Picture Day







Olivia's Bunnies. Her friend Sophie from school is on the left.













Emma's Hoppers. Her friend Sophie is three down on the left. Rocco from preschool was MIA.









Lil Kickers picture day. Emma and Olivia are pretty used to "posing" for the camera so they did great. It's refreshing to not have your screaming child center stage in the photo. Girls did a duo pose - look for your copy in the mail!

Work It

Checking out the downtown view from the parking garage.

Hey, what's Mom's password?









You're hired!







Yummy free breakfast!









Bring your kids to work today! Em and Liv drove with me to LoDo to my new building for a free breakfast and tour of my office. My co-workers were quite surprised to see how much the girls have grown ... it's been a few months since they last visited. Pastries, fruit, muffins and juice - a wonderful start to the "work" day!

Bikey Time































After our egg hunt we grabbed the bikes for a ride around the block. Emma on her purple two-wheeler and Olivia on her trike. Had to show off their bike skills for Grandma, of course.

The Bunny Was Here

Jelly Beans!





Look what we found...














Gotcha!









Ready to GO!










Awwwwwwwwww.





























Thank you Easter Bunny!

















MMMMMMMMMMMM.



















The Easter Bunny was very generous this year! Baskets for Emma and Olivia and a backyard full of eggs, oh my. We made Pioneer Woman cinnamon rolls for breakfast and the girls are working the sugar off by playing dress up and racing cars. Happy Easter everyone!

Happy Easter!



Thank you to everyone for the Easter cards and gifts. The girls had such a wonderful weekend full of Princess and bunny surprises. We love you all!

Pug n Park

Summer. Seriously, Eloise's twin.











Kiss fest.

















Pug Meetup was this afternoon so we walked Eloise and Isabelle down to their play date. About 20 pugs of all shapes and sizes showed up for some sniffing, wiggling and grunting. We also met "Summer" a two year old pug originally from California who could be Eloise's twin - except that she is completely mellow - not crazy like a crack baby.

Puzzling





















U. D. and Jill B. sent Emma and Olivia a cool three-part Princess puzzle for Easter. Grandma helped Emma put them together and voila! Now, she's working on the two Princess puzzles Great-Aunt Dawn sent her. Thanks again everyone!

Soccer







Em and Liv had another Lil Kickers class this morning so Grandma got to see their skills!

Bunny Loot







After dinner at Saucy Noodle with Grandma, we came back to the house to Skype with Uncle Douggie and Jill B. Doug and Jill had sent the girls an Easter package full of puzzles, books and socks - so cool! Thanks for the gifts and Happy Easter!

Play Group Egg Hunt

On the way to Lucinda and Hudson's house!

Grandma, look what we found!





















































The Bunny Crew.



















Lucinda "tickling" Mommy and Hudson with the carrot top.









































Carrots and cupcakes - the perfect Easter combo.

















































Lucinda and Hudson hosted the play group's Easter Egg Hunt today after dance class. Jack, Kate, Emma, Lucinda and Olivia turned the backyard upside down to find the treasures. Candy, bouncy balls, tatoos and whistles - how fun! Thanks again for having us over!
