We like to go bowling....but only in Los Angeles would you have a problem getting into the local bowling alley because they were filming a show of some sort. The children were very sad and then BRILLIANT Serene thought of this black light miniature golf place (can't remember the actual name right now...SERENE??). It was a lot of fun and we all had a great time!!

Past few Weeks...
The past few weeks have been very busy for all of us, we had Kurtis' International Week project at school, I was working in the office, Derick is wrapping up his school year at work, and it was Father and Sons campout as well. I don't have pictures of the camp out, although I heard they saw deer, poop, horse, and more poop. I also heard someone snored really loud, and men I can tell you it was Derick!! I do have pictures of us girls heading to the donut shop and park the morning before the boys got home!!!


The park was pretty empty so the little girls were very excited to actually get to rid the tire swing!
Here is Kurtis' Tongan Bulletin board for International Week (I know there are two pictures that look the same, but he kept making weird faces and I could not get a great photo. He never makes this pose either, but for some reason when I said pose like a Tongan this is what he thought of??). Kurtis' class chose part of his heritage and learned about the island of Tonga. Kurtis interviewed his Grandpa and we got lots of great stories about the Pikula Family that I was able to put onto a DVD! It was a lot of fun learning more about the cultures, food, and other exciting parts of Derick's family heritage. I am excited to hopefully learn more at the Pikula Family reunion this summer!!

Annual Trip to....
The car show....my favorite cars to go and see are cars like these
But mostly I love taking people with faces like these! They all loved the cars and had a great time!!
After the car time, Sarah had to have some dress up time. She not only can walk in these heels but can run in them. It is too funny!

Spring Break...
For spring break, just like every year we went to Sea World!!! This is Kurtis' and I's favorite place on EARTH! This time we got to go to the new dolphin show and we are excited for the new Shamu show which should come out by the next time we go later this year!


This kids were pretty tired after a long day at the park.
We saw my favorite temple the San Diego Temple, which I think looks like the castle in NeverEnding Story. (Now you know why it is my favorite).
And we saw this awesome Marine truck which is very similar to the Army truck that Derick has driven. I took a picture for Kurtis to enjoy since he was asleep.
For Easter we had lunch at Derick's parent's house where we dyed Easter eggs and enjoyed some delicious food.

Then we had a wonderful Easter Sunday morning at church. Happy Easter!

The Beach....
We enjoyed hanging out as a family and going down to the beach to take a stroll. The weather has been great lately and it was really wonderful to just enjoy each others company!!
Kurtis climbed a tree....
Just look how happy he was he did it all by himself!
Then Sarah had to do it too!
Kurtis also got a hair cut!! It was getting a little shaggy!

Family, Friends and Fun in the sun!!!
The weather has been sunny and wonderful lately so we have been playing outside with our family and friends.



We went and visited Derick's parents, and had a great time seeing some of his siblings!

Three generations...Derick's mom is actually where our children get their hair, eye, and skin coloring from.

Kurtis loves to wrap Buddy up in blankets.

Sarah loves this dog!!
Kurtis' two bottom 6 year old molars are completely in so we are waiting for the upper ones.


Sarah and her friend Lolin have been really enjoying the dress up clothes that Sarah got last Christmas.



Derick has been playing basketball, and Sarah has loved watching every minute of it!

I have been enjoying the outdoors with the family and cooking some delicious treats!
