Randomness

I found some cute pictures that I hadn't put on the blog. They have nothing to do with one another, except that they both make me smile!
The top picture was taken last week. My hubby put some new sand in the sandbox to replenish the supply from last year, and then he buried DD1 in the sand. She loved it, except the sand in her pants!
The bottom picture is from the beginning of March. As soon as the snow was melted the girls were begging Daddy to put up the trampoline. It takes a little while to put up the trampoline and the safety net, so DD1 got comfy in the hammock swing to wait. As you can see it was still pretty cold out side and she got cozy and fell asleep waiting.

Windy Day

Since this spring has been chilly and windy, we thought that we would take advantage of the wind and go fly our kites! We went to the park near our house and it was the perfect day for kite flying. All we had to do was throw them up in the air and the wind did all the work! DD1 has a much longer attention span so she and daddy flew the kites for awhile. DD2 and I flew her kite for a few minutes and then headed over to the playground. It was a fun family day at the park!

Easter 2010

Since General Conference was on Easter Sunday, we decided to wear the new Easter dresses the week before Easter. It was a good idea since the next Sunday was cold and windy! After church we went to my parents house and took pictures with my sister's kids too. They looked so cute but it was nearly impossible to get all 4 of them to look at the camera at the same time!
On Friday night the kids went to color Easter eggs at my parents house. They all had a blast...and my mom's kitchen was the proof! On Saturday morning the Easter bunny came. The girls were so surprised that they each got a pillow pet! They LOVE them. That afternoon we went back to my parents house to have a little egg hunt. We had to do it in the basement since it was so cold outside. The eggs were filled with money and a few treats. It was a beautiful weekend (not the weather so much) but the kids enjoyed the fun, and we enjoyed conference!
