Catching Up! April 2011 (Part 1)

Whew! It's been awhile . . . like 6 months! I am so far behind on blogging I couldn't figure out the best way to get you all caught up . . so this is my stab at catch up blogging :) You are going to see the best pictures by month and probably 2 or 3 blogs per month. . . yep lots of pictures :)

Enjoy and check back often!

In early April we hit Eagle beach for the afternoon when the tide was way out. . .

Andrew hitched a ride in the wagon :)

Caitlin found a treasure. . . a very large sea shell!

The adventurer - extra tuffs and all~

Andrew's treasure. . . a golf ball :)

We even found a shell flower!A little picnic lunch~And crash. . . this is one tired boy!We spent quite a bit of time at the school playground next to our house. The elementary school is Glacier Valley and they have just the right sized equipment for the kids.Coming through!I swear she's part monkey!Oh the spider web - yep I'll admit it, it scares me a little bit!Andrew took on a little yard work . . . mowing the lawn for me :)He's a great helper!Mark and I painted the bottom of the boat this year -

April must mean "Time to get ready for FISHING!"

You can kinda see the before and after in this picture.
Trying on a new bathing suite from Grandma Viki!

Adorable!! Andrew had to get in on the picture action :) I even got a wink out of the kid!Another big project Mark took on this year. . . cutting down the cotton wood tree in our neighbors yard / our back yard.
Such a hard worker he is :) Have I mentioned I love this guy!!While he cut up the tree, the kids were playing dolls on our deck!Playing together so nicely! I love it!!

And I also couldn't help but comment on Caitlin's outfit, yep this is her pick! Hat and all, you've got to love a three year old's sense of style!!Andrew loves to drive already~Oh yes she did! Caitlin found a pair of scissors while playing in her room downstairs one day and cut her bangs! Right off the front! I swore that my kids would never do this!

It goes to show. . . if you say it won't happen, it will! LOL!

She was a trooper while my friend Jill fixed her up - this was officially her first haircut!

Before. . . .After :) Such a HAM!
I love the faces :)

We also spent some time at the Twin Lakes park - otherwise known to Caitlin as the Octopus Park (there is a large octopus cutout on a boat at the front of the park :)
Andrew making some music!
Running in the sunshine!
Caitlin is getting so good at riding her bike - she rode her bike while Andrew and I walked to the park and back to the car. . . we like to wear these kids out - they have so much energy!Bubbles in the front yard!
Even Brew was in on the action! Get um!!
:) And Caitlin on her bike again. . . there are quite a few of these pictures!
Up next. . . . Easter!! See you soon :)
