Easter part 2

Gabe's Easter basket - Note to self for next year: Don't put the toy on top, or Gabe won't look at anything else.

So excited that he found an egg!

Easter part 1

As per my father's request, here are a couple of pictures of Linus since his haircut. He looks like he lost 10 pounds!

We went to an Easter egg hunt at a large church this morning. Gabe enjoyed the bounce houses until time for the candy. Several of our friends were there as well.


We got in on the LAST pony ride of the day and Gabe loved it! Anyone want to buy him a pony for his next birthday? JUST KIDDING!

This week

So, none of these are fabulous pictures, but it's about time for an update. A couple of weeks ago, we planted a garden. We planted some peas, carrots, peppers, lettuce, and strawberries. We're keeping our fingers crossed! Some sprouts are starting to come up!

We went to the zoo yesterday and had a great time. They have a jeep there that all the kids love to climb on and the back half of the jeep is inside the cheetah's cage. We were lucky enough that a couple of cheetahs decided to jump into the back of the truck yesterday. It was awesome!
Wish I could have gotten a better picture, but they only stayed for about 30 seconds and it took me about that long to whip out my phone and get it ready. =)

My little water bug wanted to spend lots of time in this part of the children's zoo. And I spent a little time in there myself! It got up into the 90's yesterday.


Making some easter sugar cookies (and sampling some dough.


Swimming in his new pool (that I bought on clearance last summer). =)
