Farm Girls

We went to Kline Creek Farm this weekend....

These two jogged all the way! 

Well, with a brief stop at the bridge. 

This gigantic tree stump was tons of fun!



We saw horses, sheep, and lots of chickens...

...and a few toads in the creek!

Birthday Festivities

Annalie had a great birthday weekend!

We had a birthday brunch party on Saturday morning...

Reading with Grandpa Wally

This was her pose.

These two!

Annalie is a toddler on the go, and is becoming harder and harder to photograph!
"hop, hop, hop!" Anything drawn on the driveway is hopscotch to Annalie.


Grandma Jean really wanted a picture of Ani holding a flower... This was about the best we got!

Mid arm-swing

Yummy cake! She was so excited to hear everyone singing to her.


Reading to her brand new Elmo
Saturday evening BBQ with buddies 
We took it easy on Sunday, but still got out to enjoy the perfect weather.






Birthday Monday! We had "my 'mastics" (gymnastics, in case you don't speak toddler) class in the morning, followed by a kid's concert at the library. For lunch, a picnic with who else...? 

Mom made Ani pose next to the 2 collage...

Birthday dinner at the Choo Choo restaurant!


Happy, happy, happy birthday Annalie!!!!

Happy Easter!

The girls had a great Easter!
We spent the morning hunting for eggs...







Then we went to Grandma Marilyn and Grandpa Wally's to celebrate!


How exciting to be wearing almost the same dress as your super-cool teenage cousin???

Chalk and bubbles, before the rain


Aunt Bonnie captivated both Annalie and Maggie :)

Two crazy bunnies!

Egg Dyeing

Evelyn and I spent a rainy morning his week dyeing Easter eggs. Annalie was also present, although did not make it into any of the pictures :)

Checking to see if the tablet has dissolved.

We are working on "look at the camera and smile!" She's getting pretty good at it.

Shamrock Girls

We may not be Irish***, but we have a Shamrock--and Shamrock Shakes :)




*** Update! Auntie Maureen has informed me that the girls are actually a teeny bit Irish! Good thing someone knows the Nelson family tree ;)
