girls

These girls keep me busy and entertained! I LOVE it!

Cherry Blossom festive

such a beautiful time of year here in DC! We got up early and headed downtown before it got too busy!

So pretty!

This kid climbs everything even walls under overpasses!

Corryn

This girl does not like to stay still. She is constantly pulling herself up on anything!

Monday--sweet day off of school

I love taking the kids "hiking". There are tons of awesome trails all around where we live. I picked a place we have been once before but was determined to get farther than we did last time. The kids usually are very excited to go on one of mom's "wild adventures" BUT....they usually always love it once we are there!

Conner is definitely ALL boy! He love to climb every and anything! The river/creek flows along this bike/walking trail and Conner loves to hope rocks to cross the water. K is a little bit more hesitant. Conner talked her across the water! She was pretty proud!

These four kids are simply a joy in my life! I love hanging out with them!

He is so adventurous!

The babies love to get out and about!

Our walks always end because one of us has to use the bathroom. This was a great day out and about and the first hot day of the year!

Easter 2015--He is Risen!!!!

We made it home earlier than we had planned! We got in late Saturday night! Easter morning was amazing just remembering the joy of the day! We have new life in Christ! Conner read the resurrection story from Mark ( his choice)! Love hearing our kids know the true meaning of the seasons! We took the family out to enjoy God's creation! The kids biked, Tim and I ran, and Tim pushed the stroller! 

The girls had their very first Easter dinner-----awesome bread! They gnawed on that the entire meal!

Ben and Jerry's

Nothing like taking an unexpected pit stop...... just a little tour!

We all enjoyed a little ice cream! Hey if you know anyone that works for Ben and Jerry's they get so much free ice cream every week that they don't know what to do with it so offer to take it off their hands!

Just another day in VT

Kaia has been smiling tons! She has even been giving some strangers a couple grins! This is big!!

Corryn of course doesn't stop smiling! Her latest thing is that tongue is ALWAYS out!

conner still climbs anything he sees!

Kaitlyn had her buddy in the pool determined to teach her to float!

These two are always up to something!

Stowe,VT

We spent our spring break here...in Vermont! Absolutely gorgeous! This day cleared up and was absolutely beautiful!! They of course skied all the diamonds and several double diamonds! So much fun!

Another first

getting all dolled up for there first swim

warming up to the idea

K is such a big helper

Daddy can do it all

These two are so good when they are good! They do love it each other.....even when they fight!

Swimming was exhausting!1 :0)

More friends!!!!! We miss these guys!

MO MO!

2 sets of twins here with K in the middle! We had to stop by A and L's house to say a quick hello!

Kailtyn has really missed A and L!

Niko!!!

We sure have missed our neighbors! We made a quick stop in our old hood! We said hi to our renters and then tired to stop by everyone's house but not many were home. We did get to hang out with N and V! These guys have grown up together so it has been hard not having them one house over to play with! It was so good to watch the kids play together!!
