So it has been a busy few months with vacations and trying to get our basement finished before summer decides to arrive so we can turn our focus to the outside projects. Addy also turned 4 this spring and in true great mom fashion I forgot to take any pictures but she had a great time so that is all that matters. I will try in the next few weeks to do my annual Addy update post. Now onto the pictures:
Addy and Graham found a new play place one Sunday morning while Josh and I where getting ready for church. They have toys everywhere but playing in the cabinet under their bathroom sink is way more fun!!
Grandma and Grandpa also took a trip to the Dominican Republic and brought this back for the kids so Addy had to break out her modeling skills and give it a try. So far it has gotten some use in the bathtub.
We also took advantage of my parents place in Lake Havasu, Arizona this spring and took a family trip before we had to pay for Graham to fly. We didn't do a lot but it was a nice relaxing, low-key vacation in the sun. Every morning we would get up and have breakfast and pack a lunch. Then we would head down to this great park by the lake and let the kids do whatever they wanted and then have a picnic lunch before heading home for naps. Then just a little shopping before going out for supper and then a little more play before bed.
This boy makes me smile!!

We spent lots of hours here and the kids played great together.
Graham thought the water was to cold but Addy loved it so one afternoon, her and I stayed to swim while Josh took Graham for a nap. She found a little boy by us to play with and had lots of fun playing in the sand and swimming.
Got a family pic-in, down on the beach that we spent most of our time at.
Grandma and Grandpa came in on our last day there and stayed to get the place closed up for the summer. Grandpa got the kids' car seats in his Razr and took them off roading in the desert. Graham was in heaven and Addy thought it was pretty fun too.
Both kids where pretty tired on our trip back to Las Vegas to fly home and were out before we got out of town. Graham had to copy his big sister so they both slept with blankets over their faces.

It is time for Addy's spring dance recitals. This was at a retirement home in town to help the girls get ready for their big performance in a week. They did so great.
One song they do is about a bumble bee so they all got these cute wings and antennas to add to their costumes. She is the cutest little bumblebee I have seen.
Graham also had surgery to have his adenoids out a few weeks ago so Auntie Stacey sent this super hero costume for him, but he wasn't in the mood for it at the time so Addy was happy to model it for us.
These are my two little artists. They both love to color so this is a frequent sight in our house.
