We had Easter with Kory's side of the family on Easter Sunday. Emily and Zander had a good time playing together.
We made a yummy brisket for dinner and enjoyed having Bonnie & Tom, and Kacey, Tony & the boys over. Uncle Mark even stopped by for a visit - yes from Portland!! He just loves us that much :) Kidding - he was in town for work and we were so happy he joined us for Easter Sunday!

Emily picked out red for her first egg!!
The Easter bunny came and hid plastic eggs all around the yard for the kiddos to find.

We had a very nice Easter and love hosting our 1 holiday of the year :) It's always fun and we look forward to having everyone over at our house for once!
I found this video on my camera of Emily singing us a song - whenever she sings this song (which is almost daily!!) we say "Is there a whoopa in there???" and she totally cracks up. I have no idea where the whoopa came from but it's a riot!
Ha! Hope that made you laugh a little. We love our little girl. She is ALWAYS singing us songs.
Just this past weekend, Emily and I made a long weekend trip up north. It was our very first trip since last fall and we had a wonderful time! We left on Thursday after work and got there just in time for bed. Em does great in the car now that she is a little bit older. Then on Friday, we ran some errands and hung out with my parents. Friday night we went out for a delicious fish fry! YUM!!! On Saturday we went to the library and Em made a lure and listened to some fishing stories. It was a great free activity that we found. She loved it! On Sunday we hung out and went into town for a little bit. Did some fishing and then after nap I took her into town for some West's ice cream - the best on the planet! Oh I forgot to mention on Saturday night my mom & dad got out old photo albums and we sat on the floor for hours going through old pics. I haven't laughed that hard in ages. Em thought Grammy's hair dos were hysterical and she was very concerned that Grammy dressed mommy as a boy all the time. Ahhh the joys of the late 70's/early 80's. Ha ha!!!
Em all ready to go fishing...burrr it was cold and we didn't catch a single thing!

Ta da! Fishing lure complete - and yes it is a real lure with hooks and all. Kinda surprised that was an activity fit for preschoolers but Em did fantastic.
April seems to have gone by very quickly. I am very anxious for the warm weather and outside fun to get here. Hopefully soon!!!
