Easter

Tallinn was so in awe of all the excitement! Easter morning was so chaotic, fun!

We dyed 5 dozen eggs. I thought it would take forever but the girls were mostly doing it themselves this year!

My silly girls didn't care how cold it was they are having fun burying their dinosaurs and play "Paleontologist."


The Easter Bunny brought us sand and sand toys for our sandbox! SO FUN, I can't wait for the first sand fight...

Tallinn's 1st Birthday

He dove right into his smush cake! He cut out the middle man and just used his mouth. His hands eventually made it into the cake. He also had help from Sienna and Marseille!

Talli-ho was given lots of wonderful toys! No more barbies for him, he got trucks and balls of his own to play with. Of course the girls got spoiled too. We are so lucky to be surrounded by wonderful friends and family!

Update

I'm not allowed to cut hair anymore. Whoops!

He was a little nervous at first, but when he saw Marseille having fun he started to enjoy it!

We are still trying to move back to Las Vegas, however, the housing market is so bad right now we're having a hard time selling :(

But, the good news is that we might be able to plant a garden this summer. YEAH!

I can't believe it! We are moving back to Las Vegas soon. Nick is already down there working, he drives home every weekend and then goes back. That is a lot of commuting. I worry about him driving so much.
I have to stay here until we can figure out our house situation :( We might be able to break even or worst case we have to pay a realtor to sell our house. That's ok, the house prices in Vegas are decent.
Wish us luck and I'll update if and when the move takes place!

Nick and I took a break from the kids to go to Puerto Rico! We took a rain forest tour and hiked up a river. We repelled down an 80ft waterfall and took three zip lines to get back. It was a lot of fun. We decided that we needed to do a harder hike on our own. We hiked 2 miles deep into the rain forest and found some secluded waterfalls.

We spent some time in Old San Juan, explored a castle, snorkeled for seashells and found a deserted beach. It was nice to have a break and spend alone time with each other, but I am happy to be back home with my family!

Halloween

The day started out with Franken Toast (french toast dyed green with whip cream and raspberry jelly). Then we headed over to the church to participate in the trunk-or-treat. My friend Shantell bought the cany and we decorated our trunk.

It was such a nice night last night! Not too cold and so much fun. Sienna was dressed as a zoo keeper, Marseille was a giraffe and Tallinn was a monkey. I was a tiger and daddy was supposed to be a bunny but he found a mask that he felt more comfortable wearing.

Sienna and Marseille had a great time. Marseille really got it this year, she didn't slow down all night. Sienna fell asleep in the wagon!

Hope everyone's Halloween was a great as ours. I love my little family so much!

Nick's Birthday

For Nick's birthday this year we decided to be a little silly. We went to Chuck E Cheese's! We had fun, the pizza was good a little pricey but yummy. Ian and Jack were reluctant to come but I know they had a good time.

My favorite part was watching the girls on the rollercoaster ride! It wasn't a real rollercoaster, it just went up and down with the screen. They always put their arms up in the car when we go down a hill.
