Serious Catch Up

I have put this off long enough. I don't even have a reason for my lack of posts. Except life is just plain busy! So here we go ...

My favorite handsome hubby had a birthday! I am so grateful for him. He is the best husband, father and friend. I must love him tons to make him Tres Leches Cupcakes (a little labor intensive, but SOOO worth it!) for his big day! We love you sweetie!

We can now cross off "make sandbox" from our to-do list. Dennis with help of Uncle Josh and Davis spent a couple of days prepping, building and hauling tons of sand to make this huge sandbox. It really can hold the entire neighborhood! Enough elbow room for all!

And this little guy helped too!

And these ones provided moral support!

It has proved to be a successful project!

Easter 2011:

It all began with the "hunt" for the baskets. 5 clues lead the kids all around the house - inside and out.

That sandbox was a perfect hiding spot for one of the clues!

But eventually the clues guided them to the closet where the baskets were hung -

Ahhh, it was worth every minute of the hunt! We were lucky enough to have the Mills family join us over Easter weekend. So the Easter Bunny found Rylan too!

See? The sandbox = fun, fun, fun!

Spring soccer:

You never know what you are going to get. Rain, snow, sun. Or all three during the same game! Davis continued to be Goalie for his competition team this year. Natalie decided to give it try again. Now those two are just made for soccer!

I guess I need to get more pictures of Davis playing soccer. Onward and upward! Great season Natalie and Davis!
