Hiking

Sunday turned out to be a terrific day! Mama didn't have to go back to church and teach her class so we took advantage of the day. After Mass we went out to Starbucks together then went home to get ready. We packed up a yummy lunch and went on a little hike down at Larrabee park. We saw a train and were actually underneath it in the tunnel (which Sam absolutely loved) and then went down to the beach for a little picnic. They also have a fun park there! After our adventure there we went out to Grandma's for our Sunday dinner and some more time to make yummy mudpies! Sam and I worked together to make a delicious one!

Ready!

Mama and I went out on this rock but I was sure to say that I didn't want to go swimming today Sibling love!

I'm being a "Grown Up Lady!"

Ahhh....

Mama and Dada had fun on the swing today...silly!

Springtime!

The last few days have really felt like spring here and I have thoroughly enjoyed it! Playing outside is the best and I have even got to play at Grandma's house a few times this week. I love catching frogs, ladybugs, and all kinds of creatures! In fact, I caught several different frogs and didn't want to let them go. These pictures are from the last few weeks, I don't have any recent ones, I guess we have been having too much fun!

Playing with my brother, can you tell I'm excited for spring with my pants?

Down at Boulevard Park, chilly but pretty!
Sam's birthday cake! Yummy!!!

Playing with my brother in the backyard. He sure loves water and can find it anywhere!

The Saint Patrick's Day treats we made my friends for Mom's Group

Snuggled up in our jammies reading stories before bed, one of my favorite parts of my day

March

These past few weeks have been full of fun, family, and preparations. We had fun last weekend with my dad on his birthday and now we are getting ready for my brother's birthday. I love it when my relatives come to visit! Last weekend my Aunt Joanie came and this weekend my Grandma and Papa from Spokane are coming along with my Aunt Becky and Uncle Doug. I can't wait to celebrate Sam's birthday. I sure hope we get to do something fun!

Making my crown of thorns for Lent. I think my brother wrote about it already but this is a way we can prepare for Easter. When we do good works or make sacrifices we take out the "thorns" and then by Easter it will be a crown of roses! We have done a few other things as Lent begins on Wednesday!

Sam loves to help me with everything!
Playing with Auntie, she always has the best games and this one was a huge hit!

I caught one!!

Down at the park on our beautiful Sunday afternoon yesterday.

I can actually stop and smile for the camera now!

Playing down at the beach with my dada! I enjoyed a lot of time with him this weekend since my mom was busy at church.

Smiling with mama!

Painting my crown, almost done!
