Easter 2013

As if traveling for boo-coo hours wasn't ENOUGH fun on Friday/Saturday of Easter weekend, we went ahead and jampacked a full, fun day in on Easter Sunday. I'm beyond thankful/blessed to have such a wonderful family. Nothing will ever replace the Hall Family get togethers...EVER. Here's the proof of WHY they always rank amongst the top!

Em found an egg!

This picture is our life as we know it...Em reaching for an Egg and Colton moving about in a total blur around her!

Found their baskets!

Come on Harry, cooperate! :) Love these three!

All decked out in their Easter Best!

Colton's got some work to do on his "baby holding" form...

Happy 1st Easter, Harry Matthew!

CHEESE!

Only SOME of the Hall great-grands at Easter!

Hunting more eggs!

Colton & Lauren...buds!

Happy Keaster! :) Em's pants were a "touch" too small!

Lots of help for Em from Aunt Marsha & Gramps!

Aunt Dee & Uncle Dan's Easter Baskets -- always well done!

Kids loved the hunt, but not the work of emptying/sorting the eggs!

Colton checking out his basket goodies!

Chalk party!

Define "antagonizing".... :)

Sack Races!

So much fun!

Colton & Isaiah -- go boys!

Aunt Kris, Jason and Matt got in on the action!

Em even gave it a shot!

Good times!

Sydney & Claire put together a 3-4 act circus for us. Colton & Isaiah were the super dogs!

Circus Act 2

They needed a volunteer. Dad was super limber!

Final act - Aunt Marsha & Johnny doing Claire's dance!

Easter, or Christmas Take 2?

Get Well Soon, Grandpa Kent

 Here's the best way to share Dad's video. Thank you all so much for submitting the clips. This really made him smile (and say some funny things the first time we watched soon after anesthesia). I think it will be treasured company this evening in the hospital. Thank you for your prayers, your thoughts, for answering the phone calls and lifting Dad up. We appreciate all your love and support.  58E2238E-D2E3-4B38-9FF6-AE1E502ABD14.mp4

Two + Two + One more = FIVE

Yup, you read that right, by the end of July, the Stockment's will officially be a family of five. Jason and I learned in mid-November that we were expecting our third child and we were both overjoyed with the news. (More so than I thought Jason would be -- he wasn't convinced on having another (or should I say, not as convinced as I was), but once he saw that baby's heartbeating on the monitor at the docs office, he couldn't keep it a secret anymore!!) I convinced Jason to keep our news to immediate family, however, failed to remember that we have a VERY chatty 4 year old, and a 2 year old who repeats everything her big bro says! :) So, we told our families on a Tuesday evening (after our doc appointment that afternoon) and by Thursday, I think half of White County knew. If you attend or drop children off to attend Pam's daycare or Bright Beginnings Preschool, you were amongst the first to know! I had hoped for some elaborate scheme to tell both of our parents ...

Life's Beachy

What a whirlwind month March has been! From the baby reveal to birthday parties (Madi turning 3, Sawyer turning 2 and soon Brad & Debbie!), to Jason working weekend after weekend at his side job, to moving Matt & Sarah into their new home, to Jason getting a new job, to kindergarten round up, to preparing for Florida....whew! Yup, you read that right -- after 14 years with Bouma Betten, Jason is making a jump. He applied for a job with Monsanto in Remington, and was lucky enough to be offered the job just last week. I am so beyond proud of him -- he's not a resume/interview kind of guy, but he put his best foot forward and proved what a hard worker he is. He'll start there as a Seed Tech in mid-April and although it will mean big changes for him (and US!), it will be worth it. The benefits cannot be topped...vacation time, paid time off for sick leave, 401K, health -- all things he didn't have (or did have, but not great) in his current job. It will certainly be a...
