EASTER '11

Lovely Easter Morning

a new discovery...PEEPS!

let's just say...OBSESSION!

This kid is crazy about Michael Jackson!

You just might be able to tell by that cute little grin!

NO WAY...an american girl doll comb!

Can you believe it???!!

My sweet kids!!!

Oh he makes me SMILE!!!!

I know I know...it's the best we could do!!

The annual cousin easter egg hunt--except this year it was inside grandma's house cause the weather was not cooperating! It was just pouring outside. It worked great and they all got plenty of Easter eggs!!

Happy Easter!

Trip to AZ

Back in March, Mike and I along with Garrett and Stacey, took a quick trip out to AZ to visit their cousin Doug and his family! I don't think we've ever wake-boarded in March? I guess when you have the black body suit, you can do anything!! We had a great time just being with Doug and Sara, they are such a great couple and have an amazing family!! Stacey, Sara and I actually made it to Scottsdale and found some great shopping! Thanks Sara for being such a wonderful host!! We love you!!!

This suit was amazing--no need for a lifejacket!

It just blows up like a balloon in the water and you float!

Spring is in the air!

Brigg has mastered walking. He is just so proud of himself which he should be. It seems pretty tricky to be little and walk around with a huge basketball. He's officially a walker! We were loving the weather this April day outside in our backyard. One of the not so many nice days in the spring. We had a pretty freezing spring this year! So we enjoyed it while we could. Charly was out building something beautiful in the sandbox, Wesley was freshening his basketball skills, and Drake was tackling his Dad getting ready to play some football! And Brigg just keeps getting cuter and cuter! He kept walking around with his tongue hangin out which is I guess what I did all the time when I was a baby. Can't wait for summer to be outside all the time! We LOVE CO nights, they are just about perfect!!

Bibbidi Boppidi Boutique--CO style!

Thanks to our good friends, The Gentry's, we were able to recreate the unforgettable experience of the Bibbidi Boppidi Boutique! Susan went all out. Charly and Elizabeth were in Heaven all over again! They both went on a little date with their parents to Disney Princess on Ice, and just to get ready for the big night, they were pampered like princesses! Susan fixed their hair just like they did in Cinderella's castle, did their make-up even with pixy dust, and wore their new Ariel dresses! And to top it all off Todd(Elizabeth's Dad) gave them each 1 rose for the special date!

This little sign was posted on her bedroom door to welcome the girls!

Susan spoiled them so much, she even had some juice and cookies

while they were getting all dolled up! So cute!

Busted!

It's been a while since we've had a toddler around our house, so our child locks don't really exist--yet. Hopefully soon we can get these things back on to prevent this.... from happening often. If it's not oatmeal, its potatoes or cheerios. This kid is always in to something, such a busy boy! But I just love this kid even if he drives me crazy!

how can you get mad at that face?!

Brigg's first steps

Brigg took his first steps about a month after he turned one. It didn't take him long to take off, once he figured it out it was all over, just like my life is right now--over--haha. Welcome to the "chasing stage!" Besides the fact that he is busier than ever now, I love this stage and seeing his face light up of excitement that he just did it even if his arms are helping him balance as he wobbles from place to place. So exciting!

So proud!
