Easter

Seeing what the Easter Bunny brought them

Kaili made this for me and Jason for Easter. It was her first time sewing. Thanks Granny for spending the time to teach her. We love it Kaili girl!

Kaili

Sasha

So we had a quiet Easter this year. The girls have been pretty sick with strep a few times in a row and fevers non stop, but they were happy to try on their new dresses and let me take their pics. Jason had signed up for a shift a couple weeks prior (not realizing it was Easter) and had to work all day. Luckily he was able to be home in the morning to watch them look for their eggs and find their Easter baskets. I made breakfast then we played nail salon for a while before we met Jason for lunch. By that time the girls were pretty tired from not feeling well and we hung out at home playing beauty parlor and watching their new movies. They looked so pretty in their dresses even not feeling very well. I hope everyone had a great Easter!

Kaili Won!

SHE WON 1st PLACE! I am so proud of Kaili she entered in the school reflections doing 3-D art. The theme was "A Patriot is" and she said, "A Patriot is someone who takes the right steps to become a good leader."

She made this out of fondant frosting all by herself. (thanks to Nana for putting her through classes to become a Wilton certified cake decorator) She made a pair of shoes (steps) a patriot hat, the flag, and the wagon (leading).

She had quite a bit of competition and I'm so proud that she did it on her own.

Great job Kaili girl! We love you!

Ending our trip in Las vegas seeing Cirque du Soleil

This was an awesome Christmas totally surprising the girls with a family trip to Las Vegas and California. We left Christmas morning right after breakfast. We had so much fun and really enjoyed the time with just the 4 of us. They really enjoyed Cirque du Soleil (Mystere) in Las Vegas. I would love to do something like this in the future. I loved spending quality time with my little family, what's a better gift than that?
