My Heaven on Earth




This is Dana, Erin's new little angel. She was so precious while we were taking pictures.



We just had to visit our favorite place that we went last summer in Pennsylvania, Winterthur Gardens! I enjoyed every peaceful minute... The kids couldn't stop smiling as they ran wild in and out of the blossoming trees. Looking at these pictures makes me miss my summer home last year in Chadds Ford, PA. I wonder if I will ever get the opportunity to visit this beautiful place again.

Saturday...the longest day.

Walker in the Oscar Meyer Wienermobile, it fits him well. Saturday morning we went to a city wide yard sale. My greatest find was kelty's $2 scooter and a kitchen knife for 25cents. Unfortunately i did not buy the wienermobile.
Later on that day we went to our favorite park to play. Part of the park is actually a water park! It was pretty cold outside but that did not stop walker from playing in the water.




Living on the beach, this is pretty much how every day ends...the kids have stripped down to nothing, again.

Spring Pictures














We went and got the kids pictures taken with their cousin Connor and I absolutely love them! Our good friend Mary Clark is such a wonderful photographer and I just can't get enough of her pictures. The day we went to get the pics done i was at the mall and saw these cute little trucker hats couldn't resist a skater themed picture, Matt loved them of course. This last picture was pretty much how all of them went...it was very difficult to keep the hats on. Thank you Mary for being so talented and energetic.

Jersey Shore

New little friends
Walker eating the sand and rocks.
I love this picture of Ellie:)


We finally made it to Jersey!!! The place that we live is so much fun, there are playgrounds right on the beach in front of our apartments.
We got together with some of the wives the other day and let the kids play on the beach. There are so many cute little girls out here that are Kelty's age... they all had so much fun playing together.

We went to the tulip festival last thursday and it was so pretty. My grandparents and some of my aunts came with us to enjoy a perfect day at thanksgiving point (they had 85% of the tulips in bloom).

Las Vegas

Let's just say that we did come back $100 richer than when we arrived:)

Man, was I thirsty for a gaint Coke!

We went to St. George and Vegas with my family for one last trip together before we leave. We got to stay at the Wynn hotel and we saw David Copperfield. Matt, Megan, and my Dad were all part of the show (which made it more fun and more realistic). Kelty's favorite part was the M&M Factory because she got to eat as many M&Ms as she wanted.

The HUNT

We went to the big Easter egg hunt in Mapleton. The hunt lasted about 5 minutes with 30 kiddies and 100 eggs... Kelty found 8 eggs, Chanel got 30 eggs, and Walker, zero eggs.
During the hunt I would put eggs in Walker's basket and he would quickly take them out, open them and dump the candy back on the lawn.

Chanel offered to give Kelty and Walker some easter egg hunting tips for next year.

Walker's consolation prize for dumping all his eggs back on the lawn... a COOKIE:)
