Another pic

Took this one just as I was getting to work. Thought it was pretty.

Snow in April

Temperature extremes. That's what this last week has been about. 70's one day. The next you wake up to this. Frustrating. But beautiful in a way.

Random Easter party pictures

I had a few random pictures that I really liked from our Easter party, so I thought I'd post them here.

This one is of Elena and Falishia doing a craft together. Cute picture and cute girls.


Elizabeth just kicking back after the sumo wrestling in tubes.

Kevin entertaining his cousin Ian with his PSP game of baseball. They would play together with Kevin helping Ian to push the buttons to get a hit on baseball. Ian thought this was the BOMB! I just thought they were cute together.


Elizabeth wants to play sumo with one of her cousins.

And here I am playing the stick pull with my little buddy - nephew Larsen. Really love that little guy!

Easter Sunday!

We took pictures of just our family on Easter Sunday in our church clothes. The girls wore matching yellow dresses. I wanted to post those pictures here.

This one is of "The Guys" - Kevin and I.

Family Picture

We had so many of the family together that we had to take a family picture. No everyone is in it, but it was so special to us to have Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Lee in the picutre and sharing this special day with us. We love them so much and are so grateful for all they have done for us to get the family as large and close as we are. The older we get, the more we come to appreciate those that have come before us. We love you Grandma and Grandpa Lee!

Easter Egg Hunt at Grandma's House

After the games were over, we let the kids all go on an Easter Egg hunt. We got such cute pictures of my kids that I thought I had to post them here.

Easter at Grandma's house!

Well we had our family easter party at my mom's house. This was the first year my family has been able to attend because of living out of state until last summer. We started the day off with games that had everyone involved, including the adults. Here is one of Elena in a kind of sumo wrestling-type game against Marci. My brother Chris is helping Marci out some. She really liked it.

And here we were playing a stick-pulling game. Somehow or another they talked me into doing this. I started out pulling against one of my nieces (Kate) and ended up with many nieces and nephews (and my own children - traitors LOL) all pulling against me. You can see the result!

Here is my niece Kate (the champion of the kids anywhere near her age or slightly older) pulling against Elena, who is much older. Kate wins no problem in this battle.

And here is my buddy Kevin, sumo-battling against his cousin Celest.

The family

After the first session we took a picture by this statue. We all sat in the Legacy Theater to see the session.

Elena too

Elena sat with me and really enjoyed the trip.

Going to conference

Here's a shot of Kevin and Elisa.

Riding the train

We took public transportation to the church conference center today. The girls really liked it.

Kevin and Bingo

Yup. That puppy made the rounds with the whole family.

Elena and Bingo

Elena had that puppy next to her the whole night and it was hard to get him away for the others to play with.

Amaya's new puppy

It's a Yorkie and his name is Bingo. He's adorable and everyone just loved playing with him. We went for Fsmily night to her house. Bingo is just 8 weeks old. Elena couldn't get enough of him!
