Preschool graduation-Gabi

Gabi has graduated from Happy Apple Preschool! She had a wonderful time with Teacher Laura and Teacher Mary! Thanks for a great year!

I have to explain this next picture. We wanted to take a picture of Gabi next to the Class of 12' sign. She would NOT smile and was just being pouty...

We bribed her to smile here ! :)

But then the sad face came back!

And this was why.... her feet and legs were all bitten up by ants!! Poor thing....

This cute little man was very interested in all of it and can't wait to go to school!

Easter

I know this post is late but we had a wonderful Easter! We had a small toys and things for their Easter baskets and a wonderful time with family eating yummy food. The kids watched the video He Is Risen. It was nice to have that video to show and have a conversation going about the Savior and what went on in his life during that time. After all He is the reason we celebrate Easter.

* I tried to get a picture of Ezra in his cute church clothes, but he did not want one that day. :(

Spring break!

We had a great spring break!

We went to the park with two ward groups, play date with Ciel, visited the Arizona Museum of Natural History ,  play date with  Brooke and Brenna and had extra swim class! 

Phew.. good thing it's only for a week!

Sorry no pictures of the events but here are some cute ones we took at date night with the kids the other week.

New home new friends...

If you haven't heard we moved over the new year to a new home in Gilbert. We are enjoying living all on one level. The children are enjoying the ability to make a mess in the home all at once. :)

If you would like a "tour" you can see that on my other blog.

With that I will leave you with pictures from my phone of the kids. Playing kitchen complete with a restaurant. I am told it is called the Pickle Cafe, if you want to make a reservation.
