Is it SUMMER Already?!?!

We had a really nice family day on Sunday. I had a photo session in the morning so everyone decided to go with me. I did my session while the 3 of them played on the swings. Then we went home and pretty much played in the backyard all day. It was sooo HOT out that the kids had a lot of fun running around, playing with the hose, our slide, water table etc. It was just nice to get out and spend time together especially when I had just worked 3 days in a row... BLAH!

Logan running around in the grass as I try and shoot him with the hose!

Playing on our slide......oh too cute brother and sister L-O-V-E, lol!

Logan always ready to pose, LOL!

A smile from Kira? Where the heck did that come from?

Kira and her beach chair. She told me she was going to lay out and get some sun. Is she really only TWO?!

I am sure we'll have more days like this but hopefully sooner than later we can get all the KIDS together over here and have a FUN day like this!

Happy Easter 2009!

Hope everyone had a Happy Easter! It turned out to be a really NICE day! We spent our day with bruch at our house with my family and then dinner over at my parents house. The kids got so many GIFTS and so much CANDY you would of thought it was Christmas and Halloween rolled into ONE!

This is Logan and Kira's Easter baskets that the Easter bunny brought to our front door!

Boy were they EXCITED! Especially Logan.

LOVE this picture of him! His eyes are dead on and AMAZING to me!
Poor Kira wasn't too happy with the Easter egg hunt because Logan was way too fast for her and was getting all the eggs. She was so mad and frustrated. Every time someone told her where eggs were she would go that way and then Logan would sweep in like a hurricane and whisk them away. It was funny but he needs to learn to share or actually they both need to learn to share a little more.

After the egg hunt they were surprised that Uncle Colin had also gotten them Easter baskets with goodies and tons more candy (he had a little influence from a new female friend). Then later that day when we went to my parents for dinner they got 2 more HUGE Easter baskets! I seriously don't remember getting this much stuff at Easter when we were kids, LOL! Happy Easter!

Easter Bunny!

Yeah! Today we went to visit the Easter Bunny (well take photos)! Thank goodness there was hardly any wait. I just hate having to wait in a long line for anything let alone with these two guys, LOL! Pretty much I take them to do these pictures every year so that I can compare from the year before. Vic and I were pretty sure Kira would "freak" out but then again she may surprise us. This first picture is from 2007! Look at my little babies!

Easter Bunny 2008

And this year 2009! Kira absolutely did NOT want to sit on the Bunny's lap or get near him! I was cracking up laughing but then kept trying to think what I could do to get her to cooperate. Also, I know how annoying it is to be standing in line behind a child who's turn is up and isn't cooperating. She cried so hard and just wanted Mommy to hold her.

Obviously this Easter Bunny has been around the block a few times because he decided to scoot clear over to the other side of the bench. What a GENIOUS! I placed Kira on the other side and had to hold her hand for a moment but then she was fine. I guess she was far enough away from him and stopped crying. Although, it took a while to get a little smile out of her or actually any type of emotion at all, LOL! So I told Logan to give his sister a BIG HUG because that always usually works. Look below because it DID!!! Hooray for BIG BROTHERS! :)


Please keep in mind that these are crappy images because I had to take a picture of a crappy picture. Anyhow, YEAH for EASTER! It's on it's way!

Just Like Heaven...

We went out to dinner tonight with the kids and when we were leaving the sky looked just like this. I turned to Vic and said, "OMG, It looks just like heaven, it's beautiful". Then he says to me, "How do you know what heaven looks like"? I said, "I don't know but it just does". What do you all think.... beautiful?
