Easter Egg Hunt

This year we had a beautiful day on Easter and the girls got to have a big Easter egg hunt in the backyard. We spent the afternoon outside, and then Lily and Juliet searched for the baskets the Easter bunny left them in the house. They had a lot of fun with it...and ate way too much candy!

New Swing Set

This week is Lily's Spring Break and we are thrilled to have put up a swing set a few days ago! We recently had a drainage system put in our backyard to control the flooding we get when it rains and now we have a great space for playing. The swing set also has a playhouse with little stools, window boxes, a chalkboard, and a phone. We just got a bucket swing to replace one of the regular swings so that Jules can enjoy swinging too. What fun the girls will have with this for years to come!

Gramps and Mimi Visit

Gramps and Mimi visited last weekend and we got a chance to celebrate Lily's, Juliet's, and Steven's birthdays all at once! Amy brought her baking supplies and the girls helped her make a Dora cake for Jules and a Sponge Bob cake for Lily and Gramps. The kids also got to make and decorate bunny Easter baskets in preparation for Easter. We have enjoyed having so many visitors this month!

Juliet is Two

Juliet turned two last week and she is growing quickly. At her doctor's checkup, she charted in the 95th percentile for height! She is very sweet tempered (except, of course, when she is throwing a tantrum) and she probably gets away with a lot just by being so cute. She loves dressing up, playing with dolls, singing and dancing, and anything to do with Dora.

Happy birthday Jules!
