My new car!!!!

We got a new Audi A6 Wagon last wagon. It's a 2006 and pure fabulous-ness!! It's fully loaded and by far the nicest car I have ever drove. We are selling the WRX and BJ will be driving the Rubicon :) It's so nice to be able to fit us all in a car comfortably that isn't a total gas hog :)

Ryan Dam

BJ had to go up to check on some things at Ryan Dam. I hadn't ever been. It was really pretty! Can you imagine being Lewis and Clark coming upon this?!?! Great Falls of the Columbia River

Sketchy bridge we had to cross to get to the other side!

Well this sign is comforting.....EEK!

Childrens Museum of Great Falls

We were in Great Falls Tues/Wed with BJ. He had a safety seminar to attend so we tagged along. I almost backed out the day before since I felt like I needed to pack half the house just for an overnight. I figured I would get little to NO sleep between both kids. I went anyway with some convincing from BJ that a day away from cooking and laundry would be good for me. And boy was I shocked when both kiddos did really well! I found the Childrens Museum of Great Falls and decided to take them. It was super fun and I wish Butte had something so cool!! We had the place to ourselves, and stayed for an hour and a half. Right up until lunchtime when everyone was losing patients.

Even Clara got some playtime in...

They even had a pit filled with dried pinto beans....full of dino bones!!! This boy was in heaven!!

Cool river water to play with boats in...

The colors were so bright and cheery!

A whole bank set-up inside

Cash gave me a puppet show! That is his hand in the frog...

There was a full boat set up too. With a slide attatched

Clara playing Tic Tac Toe

Then big bro had to get in on the action...

So many fun things!!

This and That

A few pictures from bathtime last week. Clara was super tired, and when the girl is tired, the fingers go in her mouth!

Clara sitting pretty waiting for her next meal...

Both kids are starting to play together somewhat. Thought these were pretty cute!

BEST SHOT OF THE TWO KIDS....EVER!

I got this pic a few weeks ago, and don't think I have posted it yet....pretty cute! I love stripey jams!!

Easter 2012

Clara's First Easter! I was able to find a *pink* basket perfect for my girl this year. I had been picking up items for the kids easter baskets over the last few weeks. I tend not to go over the top for Easter, some kind of new summer item (suit for Clara and flip-flops for Cash), a book and some candy. After two little kids were tucked snuggly into bed I got to work.

Easter morning began at 6am when a certain sweet thing must have known it was her first! I propped her up on the couch like I had done with her big brother, and started snapping pictures to capture what she thought about her basket. Pretty sure those big eyes are letting me know, she was impressed!

Around 7am (holy cow!!!) Cash woke up in a great mood, ready to check out his loot! He was excited about the M&M eggs that were tucked in his basket. Afterwards he wanted to check out all the fun stuff Clara got.

We got all dressed up and headed to Bozeman for the day. Mom always has adorable baskets with all kinds of goodies for the kids every year. Cash and Ryan use Justin and I's baskets from when we were little, and Clara and Ryan got new ones this year.

BJ and Cashy checking out the loot from Nana and Grandpa

Cool new summer toy Nana got for the boys and Clara to play with this summer!

Then a little while later Ryan and Evan came over.

Clara hanging out...

The babies are getting so big!!!

Aunt An and Nana ate at the kids table this year so Saralyn and I had only one kid to tend to! It was very nice! And I'm pretty sure their conversations were much more interesting than ours were!!

Then wrapping up the festivities of the day was an Easter egg hunt. With eggs filled with yummy dark chocolate dove eggs, and plastic spiders :)

The boys and then a shot with Clara. It was pretty hilarious when after a few snaps of the camera Ryan said "ok, hurry up now!!! We are holding BABIES here!!!!"

Dad and I :)

Pretty Clara

My sweet girl and I

Love this shot that Mom got of her!

And finally.... A family picture of all 4 of us!!!
