Springtime!!!

For mother's day my wonderful children got me some flowers to plant. Of course my little man helped me plant these beautiful flowers along with some help from Nanny even from Virginia!

Also some cute pictures of the two little ones!!

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!

Recently....

...we have done many many things!!!

We enjoyed some delicious ice cream with great friends at a wonderful ice cream parlor in Pasadena. Look at how big this sundae is, it was really so good!

While there we saw a real railroad crossing with the lights flashing and everything!!

Sarah's hair has been growing, I have been testing out new things in her hair just trying to get her used to wearing something in her hair!

She also had a double ear infection and was very dizzy because of it, she had a run in with the concrete wall on our patio...SAD SAD DAY!

Cousin TUCKER finally came to visit us and it was a terrific time!

We went to a Tongan Party with pig roasting and everything...it was great to hang out with Derick's family and the food was really really good! We were glad to have Devin back for a bit before he is deployed, we will miss you and love you Devin!
