Gulfport/ NOLA

This past week, we took a family trip to Gulfport, MS and New Orleans, LA. We spent a couple days at the beach in Gulfport. It is a 24 mile man-made beach. It was SO nice and really shallow at low tide, so the kids had a blast playing in the water. Then we headed to NOLA to meet up with my (Bria's) dads side of the family for a little (lot) of GREAT food and GREAT music. We ended our trip at the Jazz Fest on Sunday. It was a lot of fun to get away for awhile!!

This pic shows how far out it was shallow...perfect for kids!

A little walk

We took a walk home from the park this afternoon and Jaxon and Kylie walked hand in hand the whole way. It was so cute!

Kylie

This is AnnMarie performing one of her songs at the Show Choir Spectacular 2010. We are still trying to figure out the video part of our new camera so we apologize for the beginning...It's a tad blurry. She did an unbelievable job and we're very proud of her!

James' Visit part 2/ Easter

We decided to have our Easter a little early so that Tim, Jacqueline, and Olivia could celebrate with us. The morning started out with hidden Easter baskets and then an egg hunt in the yard in the evening. The kids had a good time...





















Easter on the Welch side. The first pic is one year ago. None of the kids wanted to keep the ears on...This year, all of them wore the ears, including baby Donnie! They also enjoyed a little egg hunt.
