE!!!

Look at all my eggs.

Can you tell his mouth is FULL of chocolate?!

March Madness

March was a very busy month for the Guild household. But lots of fun. Jeff and I were in Cancun to start off the month. Then I joined the boys for two weeks in Florida with my parents. It's amazing how fast two weeks fly by, especially when you are having fun. The boys loved fishing, swimming in the pool, going on bike rides, playing at the park and going to the beach-to name a few. We all missed Daddy, who joined us at the end our trip only for the weekend. Then we made the long drive home. Thanks Nana and Papa for the fun time and memories in Florida.

Ohhhhh, Mexico!!

So if you hadn't already heard...Jeff and I recently (March 3-8) spent the week in Cancun, Mexico. Without the kids!!!! As hard as it was to leave the boys, we knew they were in good hands-with my parents in Florida. And they did great. And we had a blast!! I couldn't remember the last time I had gone a whole day without being responsible for providing meals, diaper changes, trips to the potty, etc. We pretty much relaxed the whole trip. We spent our days by the pool/beach. And went into town every night for shopping and dinner. A much needed trip...I highly recommend it.

Ryan's B-day celebration.

Cousin Ryan turned 8 years old.

Hi everyone,
It's been a busy few weeks. But filled with lots of fun things. We had a nice spell of warmer weather a week ago, and got a taste of spring. I think it was just teasing us. Because today, however, is cold again. We actually saw snow flurries. Very unusual for TN. There were several counties that closed school today because of "snow advisories". Very different from up north.

Jeff's parents drove down from Michigan two weekends ago, and brought the boys some more snow. They just loved playing with it. And surprisingly it lasted all day (in a cooler). They had fun eating it, making snowballs, and throwing them at whomever came close enough.

Our nephew, Ryan, turned 8 a week ago. They had us all over for Sunday brunch last week and we celebrated his birthday there. The highlight was him opening his "Green machine" from grandma and grandpa. I still can't believe he is that big. He is such a bright and caring boy.

I've been busy this week packing. Friday we leave for Florida. And from there, Jeff and I are going to spend the week in Cancun. Just the two of us!! That's right...NO KIDS!!! We are very excited. As hard as it is to leave the boys, we know they are in good hands. We are leaving them with my parents, who are spending the winter in Florida. Then I'll spend two weeks in Florida with the boys-when Jeff and I return. I know, it's a hard life :-) I really do feel lucky to not only have a place to stay down there, but have a husband who is willing to part with me for that long.
So my next post will probably be from sunny Florida.

Happy Valentines Day!

"So Cute"

We have a blog now!

Ok, ok...So we don't want to be the only losers who don't have a blog. It seems to be the thing to do these days. So we've given in to the peer pressure. I have no idea what I'm doing, but convinced I'll learn as I go. And I can't promise how good I'll be about posts...but work with me.
