Grandma Gloria Visits St. Louis!

Grandma Gloria came to visit us last weekend--YAY!  We were all VERY excited to be able to spend time with her.  In a short weekend we sure packed in a lot of fun!  Enjoy the pics and thanks again for the fun time, Grandma Gloria!  We miss you!

Botanical Gardens:

We played at FOUR local parks:



We made a special trip to the Disney store to buy a certain little girl a Cinderella dress for her birthday.  She is one HAPPY little tike with this new dress!


 
Grandma read the kids LOTS of books:

 

 We went to the zoo with Grandma Gloria and our friends Matt and Tracie:
  

Cal kept hugging the goats over and over.

Julia said that he was her best friend.



Getting ready for the sea lion show!

Awesome April

The weather has been beautiful here--we enjoyed getting outside A LOT this weekend!

First bike ride of the season to Forest Park.




Forsest Park Outing


On top of the hill is St. Louis Art Museum (also free!)

Some local churches held a grill out for Sem students/families.  Our kids had a blast!

(Daddy had fun too!)

"Thanks for the new outfits from Hawaii, Grandma Gloria and Papa Mark!  We love them!"


(Cal likes to give a lot of kisses lately.)

Playing in the sensory table.


Such a honey.

Easter 2013

We had so much fun spending Easter in Hubbard.  We hadn't been able to come home since November.  Needless to say, we enjoyed family, fresh air, and fun!  Thanks for making it so much fun, Mom and Dad!

Playing in the front yard.

Our new favorite picture.

She wasn't super excited to meet the Easter Bunny... Calboy simply refused!

Hubbard Easter Egg Hunt!
 



"We scored!"

No visit to Hubbard is complete without a haircut from Great Aunt Jane!

Cal's first haircut.  Awww!

"Look at what the Easter Bunny brought me!"

"Hey, I can get the hang of this!"
