Disney on Ice's 100 Years - Part I

The one thing that we had to look forward too on our Spring Break was Disney on Ice! After being sick nearly all week long, we were very thankful for the trip. G-Ma always takes her grands and DILs to the shows when they come around and this show was no exception.
The girls and I have been to just about all of Disney's ice shows and I have to say that this one was probably the best. The only thing that would have made it better would have been Cars' participation. We had a great time and I have lots of pics to prove it! So beware....Disney will be featured ALOT in the next posts!

Trying to get Whit to look at the camera was war! There was just too much going on!

My girls, however, love to strike a pose for the camera!


There were LOTS of Genies!! They were fantastic!





All of Nemo's characters looked GREAT!




One of my favorite Disney Princess, Belle, and the Beast looked FANTASTIC! They brought out all the Princess' and their Princes'. My girls loved that part!







Toy Story's soldiers had great technique.




Woody was a HUGE hit with the kids! Whit even got a Woody doll....he loves to take the hat off and on.

All of the Toy Story characters were a huge hit!



And of course some of Disney's most beloved characters were there too!

There are lots and lots more photos of Disney on Ice's 100 Years to come so stayed tuned...




































































































































Disney on Ice - Intermission




During intermission we got some awesome pics! I love letting the kids play around and take pictures. They love to take them and it gives them some independence. Besides, we had nothing better else to do. We couldn't possibly go get all the kids a popcorn or cotton candy....they were $12 bucks each. With 5 kids...that adds up FAST!

Spring Break 2010

Fun in the sUN!!

So Spring Break didn't exactly turn out how we had expected....but thats ok!
We were hoping to get to North Carolina with Granny but instead we ALL ended up at home with the stomach virus! Yes, for the whole week! It was like we kept passing it onto the next person.
The later part of the week, the girls were feeling MUCH better but Granny, Whit and I were still suffering. So we got the girls a slip-n-slide, some water guns, and water-balloons to play with.

Vbug getting her slidin' on!

CJ looked like she was tryin' to slide into third base!!


Granny and the Whitman watching our "entertainment" while chillin' on the porch



Yes, she is a mess!

The Easter Bunny Comes to the Tyre's House

After church we always come home to see what the Easter bunny had left them.


Because we get up so early and go to the Sunrise service, this allows the kids to really enjoy what the bunny leaves them.

I just love these baskets/buckets...they were my favorite

The kids really enjoyed their baskets and all the goodies they got!



Easter was filled with fun and family all day long! God is so good to have given us so much...and He continues too!

Easter-Then and Now


Easter 2009

Easter 2010

Last year we just happened to get this shot of the kids, and it turned out so good! So my Momma had this great idea to take this picture of the kids every Easter. It should be interesting to see Whitman's face over the years.

He is really laid back and didn't care too much this year. But I have a feeling that all might change. I couldn't get over the girls and how grown up they look. I absolutely HATED not having them in smocked dresses this year! But they are getting bigger and wanted BIG girl dresses! I couldn't even get a bow in their hair. So I went and bought headbands that are real dainty and sweet.....VK's even had a bow on it!! Haha!! Oh how I miss those days of sweet smocked dresses with big 'ol bows. They are growing up WAY to fast!

I hope you enjoyed these photos as much as I have. I look forward to the many more Easter pics of my kids and their beautiful Easter outfits.

Easter Sunday

Easter Sunday the children came forward and said a special prayer for a local family.
The power of prayer is amazing and especially powerful when it comes from our innocent!

Our wild and rambuncious Antioch crew waiting for the go ahead ....watch out eggs!!!

Whit getting him some eggs...isn't he just adorable!

I love this picture and I'll show you why next post!

Just beautiful

The Family

I always love to just let them "have-at-it"!

I am in-love with those freckles

Papa and Granny with their babies

Da and Grandma with their babies




God is so gracious to have given us His son, knowing that He would ultimately pay the price for us all! What an amazing gift. Jesus was so strong and faithful to His Father.....bless His heart He even asked more than once if there was another way.
Easter was a great day filled with appreciation, love, and excitement.....because of HIM!
We had a beautiful day at church filled with fellowship, worship, and fun! The kids had a great time, as usual, hunting eggs. This was Whitman's first year off by himself and he thoroughly enjoyed himself.
I was especially grateful to have my inlaws and my parents with us on this special day.
I am SO BLESSED!
