Four months in pics...

FEBRUARY

Having so much fun dressing up my real live baby doll ;)

 Boys having fun with Papa Sam building towers with math manipulatives.

 Sammy's first T-ball game of the season.

 Grandma Louise and Saron
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUBREY! 
Aubrey turned 11 this month.  We had birthday pics, but they were accidentally deleted before we transferred them on the computer :( 

MARCH

On our way to our first beach trip of the season.
A very sleepy Sammy. 

Saron was not happy with the beach at all, especially the water.  She did warm up to the sand however.

 The sand was just "okay."  Not many smiles while we were there.

Lots of smiles, and chills, from the boys. 

 The girls had great fun too.

 HAPPY 13TH BIRTHDAY HALEY!
Didn't realize we were out of candles until it was time for cake. So Haley opted for farm animal candles and a No. 5 for her age.  Of course, we happily obliged.  

APRIL
 
More ball field pics

Easter 2010

Some pics of the boys in the backyard.  Courtesy of Aubrey's capturing.

 My girls being goofy with my camera.

Girls playing with make-up (actually paint,) my camera, and Photoshop.  
I think they look pretty darn good. 

 Soccer time!


Robby finally had enough with his beautiful curls.  He chopped them all off.  I couldn't even watch :(

We got a new bird.  A hand-tamed cocketiel.
Her name is Delilah... (Unless of course we figure out that it is a boy, in which case his name will be Rico.) 




I will end the month of April with a pic of this gorgeous desert sunset, (courtesy of Haley ;)

MAY

Time for soccer for Shay!

The girls taking pics of their new Africa gear.

A visit from Aunt Tina and Gramma


Our boys helping the landscapers.  We are getting landscaping.... WHOOOOHOOOO!!!
  Can't wait to feel soft grass under my feet.


Family pic with ALL of us...  Even Robby, (taken for our three-month post placement for Saron.)
