The Aquarium with Grandma & Grandpa

Grandpa is the coolest! Dylan has a special bond with his grandpa! I think they look so alike!
Grandma and her boy. Wow does Dylan love it when Grandma comes to town! I have to spend a whole week unspoiling him after she leaves!
We are having lunch before we went to see the fish. We had so much fun when my parents came to visit!! I wish they lived closer!

Happy Easter

How fun it is to color eggs! Especially when you are 2! Dylan was amazed at the whole thing, but what impressed him the most was the white crayon! He made some great pictures on his eggs!



Eating her basket was much more fun than her presents.



Get the Grass!



Dylan found a sucker in his basket. He loved finding his eggs on the hunt because he realized there were stickers and candy in them!



Hazel had fun with her Easter Basket. So many bright colors. Her basket said princess on it, it was super cute!



Dylan woke up and was so excited when he saw his baskets and the eggs scattered everywhere! The Easter bunny didn't hide the eggs too hard so that he could find them easily.

Steve got the job!!!!!

I am so proud of Steve. He starts his new job with the WAC on April 21st!! He will be in their sponsorship side of sales!! Good job honey! You can visit their website if you click here. How fun! It will show all the teams in their conference and their standings, etc.

Here are the girls! We are working on their dance recital right now. They are going to perform a hula to Lilo and Stitch's Hawaiian Roller Coaster ride.



Doin their warm-ups.



My Little girls are getting soooo good. It has been a lot of fun teaching them how to hula!

Nuggets

A picture of JR warming up. It was fun to have the courtside experience for their warmups. Unfortunately Melo and AI warm up in their practice gym. It was still fun. I have been to more pro sports games this year than my whole life put together. It's been really fun....thanks to Steve.

Here's Gavin...he had a lot of fun too!




Uncle David, Dylan and Dad.




A picture of when Bruce the shark is chasing Dory.




Dylan absolutely LOVED Finding Nemo on Ice! He had so much fun. He actually would yell out "Nemo" when he would go off stage, scared that he was not coming back! He knew some of the words (scary) and had a blast! It was more fun to watch Dylan rather than the show!

David and Cate came to visit
