I'm Going to Disneyland!

The Man had the week off so we pulled the Boy out of school Thursday and Friday and headed down to L.A.  Grandpa came to join us, too. We decided one day at Disneyland would be plenty for the kids.  Sure enough, it wore them right out.  We saw Mickey right away.  The Girl got to meet Minnie.  The Boy decidedly liked roller coasters - Splash Mountain in particular.   The weather was absolutely perfect and the crowds weren't all that bad.  We had a wonderful time!

Looks Like I Got Punched

I have horrible teeth.  My most recent adventure in fixing them is having an implant.  This is what my face looks like 5 days after the first step. 

Pretty, huh?

Memory of the Boy

One thing I want to remember about the Boy at this age is his gift for gab.  He loves to talk.  More than that, though, I want to remember that he seems nearly incapable of speaking while sitting. Often he walks in circles while telling a story. If he has something to say at the dinner table, he almost always stands up to say it.  He stands up and plops down multiple times during dinner.  He is standing next to his food right now to tell me that the Girl is spilling sauce down her face.

Easter Sunday

We had a beautiful Easter Sunday.  Earlier in the month, the Boy helped me make "bacon and eggs" candy for all the neighbors.
Before church, we snapped a couple of pictures of the punks.  Unfortunately, it was difficult for the Girl to navigate the stairs in her poofy dress.  Right as we were coming down to take the pictures, she took a tumble and got a slightly black eye.
I loved these bench pictures.  I wish I would have noticed the price tag on the bottom of her shoe, though.
We had an egg hunt after church.  The Girl's nursery leader (and basically the person who takes care of her during sacrament meeting, too) came over to play.  Happy Easter!
