Pontotoc weekend

Baking w/ MA

Ranger ride with Daddy

Biking in the driveway

I've gotta go potty!

We're not sure why the shirt has to come off, but we'll roll with it.

Horseback rides!

Busy day for the Mitchell kids, highlighted by horseback rides at a friend's birthday party.

Fun with the Irish

Grocery shopping is exhausting!

Happy Valentine's Day!

 

Mardi Gras at school

Happy Birthday, Mary Beth!

We love you so!

We celebrated today with presents, some singing, and lots of cake and other treats. Ned was not quick enough to get a picture of the cake prior to it being demolished, but it lasted a good bit longer than the chocolate-covered donuts with rainbow sprinkles did. And a big 'Thank you!' to Mary Quinn DeRossette, who babysat on short notice this evening so that Ned could take Mary Beth out for her birthday dinner.

The Lion King

The boys love the Lion King. After many requests, we took down the case from Granny's house. They seem to love it, but are frustrated by the impenetrable case.

Look kids, Resonance!

Ned's coworker, Andy, held a gathering this evening at his house to celebrate his recent retirement. The kids were sports and agreed to tag along since Mary Beth was still on the road from her work trip to Nashville. The closest thing to kid-friendly that Andy could come up with was this cool bowl from Nepal that vibrates and makes a cool humming sound when the wooden baton is run around the rim. The kids were more impressed with the potato chips on the snack table, but we still had a nice time. Congrats to Andy!
