Family is the best!!

April 9th, 2010

I am happy to say that we made it safe and sound to Idaho after 27 hours of travel.  Penny did great on the flights and in the airports!  She impressed everyone she met, and everyone remarked on how she is such a great traveler!  We were so excited to finally meet Beth, who is just as perfect as we thought she would be.  She is a beautiful, happy, wonderful baby!  Once we settled in Karin and Adam’s house Penny and Beth were excited to find some easter baskets that the bunny had left!  Penny was also excited to find 2 packages as well!  Thursday was our first day here, and while Tia Karin went to work, we all played.  We all ventured out to the Nez Perce museum and learned all about their tribe.  Penny loved looking at all the beaded work!  Enjoy the pics!

Happy Easter

April 5th, 2010

Though the weather was cold and dreary, we had a wonderful easter together.  Penny woke up to an easter egg hunt around the house, an easter basket, and a yummy breakfast.  We then went to mass at the cathedral and afterward played in the plaza.  Hope everyone had a wonderful easter as well!

COOKIE, COOKIE, COOKIE

April 3rd, 2010

Is Penny’s favorite saying.  She repeats it all day long!  So yesterday, after nap time, we decided to make some cookies.  Again, in the end more fun for me, but at least Penny will enjoy eating them!

Decorating Eggs

April 1st, 2010

Penny, Steve and I went to our friend Sandra’s yesterday to decorate eggs.  I was way more into then Penny, she just wanted to play or break the eggs, but we all had a great time and came home with some beautiful eggs!  Saturday we have an easter egg hunt to go to, I think that will be more Penny’s style!
