Easter 2011

Isa and me at the Ester egg hunt at church, we got done just as the rain started.

Checking out the loot!

Look at this Daddy!

We all moved inside the gym where there were bouncy toys and face painting for the little guys to do.

Jumping around!

Waiting in line for the "big kids" bouncy toy with Daddy.

The Easter bunny left the basket with eggs and presents.  She got diving rings, modeling clay and the best... crab shaped swim goggles for the pool this summer.

Showing off her pie crust making skills... oh yeah, the goggles were on almost all day too.

Isa and the cousins.

Sam in the Easter clad wilderness.

A cool shot thanks to Miguel (nice job sweetie!).

After all the festivities it's time to go home.  She was asleep about 10 minutes after this picture was taken.

Isa in her Easter dress before any mud, sweat, or anything else got on it.  It was awesome.  Thanks Doug and Jami, Anna has great taste in dresses.  This is the picture of a little girl who's ready to party!

Easter Fun (and yet ANOTHER trip to the zoo)

Isa looking out at Daddy, I think I was working on lesson plans at the library.

As part of Miguel's home improvement, he turned what once was my sewing room into a giant pantry.  I love it, it's so handy to be able to find everything.

Isa in the pantry before the demo began.

Getting ready to roast some hot dogs for dinner with the Lorenz household.

A perfect spring day at the zoo out in front.

Auntie came with us and as always we visited the penguins and puffins- a must if you're there with the little miss.

A ride on the carousel was perfect too.  Auntie hopped on the elephant to the right once the ride started, and yes, I, 8 1/2 months pregnant, got on the bear to the left and rode.

Isa outside with the only jacket she'll wear right now because she can do the buttons all by herself.

Jammies and curlers, SOME little lady is getting ready for church and the Easter festivities tonight.  We can't wait for the egg hunt!

Neighborhood watch right here.  I hope she doesn't grow up to be one of those old ladies sitting around in her curlers nosing around in the neighbor's business.  I guess it all starts here.

Showing off her range of emotions, she goes from nosy old curler lady to surprised face.  This is something she's been working on- as in "Mommy look at me be surprised (insert surprised face)".
