Dying Easter Eggs


We had a great time dying eggs this year for Easter. Ameya and Ava both love doing "crafty" activities and of course, we never have enough eggs for their liking.


Ava is really growing and able to do so much for herself....or maybe I should say, wants to do so much for herself and we only had a couple eggshell disasters.


As you can see from the pictures, Ava loves her big sister and Ameya is awesome with Ava. They have so much fun doing activities together.


I had out a bunch of Easter stickers as both girls like playing with stickers. I usually find them all over the house, stuck on furniture and windows and flooring. In this case, Ava was taking them and putting them all over Ameya. You can see a few of them in Ameya's hair and on her face. Ameya is always a great sport with her little sister. It was a great night.

Feeding the Giraffes



We have a great zoo here in the Springs and when the weather is nice we go up to see the animals. One of our favorite activities is to feed the giraffes. At first the girls were nervous but now they love it.

Crazy Spring Weather


It is definitely Spring in the Rockies. During Spring Break a couple of weeks ago we had three different snow storms blow in. This is a picture of the snow build-up after just an hour.


The next day Scott went out with the girls and built a snow cave.
I stayed inside and supplied the hot chocolate.

Too Quite



Ava was taking a nap while we had some friends over visiting. Scott thought he heard Ava get up but I told Scott, Ava would come downstairs if she woke-up. Plus if she did wake up, we'd hear her if she left her room. I was thinking what could she get into in her room. She would just be playing.....yeah right, playing with the lotion that got left in there.
Thank goodness we went up and checked on her before she used the whole bottle.
