Sara's 38th Birthday

Julie always knows how to make Sara feel so special on her birthday and this birthday was no exception! Julie invited our family and Sara's parents over for Korean BBQ - yum!!  When we arrived we could definitely tell we were in for a party!

 Streamers and party decor galore!

 Complete with a birthday crown!

We ate outside on the outdoor dinnerware that we gave Julie for her birthday!

 

Everything was so yummy and somehow we had a little room for cake so the singing commenced and we all blew out the candles!

 Family pic!

 And another family pic because you know, sometimes friends are the family you choose for yourself!  Thanks Bobby and Julie for my new updated suitcase and for the amazing dinner!! XO

Easter Fun!

Ashley looked so cute for her Easter egg hunt at school.  A hand-me-down dress for Lauren/Brooke/Leah!  It's always fun for Mommy when she wears their dresses because she can remember the girls wearing them :) 

 Ready to find eggs!

 After the hunt they went back to the room for a party, with treats of course!

 Then came actual Easter!!  After Easter mass with the Hillins we met Sara's parents and Uncle Don for brunch at our new spot Eddie Merlot's.

We heard the Easter bunny had been to our house so we high-tailed it home!

 Kids were excited!

 They searched high and low to find eggs and their Easter baskets!

 The Easter Bunny was tricky but they found them all!

 Pretty girls!

 Love our family!

It was wiggling and wiggling!

 And out it came!!!  

You are looking so much older buddy!!!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

After school the kids and Mommy headed down to Nana Jeanne and Papa Steve's to celebrate St. Patrick's Day.  Daddy was traveling or he would have joined!  Everyone had some green on - whew!

We ate at Verrado country club!  Yum! And watched the sunset!

 Before having ice cream and driving back home!  Thanks for the fun outing!!

Ashley's ASU Dance Performance

Ashley was all excited about her dance performance during the ASU boys basketball half-time!  

Trevor really got into the game!

And before we knew it, it was half time!

 The music started before everyone was ready but that didn't stop Ashley from knowing what to do!

 And then she saw Daddy for a quick wave!

 After the show we went and sat by the Wirick's so Trevor and Claire could catch up!

 Same with Ashley and Lucy!

 So proud of our tiny dancer!

Fireside Easter Egg Hunt

Our community's annual Easter egg is amazing.  There are so many eggs and it is usually well-organized by ages.  The kids were excited!

 And then it was time!!  Go kids!

 Ashley took her time finding the pink and purple ones!

 Cheese!

 Bunnies that are buddies!

Awwww!

 Trevor was on the hunt for the golden egg!

 When her basket was about half full she plopped down and called it good.  She wanted to see what was inside the eggs! 

 Trevor filled his basket before cracking them open!

 The haul!

 There were rides too and Trevor rode one with his buddy Noah from his class!

Before leaving we took quick pic with the Easter bunny.  Too bad it was into the sun :(

Ashley's Spring Pic

Not sure the school photographer can beat the picture Mommy took of Ashley before school picture day!  Today she requested that her hair be curled!  Girl after Mommy's heart!!
