more s'mores please

this is what kate has said frequently since we starting talking about summer camping. every time we mention it, she asks if we can set up our tent and have people come with us so we can do s'mores. since it's not quite warm enough to camp, we decided to have s'mores when our friends came over on friday night. i think both kate and abigail thoroughly enjoyed it!

happy birthday boppa!

dad-you're the greatest! we wish you a happy birthday and wish we were close enough to help you blow out your candles. know that we do love you and miss you on your special day! we could not ask for a better daddy or boppa-WE LOVE YOU!

fun at the park

tonight we walked over to the park for just a few minutes. i think i captured a few cute pictures of the girls.

Happy Birthday Tim!

today we celebrated tim's 35th birthday. it was a pretty low key day, but got to enjoy our favorite daddy & husband. tonight we had a quiet evening with tim's parents enjoying zachary's pizza and double chocolate cake (both of which were tim's request). kate loved helping mommy in the kitchen making the cake. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TIM!

easter

we had a fun day yesterday. we went to an incredible easter service at our church in the morning, then headed up to napa to spend the day with 60 friends and family. it was a BEAUTIFUL day and we spent the entire time outside. we ate (& ate), decorated easter eggs, hunted the eggs, and just had a relaxing time. the girls had a great time running around grammie and grandpa's yard with cousins and friends. it was a great day to celebrate the life and hope that jesus gave when he died and rose again on that third day.

so cal trip

today i returned from a fantastic trip down south to see family and friends. it was just the girls this time, but we had so much fun hanging out with my parents during my mom's spring break. we did a lot of stuff-kate got her first "real"pedicure, went to irvine park and did the easter egg hunt, train, and pony ride, went to newport beach, and just played in the backyard. i was able to celebrate my oldest friend juliana's 30th birthday, and see my girlfriend meg's new baby girl skyler. this trip was filled with many fun memories, but was also relaxing. i think it was the perfect getaway. oh, except for taking amelia on the airplane. can you say SCREAMING! oh well:)
