It's the little things that mean the most.....

When I pray for these children my prayer is for them to have kind, loving hearts....this is our life...our journey...our Hardy Hearts....

wrapping up Spring break...

With one last full day at the beach we headed to the dock for pictures.....it's become a tradition now....









and then we beached it all day long.....and the weather was warm and perfect!



Lila and I found some shells and had the best time...sifting and sorting them....just time together


It was the best...most perfect...last beach day....
We needed this after the few cold days we had.....



and it worked out well for Jenna because we were not on the road to watch Louisville play...she is a true fan...so I got behind her...because that's what you do for your best friend.....I never really got the "L" down but I did try for the record....My True blue Kentucky blood just didn't mesh with the "L"
We watched....they won (barely)! 
 
and we spent the night packing up to go home!...... :(  but the memories we made were as solid and tender and real as they come.

It was a great spring break for sure and one I will forever carry in my heart!

forts, fun and talent shows!

The morning began with a trip to Fort Morgan! The littles loved exploring this place with so much history!
 It was "Ware Red" day for Kevin Ware so we did that. I am not a Card fan but I sure felt sorry for that kid....so sad for him.
and then some beach time......

 After dinner at Tacky Jacks...where laughter was plentiful......

 It was time for the 2nd annual Talent show at the beach! The kids were so excited! After an amazing rap performance by me singing "Ice, Ice baby"......sorry you missed it......the evening was filled with dance performances......
 arm wrestling........
 basketball dribbling.......


 joke telling......
 belly dancing.......
 and movie monologues....Colin and Riggs really rocked their skit from Hot Rod!
Everyone enjoyed their cash prize but most of all the fun time they had!

Rainy beach day

The next day of Spring break brought rain and cold, but we smiled right through it!
We shopped.......
and went to the movies!
 and had the best lunch at LuLu's! We had hula hood contests, played volley ball and danced!




 The kids took the cutest pics in the photo booth there too!

 We boys ended the night with a big basket ball game with their new friends from Kokomo, Indiana!
