Last Day of Preschool

For the past 9 months Adelaide has attended the Happy Hearts preschool. She has loved it and learned so much. Teacher Nisha always had fun crafts, songs and activities to do. Adelaide was able to go on 3 field trips, first to the Fire Station, then Arctic Circle and lastly Cabela's.

First day of school.

Last day of school.

I love seeing how much she has grown and changed in the last 9 months.

What's been going on?

It's been awhile since our last post. So what have we been up to?

I had my eye checked. The results were as expected, Doc says I have eagle eyes!

We have been enjoying the lovely weather and playing at the park. It tuckers us out.

We have thought about potty training.

Richard and I celebrated our 5th anniversary. We spent the day together getting a couples message, having a steak dinner and walking around City Creek mall. That night we stayed in a hotel, it was a magical anniversary.

Fire and water fountain at City Creek.

There's been some super hero action around here. Daddy's are the best!

We love the arts. Painting is a common practice around here.

Richard, Amy and I did the Freedom 5K run. They throw color powder at you. It was lots of fun.

I'm 4 right NOW!

Adelaide is 4! We are so impressed with our little lady. She has been looking forward to this birthday for quite some time. For weeks all we heard was that she wanted a princess party with a mermaid cake. We slowly shifted to a mermaid theme party complete with our first pinata! Adelaide had a great time with her family and friends and is already looking forward to turning 5. Heaven help us. ;)

Easter 2013

Easter morning came early at our house and it was met with colds. Richard was the only one to escape the sickness. Therefore Easter was spent at home for us girls. Adelaide was up first and was happy to see the Easter Bunny had brought her a new Barbie movie. Gwen was excited from the moment she saw her basket. She promptly ate all her candy and tried to sneak more from the rest of our baskets. 

We are truly grateful for our Savior. Even though we weren't able to attend our church meetings He was on our minds and in our hearts.

The Easter Bunny didn't stop with baskets inside the house but left some outside too! (We have some awesomely sneaky neighbors!)

Happy Easter!

An Egg Hunt

Yesterday we headed to Grandma's work for an Easter egg hunt. The girls love spending time with Grandma and Pompa Williams. Plus this trip they made off with lots of candy!

Love that we were able to get this family shot.

Hope everyone is getting ready for Easter and Happy Spring!

Our little Monster turns two!

Over the weekend we celebrated Gwen's second birthday. Crazy to think she was 2 weeks old when we moved in. She is a joy and a handful. We love her so much and enjoy watching her learn and grow.

New Year and yes we're still here!

Happy 2013! Time as usual is flying by and it is already February and I this is my first post. I'm not sure anyone really reads this blog anymore, so perhaps it will be our last one too. We shall see. Anyway, the girls are blooming and having more and more fun together (usually). Richard is doing great at work and we may possibly have a big announcement soon. I chopped off 4 inches of hair and am trying to do the same to my waistline (only more). My grandpa Swasey passed away in January and I was honored to speak at his funeral. We are expecting some big changes this year. Hope you all have had a good start on 2013.

We don't go anywhere without Princess Celestia.
