Busy as bees!

The last few weekends have been so busy for the Hicklins! Last weekend we went to the Carolina spring game and then to a Blue Dogs Concert afterwards. Evan loved the football game! He loved clapping when everyone clapped and liked Cocky from a distance but that was close enough for him. We went to see the Blue Dogs in Blythewood after the game and he had a blast dancing! I'm telling you this child has some soul! He loves music and dancing! :) Thanks goodness he got his Mommy's rhythm! haha!!!

The Come See Me festival is going on right now in Rock Hill and we have enjoyed that this past weekend. On Friday night we went to the Beach Blast and enjoyed hanging with friends and beach music. Once again there was dancing and music! Saturday we went to a birthday party and he was unsure of the bounce house they had there. I think he may like it when he gets a little older! On Sunday we enjoyed a beautiful afternoon at Glencairn Gardens for the Ice Cream Social. It was a great day to be outside. Michelle, Jennifer and I took the kids and we had a blast. The highlight of the day was throwing pennies in the fountain. Here are some pics from the past 2 weeks.

Easter 2010

Easter weekend was a lot of fun at our house. On Saturday, we dyed eggs. It was the 1st time for Evan and the 1st time in a long time for me. Needless to say Evan watched because I was sure he would make a huge mess. He enjoyed playing with and cracking them once they got dry though. Saturday evening we enjoyed a cookout at some friends and Evan and Jimmy were able to fly a kite for the 1st time. Evan loved it, he just clapped as Jimmy ran around and got it going. It was a fish kite and he kept saying fish, one of his favorite words due to the fact that he loves goldfish crackers.

Easter Sunday we went to church to celebrate the true meaning of Easter. Evan loves going and playing in the nursery. He just has a ball playing with the other kids. After church, all the family joined us at our house for a wonderful lunch. I don't think anyone left hungry, thats for sure. We attempted to hunt some Easter eggs but Evan got a little cranky since he had not had a nap yet. We played outside a little and then he settled down for a 2 and 1/2 hour nap. The easter bunny did come visit Evan and he got a new chair all for himself. He absolutely loves it and looks like a little man in it. He loves climbing up in it, holding his Curious George and watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse! Here are some pics from the weekend! Enjoy!
