Easter Fun

I was so thankful to have my family here for the holidays we had lots of fun dying eggs. We had two easter egg hunts... one at night for the adults... poor Josh walked right into a rose bush (it was at night and the flashlights were the ones grandpa bought). To make it harder we put tape over them and then let them take the tape off later to make it easier finding the eggs. They were the glow in the dark eggs but they were still hard to find. Another tradition that we will definatly continue as the adults were soo excited. We also had an egg hunt inside due to the rain for the little ones. Here are Adrian (my great nephew), Cavern (my nephew) & Kalei (my grandaugher. Whew what a weekend.

April FOOLS


Well we just got back from a trip to Longview to show off the new grandbaby Kamaile. We also had cinnamon rolls... well actually it was minus the cinnamon but they were great!!! I also had another exciting time as I headed to bed (in the little house). I went in the bathroom to change and stepped on a WASP!! Yes I know just call me Lucky..the little house has it out for me. Tristan went into Paramedic mode and went to get me Benadryl. No Benadryl so I had two ibuprofen and went to sleep..

On the way home we stopped at White Pass for a bathroom break and played in the snow. Kalei wanted to walk in the snow and tried to catch it. She wanted to show her penguin the snow.

We also "celebrated" April Fools day. I made Spaghetti & Meatballs. (look very closely it is actually cupcakes with frosting... & the meatballs are Ferre Roche candy in seedless raspberry jam.. It was a big hit at work with the ladies.

Busy months



Well February was a busy month for us. We celebrate Tristan's birthday and made Valentines for my sister's work.












We also made cute photo holders out of Large binder clips.





March is starting out busy as well. We started with a blessing that had to be postponed due to illness for Kamaile. Then two birthdays. Kalei & Spencer both celebrated their birthdays. (their birthday is Mar 9). We celebrated with a birthday party for Kalei and then dinner for Spencer.















I found a cute children's bench at the Big R and just had to have it. All three girls fit nicely on it.

Hopefully we will be going to Conference in April. Tickets for conference are harder to get than Gonzaga tickets..
We have also been hit my numerous "Household" expenses. The van has had so much work on it that it should be considered a NEW vehicle.. Today Thaoe said that we may also need a new washer & dryer. I think he has been praying too hard for those New Orange ones... Well he may get his wish... Hope all is well and I am just getting the hang of this blog thing so more blogs to come.

Three grandaughters

4 Generations. Grandma Vasquez, Grandma Rodeback, Amber & Adyson.
We are also getting ready for Valentines day. We are dipping Fortune cookies and making cute chinese boxes to put them in. Crystal is making them for Josh's PT class. (We are using the boxes from her wedding... yes can you say we overpurchased the boxes!!! that was 4 years ago...).

Kalei eating the goods... and helping mommy dip the cookies.
Having two granddaughers within two months is exausting. I am sure Both mothers are exausted too... Here is also a picture of Kalei & Kamaile.

Our Festival of Lights Cruse






For our anniversary we got a festival of lights cruse. After Thanksgiving we went to Couer d'Alene, ID. It was difficult to get there because all the roads were closed for a parade and it was raining and snowing. Thaoe was also sick with a bad sinus infection. Here are a few pics of the lights that we saw, we also got to see fireworks on the lake... then we went shopping and returned home. Thanx again for the cruise we had a lot of fun!
