Boston

We got to spend five fabulous days in Boston with my parents and sister Katie. It was amazing. We did the freedom trail, went on the duck tours, saw a Celtics game, did a tour of Fenway Park, saw Harvard, visited Concord and spent great time with Papa, Lulu, and Aunt Kate. We also saw the ducks in the Public Gardens from the book "Make Way For Ducklings," and went to the Boston Children's Museum; and somehow all are pictures are from those two locations, except for the one with the cute new umbrellas (thanks Grandma and Grandpa) I think Katie and my Mom took a lot more we will have to get. We loved Boston. It was a beautiful city and we loved the public transport. Thanks so much Mom and Dad for the great trip! I highly recommend this trip to everyone.

Busch Gardens

While my Uncle Kelly and Aunt Liz were here they took us to Busch Gardens. It was so much fun!! They are great. We wish they could visit more often!! They were so nice to our girls and so fun to hang out and talk with. Thanks again guys!

Easter

We had lovely Easter weekend. My Aunt Liz, Uncle Kelly, and cousin Braden came out from Utah for a week and we spent the weekend watching conference and exploring Richmond. For Easter celebrations there was a ward Easter egg hunt and a visit from the Easter bunny. My aunt gave them these cute bunny ear clips, which they loved. Eliza is very interested in the Easter Bunny and still talks about him even though I didn't even take the girls to see him. The other day she said that she wants to be the Easter bunny when she grows up. Her other life long aspiration is to be a beautiful butterfly. She asked when she would be old enough to turn into one....I'm so glad she has started setting goals so early in life.

Silly girls.

Maymont

Kara and her family and Susan and JA were able to come down a couple weeks ago. We spent the day at the Children's Museum and Maymont. It is so fun to have them so close. It was a wonderful day!! We can't wait to see them all again.

Spring Break

We spent spring break at the Outer Banks in North Carolina with a bunch of families from out ward. It was a little cold, but warmed up at the end of the week. We had a blast playing with friends and had fun getting to know everyone better. Every night we would put the kids the bed and stay up late playing games. The kids always had someone to play with and we had a great time at the nearby sand dunes.

Lydia loves babies and is always so soft and gentle with them. Addy is such a cutie she couldn't resist.

Our friend Kim threw a great party at the beach for her daughter Milah. Here's the birthday girl.

They had a great St. Patrick's day parade. They threw out more candy then we get at Halloween.

Justin's Birthday...the big 29

Eliza threw Justin another great party this year complete with funfetti cake. We made our good friends the Churches help eat cake. Eliza was so excited to start the party the minute he walked in the door she wanted him to blow out the candles.
