Fun in the sun...

This past weekend Paul and Kaitlyn had a great time playing oustide- especially with the red fire truck, which Kaitlyn has figured out how to get off and on of (at least some of the time!).


I was also able to pull Kaitlyn's hair (which is very fine) into a small ponytail- which she pulled out every time within a few minutes.
This picture seems to be one I have alot of... Kaitlyn reaching for the camera when she sees me taking a picture:
And, Kaitlyn was just hanging out in the grass after too many rides....

Easter 2010

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter. We had a great weekend- and couldn't believe how sunny and warm it was!

We hadn't even gotten all the way into Gram and BB's driveway on Friday afternoon when Paul spotted the first egg- and he's off:
His shorts are almost falling down since he was running so quickly to get this egg:
The Kaitlyn dance- it involves flapping your arms up and down as if you were trying to fly:
Why hunt for eggs when I can play with mulch?
Oh- wow- there's something in the eggs!
Why hunt for eggs when I can play with a hose? About 10 minutes later Kaitlyn was drenched, Gram got squirted across her legs and we were all laughing quite a bit.
Checking out the Cheerios from the eggs:

Trouble.... need I say more?
