Kite day!  We went to the park and flew kites, did crafts, and ate hotdogs. 

At home volcano just because it was nice outside.

Easter 2012

Family Pic Our favorite egg creation

Group shot standing in behind our fav egg creation.

OK, not a great pic, but the kids had fun searching for eggs stuffed with money and M&M's. I wonder how long those will last in the house????

Easter Part 2

Easter weekend at Bearizona... I had to add this photo...Klara is holding Bugsy!!

Kaleb's gerbil is 2 weeks old that he is holding.

Some of the baby bears. It was feeding time and they sure acted silly. This was certainly "take no prisioners" kind-of eating.

Spring Snow

The kids had some fun painting...they did birdhouses and butterflies. Before the storm I had tons of bulbs popping up and the lilac bush was forming buds.

Then we got this....

We ended up with 26" in all out of this spring storm.
We took the kids out sledding at our favorite place and we were the only ones there! What a great time!



No, I didn't knock the kid over.
