Easter!

Another Easter Sunday has come and gone but not without a huge Easter egg hunt at Granddad and Grandma's. As in previous years, the girls all wore their matching dresses from their Granddad which made them look just as adorable as ever. This year the little boys were finally old enough to partake in the activities which was so much fun to watch. Cooper even threw a few elbows to get at those coveted dollar bill eggs. That's my boy!
After egg hunts and a yummy dinner, everyone was stuffed and chocolated-out. Another great Easter Sunday with the family!
The Girls in their matching Easter dresses (bought by Granddad of course)
All of the Grandkids (except Griffin and Logan who were dearly missed by all!)

And they're off....


Even the little boys got into the hunt. Everyone had a great time!

Just a cute picture of Cooper. He just LOVES yogurt!

Cooper's 1st Haircut

Yesterday, after much agonizing, we finally decided to cut off Cooper's cute little baby curls. I just loved those curls, but only after bath time or in the humidity of Hawaii. Any other time, those cute curls where just a big bunch of frizz. So, it was time for them to go. We had Grandma Shelly cut his hair for the first time just as she has done for every other grandchild. He actually didn't mind it too much until she had to cute around his ears...then he start to squirm a bit. But before we knew it, our little man appeared...roaring to go.

1st Day of Spring...FINALLY!!!

Finally, after way too much snow and way too many cold days, the sun has decided to make an appearance in Snoqualmie. It was a beautiful day today and actually, a little on the warmer side. So of course, we took advantage of it and spent the day outside. The kids loved it and so did we. Hopefully, it will stick around for a little while...but I won't hold my breathe!

Coop loved to steer the ship!


I can hold on longer then you can...


Sadie had worked all year at school at making it from one end of the monkey bars to the other. She finally did it and had to show Mommy and Daddy!


Coop's a little dare devil...as if any of you didn't know that already. He flings himself down the slide and smacks his bottom on the ground.
Then starts giggling!

And the biggest monkey of them all....Daddy

Sadie's 1st visit to her new house!

Yesterday we finally had the chance to take Sadie to our new house. Luckily, she loved it even more then we though she would. The owners had moved out all of their furniture the weekend prior so she was able to run all over the house and slide across the hardwood floors in her socks. She was so excited about her new room and couldn't wait to paint it pink. I know this transition is still going to be hard on everyone but its nice to know that she is excited.

She didn't like the mustard yellow walls either.
She can't wait to paint them pink!
