We had a visit from Jenny, Ryan and Reese and Carissa. We had quite a great time and hated when they left.
Reese is quite a happy, content baby.

We went down to the 16th street mall (I made everyone stand behind these silly animals), we also went and bowled, played laser tag, miniature golfed, and rode bumper cars. Everyone over 10 and under 40 went to the show, most went to our outdoor zoo and we were introduced to "So you think you can dance" on TV. We had a great time and can't wait till they can come again.
Nathan is showing off his new metal-less mouth!

The girls and mom, and two of their friends, drove to Durango (just 370 miles away) on May 11th for a soccer tournament. This was the view from our condo -- beautiful!
Sammy,
Alex, and
Jessie all made up to play hard.
And play hard they did, the results weren't what they'd hoped for but they all played well and had a great time too.

Josh and Lexi! Bob went to Amsterdam again and all Josh got was that lousy t-shirt (jk)!!

April 24th: on my return from Montana this is what we get.
April 25th: the kids have a snow day from school.
Nathan and Sammy aren't working too hard!
Alex had to come in and unload the dishwasher. She wasn't happy, believe it or not she wanted to stay outside shovelling (I think she was actually playing/fighting with Sammy and Nathan).

I went for a girl's weekend with my friend Lynn to her place on Canyon Ferry Lake in Montana. It was a great weekend and I can't wait to go back in July when the weather's even warmer.
Another view from the back of the house.

Lynn and her mom (it is a nice picture Lynn).

We had Easter brunch at our club.

Our friends, the Stachlers, were nice enough to join us.

Although it looks like it at first glance we unfortunately were not able to take Carissa and Sabrina with us to Cancun (although we'd love it if we could)!
