Spring Break in AZ!

One of my really good friends got married in Mesa, AZ so we took a road trip to go down to that and to spend some time with Russ, Vanessa, Anna, and Emma. We had such a great time playing outside in the warm Arizona sun! 

The day we drove down was actually Lily's 2nd birthday. So when we got there we partied hard!!! Yo Gabba Gabba style! 

Lily loved! The stuffed Yo Gabba Gabba toys she got from her cousins!

Enjoying the warm weather together!

My New Job As Chauffeur

Jack had a busy March. With preschool, swimming lessons, and indoor soccer my life seemed to rotate around this little guy. I don't mind though, Jack loves staying involved so I'm just accepting my new part time role as chauffeur to my kids! Jack actually got to do both swimming and soccer with his buddy Zander!

They didn't completely understand how the game worked...

which was ok, since they were so stinkin' adorable out there being clueless!
Jack did score his first goal of his soccer career. And I think it was because Grandma Sperry came to watch and so he felt pressured to show off his skills! Haha!

On the other hand, Jack and Zander did great in swimming! 

They both passed and get to go onto the next level!

We've had a nice little spring break, swim and tee-ball both start up this week!

Lily's 2nd Birthday

After going to Disneyland in January, Lily has been very interested in Minnie Mouse. So we threw her a Minnie Mouse party for her second birthday! It was was so fun to see her get excited with all the Minnie Mouse decorations and presents!!!

The Birthday Girl !

Birthday girl blowing our her candle (after the candle caught the cake banner on fire! ).

Making Minnie Mouse cookies!

 Opening presents! (Apparently I'm really excited about this one).

Thanks to everyone who came and helped make Lily's birthday so special!!!

Mucho March-o

Our March has been CRAZY. We've just been busy with so much, but it's been really fun. So I felt the need to compose a random blog post about our random month with tons of random happenings!

Madi and Kate's birthday party!

Jack's new short do!

Field trip to the Museum of Natural History with the preschool class.

Spending all day with Vienna on her first birthday!!!

We sold our natural gas Cavalier and bought some new wheels since John's working from home now and not commuting much anymore.

Visiting with the cousins after taking Lily's two year old pictures.

(And of course, she's stuffing her face because it was such hard work!)

And poor little Jack got chased around Gardener Village by a small flock of ducks/geese who know he had a bag full of bread in his hand.  

Apparently he wasn't handing it out fast enough!

Look close:

You can see Jack running.....                               and the ducks closing in on him...

It made for a good laugh  :)

Silly Robot Lily

The other day, Lily got into some pills at my brothers house while we were there visiting. So we took Lily in to the hospital as a precaution just to make sure she hadn't eaten any (which, luckily she hadn't). She was just a little charmer the whole time, she had all those male nurses wrapped around her itty-bitty finger. They had to stick her several times attempting to draw her blood to run some tests. So they left a line in her arm with some gauze around it in case they needed to take more blood later on. We just so happened to be watching Robots on t.v. as we waited for the test results, which Lily just loved, because she apparently thought she was becoming one herself with all this stuff hooked to her!
