Happy Easter


Our after church egg hunt! It was so much fun!
The only problem we had was every time London
leaned over to pick up another egg, she accidently dumped
her whole basket out! Ooops!

Sydney is an old pro at egg gathering!

The girls had fun dying easter eggs at home.
This year we also got a set of Resurrection Eggs
to tell the story of Easter. It was really neat.
The girls could both tell the story on their own using
the eggs!

We were invited to the Bartholomews after church
for Easter supper. Darian and Jadon went egg
hunting with us afterward!


Sydney & London in their new Sunday best. Thanks Grandma Fran!

Here are some pics from our recent Spring Break trip to San Diego, CA. Here the kids are at the famous Zoo with their new friends (left to right) Kit, (Syd), Aubrey, Cassidy, (London), & Shelbie.

What a friendly lion, to let us crawl all over him!

"And here is how you properly remove the avacado from the tree..." Sydney instructs. Thanks to her friend Cassidy, she learned how to pick fresh oranges AND avacados! Mmmmmm......

Snow angel game! Posted by Picasa


We couldn't find Syd's waterproof boots, because of all our house construction (long story), so Walmart bags did the trick! Posted by Picasa

International Celebrations


This week at London's school, we celebrated and learned about Chinese New Year. So, London dressed up in costume, as a little China Doll. We received this outfit as a gift to Sydney years ago, from some friends of ours from China.

What's that on your shoulder, Syd?

By the way, our little "unbreakable" China doll has this lovely boo boo left over on her eyebrow from crashing into the coffee table last week.....it was almost an ER visit!

Oh! G'day! It's Australia Day! Sydney found this on the calendar, and she insisted we celebrate! (In honor of her namesake, Sydney Australia). We researched it on the net and made a flag cake, and had a little party! She even took information and activity sheets to school. It was a fun day!
