Family Fun Day

Since we had a nice night, we decided to pack a picnic dinner and head to a place that a good friend of mine suggested. It was so much fun. The kiddo's loved to run and then they found the water and it was hard to get them to leave. I did not think that Edith would love the water because it would be cold but she wanted to go in and would have kept going if we did not stop her. Elliott got right in as well, a big step from last year. Thank you Tavern's for sharing your special place. We love it!

Meeker Day's

This year we were able to go to Meeker Day's since it was not raining. It just so happened that it was also on my Mommy's 60th Birthday so we packed up the kiddo's and headed downtown. We had a lot of fun and so did the kids. It was easier before kids but still fun.

This is how Edith did Meeker Days. What a life!

Elliott would have spent the whole night on the bouncy toys.



This boy loves his tractors. We had to take a picture at every tractor wheel.

Mother's Day

Ever since Elliott was born we have either gone to Northwest Trek or the Zoo for Mother's day. We discovered that the Zoo is much more kid friendly right now since the tram at Northwest trek is a little long for the little one yet. We started out the morning with Starbucks and then headed to the zoo. We were sure that it was going to rain on us but it ended up being a sunny day. We started last year going with my parents and it has become a fun tradition.

Every family has to have a picture in the Shark Mouth. It is hare to wrangle a 3 1/2 year old and a 1 year old.

This is one of my new favorite pictures. 3 generations!

Me and my little peanut!

Daddy's favorite pictures, he loves to take pictures through the trees.

Easter

So I know that I am way behind on posting but life just has seemed to get away from me these days. We had a fantastic Easter this year. We spent the morning at Church celebrating our Risen Lord and then we headed to my parents to celebrate with my brother and his family and close friends. Here are a few highlights from our day.

We woke up to this at our back door. Where did the Easter Bunny go?

This was the best we could do of teh 2 of them together.
