Easter!

The Hall family had a great Easter weekend! Saturday was a gorgeous, sunny day! We went to our church Easter carnival where Pax got to play games, and won lots of prizes (which he loved)! We went and ate at Willies after that (shocker) and then headed home for a much needed nap. When Mommy and Pax got up we started dying eggs which Pax thought was just the greatest thing cause he was able to make a mess and get dirty and nobody cared!! We then headed outside to do an Easter egg hunt since Sunday was supposed to be rainy and cold (and it was). Pax found all the eggs, then proceeded to dump the candy out in the yard. Sunday was a yucky day weather-wise so we went to church and then had a late Easter lunch and hung out inside all day. Pax loved all the attention from family though, so he didn't care that we were stuck inside. Josh and I are finding holidays are so much fun now that Pax is getting older and can do more things. We have a great time seeing him light up at the most ordinary things that we don't even look twice at. It truly is like seeing the world for the first time when you have a child, everything is new and wonderful to them and it teaches you to never take anything for granted. I am grateful my son is teaching me such life lessons and he doesn't even realize it!

new to blogging

I am completely new to this blogging thing and am not even sure if I am doing it right, but here goes nothing. I am a married mother of 1 son, Paxton. I have been married for almost 3 years and we welcomed Pax in November of 2007. He is a true blessing and the light of our lives. Each day brings us lots of smiles and laughter with him. He is at a really fun age right now and is learning to talk and do lots of other fun stuff. I absolutely love being with him, and am truly content with my life as a Mom. Gone are my days of going out all the time and partying, being a Mom is my number 1 priority. An exciting weekend for me now is going to church, the zoo and helping my husband make a good home cooked dinner. We do plan on having more children eventually, but right now are quite happy with our one. Life is pretty hectic for us right now, and I am not sure that throwing another baby into the mix would be the best idea. Right now we are focusing on selling our house in Manhattan, starting the new sports bar in El Dorado and settling into our lives in our new town.
