What the HAIL!

This past Saturday, April 28th we had a huge storm.  We had golfball size hail.  It was CRAZY!  Bella was looking out the sliding glass door and crying "My balls, my balls!" (she wanted to go outside and play with the hail that she was calling her balls) AND the dog thought someone was knocking at the door so he was running around the house barking!  What a night that was!







They're going to California...

Some very good friend of ours, Ken and Christy, are moving to California in May.  To celebrate them and how much they mean to us our "crew" went to Indy for a night.  We had a great time!  We will miss them so very much and so thankful for their friendship and the time we have had with them.

The 3D glasses had to make their rounds!

Isn't he the cutest?

Two of the most important men in my life!  LOVE them so much!

Garrett and Chloe...SO cute!

I think that's almost a smile on Garrett's face!  ;-)

Bubbles!

Check out my bubbles papa!

I love bubbles!!!!

The Zoo

How is it that we never get tired of going to the zoo, taking pics at the zoo, or posting about the zoo?  If you all are tire of it then I apologize.  You can skip to the next entry.  =)
Aren't they so sweet!

Can you see that they have their arms wrapped around each other?

My cuties!

At least one of them has a happy face!  Check out Bella's grumpy face and Garrett is looking like he is wishing I would put the camera away.  =)

Riding the elephant!

My loves!

One gorilla...

Two gorilla....

Two cuties!

It's my birthday too yeah

And of course we didn't let Bella open her gift until her birthday as well.  I think she loved it though!  =)
What is it?

Is there something inside Papa?

Again with the turning of the pic.  Grrrrrr

I see you mommy in my new tent!

Just chillin on the other side of the tunnel mommy.

Na na na na na na, they say it's your birthday...

We didn't give Garrett his present from us until his birthday.  He didn't enjoy the wait.  =)
Not sure why I can't turn this, or why it turned on it's own, but it did.  Sorry!

What is it?!?!?!?!

It's my ROXIO!  Now I can record myself playing videogames, add voice overs to them, and upload them youtube!  My mom is SO excited that she and Aaron got this for me!  ;-)

It's time to PARTY!

Easter fell on April 8th this year which was the day before Garrett's birthday and four days before Bella's.  So, like we always do we had our usual Easter/Birthdays dinner.  This year Bella wanted it to be a horsey theme.  Thank goodness she has an AWESOME brother that didn't care that his 14th bday was a horsey theme!  =)  Here are some pics from that day!
Horsey cake!

The packaging only had one R and one T for Garrett's name.  We had to make do with what we had. 



She got a BIG horsey that she could ride and she made sure she had on her jockey hat!  =)

Garrett and his gf Chloe

Skyla Marie trying to hide from me.  I don't think so!

Next thing you know it's Easter!

 Well, it always seems like I do well with updating the blog and then two months have gone by and I haven't posted anything!  WHOOPS!
Well, after the last post Bella got sick again.  =(  It was the second time she has had pneumonia since NYE.  I think this time we have finally gotten over the hump and are on the mend.  Where is something for me to knock on before I jinx us?!?!?! 
Anyhow, here are our Easter baskets and a pile of mess to go with them.  I only have a pic of Bella on Easter morning because our other two were with their other parents.  SO, Happy Easter!  HE is risen!!!!
